Think he announced those sales ahead of time, can't remember the exact reason, but I don’t think it was shady. But that doesn’t mean we should trust MSTR blindly, either.
Hey Chris, please scroll to the bottom of this page https://finviz.com/quote.ashx?t=MSTR&p=d
It lists constant selling of MSTR shares by M. Saylor. So on the one hand he's making valid rock solid undeniable points about BTC and MSTR, but on the other hand he's selling every 5000 MSTR shares awarded to him!? Does this make sense? Even if he needs 200Mln for his yacht or a new mansion, why not borrow it with his shares as collateral? Wasn't the basic idea to short fiat instead of going long?

Hey Chris, no matter how hard I try to come up with a reason for Saylor to sell his MSTR awarded shares, I just cannot find any. His selling goes against all points he makes in his numerous videos. Or maybe... Let's assume he's short USD to his eyeballs on his personal account and apparently can't roll over that debt. Then maybe it makes sense to sell his shares. But then again, how hard can it be to refinance, even at 20%, if you hold an asset growing 30+%. It starts to feel like "Do as I say, don't do as I do".
