Very odd considering he is already CEO of Strike which is not a fully developed company.

What is odd about it? And what is a fully developed company? What do you mean?

I mean they are still expanding to new markets and into different product offerings. One would presume Strike would eventually like to be public. So it is odd that the CEO of a company still in growth mode would split time on another venture. I think when Dorsey split time between twitter and square, twitter was a much larger and more mature company than Strike is. Strike is still a startup.
@BlokchainB is an investor. How do you feel about Jack not focusing 100% on Strike?

Jack is a smart guy and he talks about being an avid chess player.
Maybe he is playing 4d chess to beat Jamie Dimon in his arena. He’s coming in with some major players with connections and deep pockets. So I have a hard time believing he will just abandon strike but I do think the fiat printer can cloud judgement which is a bigger risk.

I am not suggesting he isn't going to do well at 21 just that it might negatively impact Strike's potential.

Thanks. I suspect the $$$$ are the reason. Mallers is confident and he may be making a mistake. Maybe not.

Odd but their plans are big. To me the bigger surprise is Tether's more and more involvement in Bitcoin in recent days.

Tether has been deeply involved in btc since the beginning. Few companies stand to benefit more than they from btc appreciation.
