Saylor has really been the Bitcoin Jesus of the last cycle, and I bet he's going to have the same status as Roger Ver after this one.
Question is, who's the next Bitcoin Jesus? Dual currency banking River CEO? Live on a Bitcoin standard but transact in fiat credit Strike CEO? Bitcoin strategic reserve maxis?
I don't really understand what you mean by Bitcoin Jesus.
If you mean that a bunch of dolts Brainlessly gobble up what he says and regurgitate it, then sure. But I've never thought of sailor as a great person in the space, especially considering how he always pushes for custodial options and calls for the ossification of the protocol.
The former, an idol that is eloquent and charismatic. Someone who's easy to listen to and believe, but their actions end up going counter to bitcoin's ethos.
Ah ok. Framed like that I can understand what you're saying. I always thought he was kind of an idiot, so I never really had the hero worship for him that a lot of people seem to have. 😅
Or maybe calling him an idiot isn't the right way of saying it. I don't think he's stupid And using his debt to buy Bitcoin has probably been a smart move for his company overall. And like you said, he's charismatic and good with words.
I hope there is no next "Bitcoin Jesus". I hope that people learn to thank for themselves and see these talking heads as something to ignore.
I'd always been kind of neutral to him and microstrategy. Hours of his podcasts went into the meat grinder of my brain with hundreds of others over the years. I'm just getting this weird whiplash in his change in demeanor/narrative now. His heart doesn't seem in it when he talks about Bitcoin as the savior of fiat.
