I do wonder though whether what Saylor is doing is actually unhelpful in the long run. What if his (and other large Bitcoin whales) holdings create opportunities for even more of "The Machine" control over all of our daily decisions? (and I'm speaking of 50-100yrs hence)
What if having lots of Bitcoin in the post-fiat hegemony creates a bunch of even more secure oligarchs (whether individuals, trusts, or business/state actors) which cannot be criticized or else all the scarce resources they will control (minerals, food production, land rights, water rights, energy, etc.) can be restricted from purchase by the criticizer. Hmmm🤔
