"Bitcoin is the best way to promote personal liberties and free markets. It offers an open protocol for prosperity that can be delivered to everyone via digital technology."
Did Saylor over-speak here, or is this accurate??

It is BS to get more people buy his bags.
Bitcoin as a Store of Value without privacy is the foundation for the CBDC.
Bitcoin was intentionally crippled so you can not use it as money on a larger scale. Do yourself a favor and read "Hijacking Bitcoin" by one of the earliest investors in BTC. It will give you a different perspective.
I've read Hijacking Bitcoin twice and was whelmed, but not overly so.
What else should I read about this?
Hmm, if it doesnt bother you that BTC is scaling through trusted third parties / custodians, which will just recreate the same system we already have (kyc, permissioned and controllable), i have nothing to add to this. It does not get any worse than that :)
A store of value which is not a medium of exchange and without privacy does not liberate us, it is just the foundation for the CBDC.
Saylor was under-speaking!
No he didn’t but he doesn’t self custody so 🤷♂️
If anything it’s too demure
