Let’s say you are smlr, whenever MSTR does a massive buy and put upward price pressure, it also increases the value of SMLR‘s reserves, so they’re almost working as a team to pump as much value into bitcoin as possible and the more companies that do this, the more gets pumped into the price and the more their reserves increase in value

But that doesn't matter for shareholders of DTC IOUs
that's how i see it. it's like a pumped storage hydro facility.
all the hodlers were running up the hill with their jugs of water to fill the Bitcoin storage lake, and MSTR turned on their pumps, and now SMLR.
some people worry about what happens if the MSTR pumps break and the flow runs in reverse...
