Yeah, sorry if my other post made it seem like I didn't get that. If I'm wrong then I'm wrong, but it seems like Saylor thinks it doesn't matter if it ever gets to the point that it becomes a viable medium of exchange. Maybe it doesn't, but unless we (the US at least) back the dollar with bitcoin how will it help regular people?

Imo saylor is very low signal, I wouldn't worry about Coinbase custodial maximalists have to say 🫡
Ppl gonna hate on me but until I see him shipping and supporting open source Bitcoin products idgaf what he has to say
Just goes on TV and encourages ppl to buy tops and institutions to take all the coins
Watching Preston Pysh's podcast with Parker Lewis and Will Cole and Parker Lewis summed up the friction of Saylor's view of bitcoin as a store of value. "The reason people don't take a fraction of their equity in a building on Fifth Ave to buy a cup of coffee is because a building isn't money. Money is property, but not all property is money. And that's the distinction between a store of value and money. Bitcoin can be both a store of value and it can be money."
But Will did make the point of saying Saylor has made himself very public with his accumulation strategy and that portraying bitcoin as primarily a store of value he's trying to not be perceived as someone that is trying to cripple the dollar. Doesn't mean the rest of us have to see it that way though.
