Microstrategy stock is down against Bitcoin today.🔴<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
It\u2019s over\u2026 right?🤷‍♂️<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
There is one singular person who is the most financially incentivized in the world to pump MSTR against BTC.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
That person is not you.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
That person is not me.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
That person isn\u2019t even that bullish guy you listen to who has 50x the shares as you.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
It is Michael @saylor.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
His net worth is 10,000x yours and he has 100x the experience you have in this arena.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
It is his job to manipulate his corporate currency (MSTR) up against BTC as long as possible.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Can he do it forever?\u2026 no.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Michael will not be able to grow against Bitcoin forever because to do so would result in a \u201cBitcoin company\u201d worth 100x more than Bitcoin.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
However, he can do it for a long time.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
My guess is he can do it better than you or I.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
If your time horizon is 1 day you shouldn\u2019t be in MSTR and if you\u2019re time horizon is 500 years you probably shouldn\u2019t be in MSTR.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
This is the Trojan horse stacking Bitcoin via the overvalued stock market\u2019s premium.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
There isn\u2019t infinite gas in the tank, but there is still a lot left.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
If you\u2019re scarred of the short term go to cash, if you\u2019re scared of the long term hold real BTC, but whatever you do don\u2019t follow your emotions.<\/div>\n
