Even at All-Time Highs, MicroStrategy is STILL Buying Bitcoin + CEO Michael Saylor to Advise Trump on Crypto?


Michael Saylor, co-founder and executive chairman of MicroStrategy Inc., emphasizes his commitment to enhancing shareholder value through what he calls "intelligence leverage." By focusing on intelligence leverage, Saylor may aim to strengthen MicroStrategy's dual identity as both a software company and a major institutional player in the cryptocurrency space, particularly Bitcoin.

Saylor also talks about his willingness to advise the Trump administration on cryptocurrency representing a significant development in the intersection of policy and blockchain technology. As a prominent advocate for Bitcoin, Saylor has championed its role as a hedge against inflation, a store of value, and a critical element in the future financial system.

Michael Saylor Still Pushing Bitcoin after Stepping Down as CEO of MicroStrategy - Tells Elon Musk to "BUY MORE"...


Michael Saylor, a well-known Bitcoin advocate who had earlier announced his resignation as MicroStrategy CEO, responded to Elon Musk's ironic tweet about wanting to buy the Manchester United football team coin.

Saylor responded to Musk saying he'd 'prefer' if he bought more Bitcoin.

A better response would be something including reasons to buy Bitcoin, besides pleasing Michael Saylor... but okay.

Musk said in February 2021 that Tesla had purchased BTC for $1.5 billion and had begun taking it as payment for its electric vehicles. However, the payment method was removed in April due to contentious concerns about Bitcoin miners and the effects they were having on the environment.   

In spite of this, Tesla kept all of that Bitcoin until recently. In the second quarter of 2022, the corporation sold off 75% of its Bitcoin, leaving only $218 million in the cryptocurrency's balance. The corporation purchased Bitcoin for $31,620 and sold it for almost $29,000 per unit.

Musk says he hasn't sold any of his privately owned crypto...

Musk did clarify, though, that he was not selling his personal cryptocurrency holdings, only those that belonged to Tesla, the company. 

Musk has mentioned owning Bitcoin, Ethereum, and the coin he says he continues to buy more of, Dogecoin.

Michael Saylor steps down as CEO of MicroStrategy...

There's a shakeup at MicroStrategy as major Bitcoin bull Michael Saylor steps down.

His investments into Bitcoin are still likely to pay off big down the road, but he's being blamed for the losses on paper now.  Is this a sign those who will take his place don't understand this?

Will the person who takes his spot make the huge mistake of selling off their crypto?
