I don't know, letting yourself down is one thing, but letting your teammates/brothers down is on a whole other level.

Goalies are mentally the toughest athletes out there.

Proof of Work & there's no second best.

Gretzky didn't master hockey. His skills wouldn't be able to compete against today's modern players. He was simply the best player at that time.

The best athletes in every sport compete against themselves. If you're the best, the only person that is worth competing against, is yourself.

This goes for hockey, MMA, boxing, and even the sp500 sports like basketball, baseball and golf.

No kidding. Other than degen traders, I don't think anyone who holds MSTR doesn't have Bitcoin.

Honestly, I'm at the point where if I talk to someone and they don't hold Bitcoin, I think they're fucking insane.

Hockey is Bitcoin šŸŽÆ

But I don't think golf is crypto, I think it's close to the SP500

Golf is nice for people who's fragile bodies can't handle a man's sport, like hockey. Golf if for the people who don't like volatility.

No disrespect, but it seems to me that the majority of people asking for this change, are the ones who didn't stack hard enough.

I don’t get it either. My sense is that the criticism of MSTR stems from the idea that it might divert people away from holding Bitcoin directly, encouraging them to invest in a security instead. However, I don’t think this is a reality, nor do I believe Bitcoiners should shy away from securities altogether.

From what I’ve observed, most MSTR holders already have Bitcoin. I’d be curious to know, outside of institutional investors, how many stockholders don’t hold any Bitcoin at all (maybe trader degens).

The only FUD that slightly resonates with me, as an MSTR investor, is the lack of proof of reserves. That said, the consequences of a scam at that scale make me "trust" the company and Saylor. It would be completely retarded for Saylor to rug-pull everyone—he’s far from being a retard. If you think he is, you might be a mid-wit.

Another FUD is the claim that Saylor will eventually sell his stash to "capitalize on gains." But doing it would effectively destroy his company. MicroStrategy’s entire business model revolves around holding Bitcoin on its balance sheet, giving it a monopoly-like position in bond issuance tied to Bitcoin.

It’s baffling how much hate Saylor and MSTR. As you said, no shit sherlock—a traded security isn’t the same as cold-storage Bitcoin. Thanks for the tip, as if none of us realized it before buying the stock.

Someone else holds your coins, but it's backed by smart contracts, so you don't have to worry about being rugpulled. Code is law.

If something goes wrong however, due to a mistake in the code, if you're important enough, they'll hard fork the whole decentralised and secured blockchain to give your coins back.

This method is much more energy efficient, as it does not boil the waters.

Plus, you can stake and make a yield. Bitcoin is just old tech.
