Who is buying up all of Microstrategy's debt that enables them to pursue this strategy?
reply
This. I can’t fully comprehend this. In my view this is so risky at this point.

It’s essentially a call option on the Bitcoin price within standard debt markets - given the convertible nature to MSTR equity. Appears like plenty want a piece of it - hence the interest rate at under 1% pa!

Pretty f'ing smart of Saylor it seems. Not quite in the spirit of Bitcoin (imo), but smart nonetheless

Feeble-minded fiat folks?

Risky if you have high time preference or don't understand bitcoin.

I am sure Saylor understands Bitcoin, I am not sure about the people and investors giving him money. They could directly buy Bitcoin themselves, couldn’t they? Instead they trust someone? I don’t trust Saylor whatsoever.

They are likely pretty much all instutional investors with mandates they need to operate within - such as only buying dollar denominated bonds. So it’s very unlikely to be a straight choice for them between these bonds and buying Bitcoin.

Sure, I see what you are saying.

Michel's hunger is insatiable, I have no clue when it will stop.
reply
Why would it stop? The rules of the game are clear: get as much BTC as possible.
As an individual you can stop stacking to retire and start living if that's what you desire. But he has a fiduciary duty against the shareholders, he can't stop and disappoint them. A pussy stock is not what they signed up for. They signed up for a ballsy, gigachad one.

They crossed main target. We want 300k sats, maybe 1 Bitcoin as unbelievable target. Michael moved through 1% of total 2140 year supply

I think that was always his initial goal…. Who knows where it will end though…
