He only has to liquidate if individual contracts are calling the debt. The contacts are lattered.

Alright understood

The debt is issued as converts, if they call the debt, they receive equity shares, not cash.

I'm not saying the risk is 0, but, we've seen them deal with aggressive draw downs already, and they manage them quite well. It probably has to do with saylor's relationship with the other side of the trade and liquidity.

Yes but they weren’t this aggressive in 2022-2023

Fair. I wonder if the terms are disclosed in the 10k.

The liquidation risk is low because he has paid off all the debt he owed. All the new debt being issued are converts, meaning it is paid off in equity.

Once the converts mature, new shares are issued, so the risk isn’t one of liquidation, but rather dilution.

The only real risk is that the price of MSTR goes down, there isn’t a real risk that he becomes a forced seller of bitcoin, unless there is some operational cost that can’t be covered but the overhead is ridiculously low for the values he’s managing.

Basically all of the risk is on the individuals buying the converts as the coupon is 0 and the reward is equity.
