I'm still listening to this Saylor interview by Saif and I dunno why, but Saylor sounds like a retarded fiat brain to me now.
Discussion
He was interesting the first year but then was repetitive and the dick riding is so wack
hes still halfway in the matrix.
something to me hints about flying to close to the sun and got snagged. But i havent kept up with him to be confident about that
He’s a statist that makes his money off government contracts with feds on the board of MSTR

Saylor has really been the Bitcoin Jesus of the last cycle, and I bet he's going to have the same status as Roger Ver after this one.
Question is, who's the next Bitcoin Jesus? Dual currency banking River CEO? Live on a Bitcoin standard but transact in fiat credit Strike CEO? Bitcoin strategic reserve maxis?
I don't really understand what you mean by Bitcoin Jesus.
If you mean that a bunch of dolts Brainlessly gobble up what he says and regurgitate it, then sure. But I've never thought of sailor as a great person in the space, especially considering how he always pushes for custodial options and calls for the ossification of the protocol.
The former, an idol that is eloquent and charismatic. Someone who's easy to listen to and believe, but their actions end up going counter to bitcoin's ethos.
Ah ok. Framed like that I can understand what you're saying. I always thought he was kind of an idiot, so I never really had the hero worship for him that a lot of people seem to have. 😅
Or maybe calling him an idiot isn't the right way of saying it. I don't think he's stupid And using his debt to buy Bitcoin has probably been a smart move for his company overall. And like you said, he's charismatic and good with words.
I hope there is no next "Bitcoin Jesus". I hope that people learn to thank for themselves and see these talking heads as something to ignore.
I'd always been kind of neutral to him and microstrategy. Hours of his podcasts went into the meat grinder of my brain with hundreds of others over the years. I'm just getting this weird whiplash in his change in demeanor/narrative now. His heart doesn't seem in it when he talks about Bitcoin as the savior of fiat.
For anyone confused about whether it’s better to hold the underlying asset vs. the fiat abstraction, remember, it’s “stack sats”, not “stack strats.”
The reason he’s doing it is for fiat.
That’s why he makes half-backed arguments because he knows it’s valuable but he might not believe in individual sovereignty, or if he does that’s not a pressing issue.
If something is your main crop you’re not going to attack it, you’re going to do what you can to keep making money off of it.
"So you're saying Saylor just wants to breathe new life into the fiat system?"
