He’s not stupid. He’s latching onto the investment asset narrative of bitcoin as a trojan horse. No government would approve of giving up the monopoly of money.

when someone tells you who they are

believe them.

That's exactly right. Strategy is going to create new legal frameworks and banking products for insurance, loans, and earn yield.

To me, it's Bitcoin backed financial and insurance products, and likely loans, financing options, and so on.

Just because Bitcoin has a fixed supply, doesn't mean you can't make money from other people with your own Bitcoin.

It could be in the form of liquidity moves, ie: someone needs some quick Bitcoin to cover a trade or whatever, boom, Strategy has you covered.

He said never sell, he didn't say anything about never monetize or loan it.

yay

regulatory capture ftw

here is a graphic to understand yield

and he doesn´t even own any bitcoin to begin with. but that is a story for another time...

he trusts the state to enforce his property rights

another sign of a statist

Cope

Agree with this take, far from cope. If his proposal is accepted, the only thing that needs to change in the future for btc to be used as currency is a tax policy change. It’s easy to imagine this in 20-30 years. But you go in demanding it be a currency now, all of a sudden it’s a competitor to the $ and guns come out like we are Iraq trying to sell oil in Euros. It’s the smart play even if it seems like a sell out short term.

“bitcoin is trustless/permissionless and freedom money, but i get bent out of shape is someone does something with their bitcoin i don’t like, agree with, or understand.”

unfortunate state of many

bitcoin doesn’t need saylor or his detractors.

We don’t need their approval to win.

Agreed. And we don’t need Saylors approval either. Why not just lie to the SEC to accelerate bitcoin’s entrenchment in the system. Bitcoin is money anyway

Speak the truth.
