It may seem that way to small fish but as long as you run your own node and validate your own transactions it will be very difficult for MSTR to have massive influence
But if 3% of the supply is in the hands of a public company and if we add to that the BTC that is in the hands of governments, custodians and ETFs, decentralization is no longer as real as it seems even if we validate blocks from home. It's not being pessimistic, but rather putting our feet on the ground a little. We are so anxious for governments to adopt BTC as currencies that I see it as if we are fighting for them to control us. I don't know, it's from my point of view. Maybe I'm wrong.

We can’t predict the future but 3% of the supply is still minor plus MSTR doesn’t control all the nodes out there nor the miners. Plus the incentives are different from the node runners, miners, and institutional holders. If MSTR is a bad actor and try to do something only in their best interest or the governments the miners and node runners may not agree and MSTR and lose in a major way.

Interesting, I really still have a lot to learn. Thanks for helping me understand a little better.
I need to study more.
