He’s a new Bitcoiner so he still has much to learn, even though he has a loud megaphone
Michael Saylor thinks #bitcoin is #capital, not #currency, and would like to see the world adopt the digital U.S. dollar as #money instead.
I vehemently disagree with his perspective.

Not that new
He started buying in 2020 and was anti Bitcoin previously
Almost 5 years is about a third of #Bitcoin’s existence
He also owns about 2% of the supply of bitcoin.
I’d say he’s had his time and reason to study what Bitcoin is extensively.
It’s also interesting that after 15 years we have yet to see it widely adopted as currency, and the peer to peer cash system that the white paper laid out.
This lack of clarity in use case makes it easy to see how the Saylor’s of the world can imprint their own narratives on what they hold.
Would love to see the mass adoption and democratization that connects to Satoshi’s original mission and thesis.
