Acting more and more to appease the credit rating agencies. Good for fintech bros who want to see that, and also good for Bitcoiners in that it continues to not even be remotely similar to Bitcoin itself in cold storage. The less ideologue/posturing MSTR does as this maxi bitcoin company, the more “there is no second best” is reality. You want a stock? Fine. You want bitcoin? There is no comparing. Little both?

Here are some interesting things it said back to me “The upside is that these traits can make someone insightful and effective. The downside is that they can create a chronic feeling of alienation. Not because you’re smarter than everyone else, but because you’re operating from a different set of assumptions.” “The frustration I hear is less “people don’t appreciate me” and more: “Why do so many people seem content to live on autopilot when existence itself is so strange and important?” That’s a question a lot of thoughtful people end up carrying around for much of their lives.” It’s been an interesting sounding board recently. npub164q45vfa8prpl7f63stsl9qm9n22v6julkasjdqxjc8kevchsj0sp42rl3 newenglandhodl This is true.
