I think what he’s doing is very smart.
He has a huge fiat cash problem, and he’s dumping it all into bitcoin. Where else are you going to put it?
So many people can’t stand Saylor either because they’re jealous or they just don’t understand what he’s doing.
If I had a shitload of cash, I’d be pouring it right into bitcoin just like he’s doing.
He’s figured out a way to play the fiat system legally, generating a decent return for fiat maxis, and at the same time taking all the profits and buying the best asset know to mankind.
Everybody wins IMO
People are like:
“Fix the money, fix the world.”
And
“MSTR is a shitcoin, it creates nothing of value.”
Dude, MSTR is raking in billions in fiat every week and converting it sound money. It’s telling the normies, you might not believe in sovereign money, but if you use your fiat to buy some, I’ll give you 10 percent tax deferred forever.
IOW, he is building a tool to get normies to put their fiat toward sound money whether they believe in, understand or are interested in it or not.
Naive retards are like, “we just have to get the average person to understand the perils of fiat money creation and the downstream effects.”
The average person does not give a fuck and cannot be bothered. You must offer people what is in their interest, not convince them that it is “morally” right.
In fact, seeing fiat/bitcoin as a *moral* question is a real impediment IMO. People, being retarded, want to believe they are “good”. So just like some neoliberal who hates “transphobes” and loves oppressed people and illegal immigrants in order to feel good about himself, even the bitcoiner fancies himself “good” for loving sound money and rejecting fiat.
You are not “good” for being on Team bitcoin or Team Jesus or Team Gay or whatever. It’s all fake and pathetic. You are not good for your “correct” beliefs or your lack of wrongthink. That is all just some bullshit you tell yourself to prop yourself up. It’s fake.
The reasons for wanting sound money to prevail are not because that makes you a “good” person. It’s because it is in your self interest to live in a thriving, prosperous society where value is exchanged voluntarily and based on merit. One where governments and NGOs are not siphoning off some giant percentage of the energy to control and destroy you. It is in your interest.
IMO, MSTR is one of the biggest catalysts toward that interest. I could be wrong, of course, but if I am wrong, it’s not because “fiat = bad, and stocks are fiat.” Of that I’m certain.
