Saylor should now be considered a hostile actor against Bitcoin. In case he wasn't before for you.

Saylor's going to gaslight folks into believing that self custody is bad and we shouldn't continue improving the protocol because he wants you to buy $MSTR and regulated ETF products. As I've been warning image

Against bitcoiners. If the government deserved our trust Bitcoin wouldn't exist. No one's Bitcoin is truly safe unless you hold your own keys.
Of course, he has said many truths. These truths existed. Bitcoin is a culmination of decades worth of thought and execution. He is a bright guy with his own plan, just as we all formulate our own plans. Now he’s accumulated vast amounts and is pushing his ‘Saylor model’ in corporate world it doesn’t mean we should all forget about the self sovereignty. Nostriches, I would guess are not keen on that. His put down of true Bitcoiners is unnecessary. It was those Bitcoiners who secured the network through many years of uncertainty to get it to where these Knob’eads can rinse it
I think his takes on self custody are ridiculous at best and evil at worst. It doesn't mean he has never made a good point. For example, I think he's right that every company should keep sats in their treasury and I wish the one I work for did the same ... Also think forever Laura and there is no second best are true

Definitely not in it for freedom that's for sure. Holds MicroStrategy BTC in coinbase too. Not a fan.
How do arrive at naive? MIT (CIA?), DuPont, Billionaire, CEO, using other people’s money to buy #Bitcoin, Banks and Government is your friend, one of three US institutions printing money and holding Bitcoin, calling Bitcoin property (only) but USD is MoE…
Bitcoin is for enemies as is said. The incentives are too good not to get involved. Just don’t put down real Bitcoiners, not a good look.
Naive because he doesn't understand economic implications of an ideological driven scarce asset. He thinks he can play fuck fuck games and not lose. He will learn through pain.
