Buying MSTR is no different from buying a shitcoin. You’re hoping other people fomo in because old money sees it as a safe bet, and they you can grow fiat and exit out in time to buy more bitcoin. This is exactly how the shitcoiners think. Of course, some never hope to get more bitcoin but many do.

Do as you please but don’t kid yourself reasoning away.

BTC itself is mostly a speculative gamble. Though, I believe there is an adoption 'floor' that, given enough time, will eventually catch up and bail out any mistimed speculation (at least, for the foreseeable future) - which supports the strategy to ignore speculation and just stack sats regardless...

what's happening with MSTR when Saylor dies?

Risk of MSTR, IBIT, GBTC managers being foolish or compromised is a huge red flag, compared to owning BTC directly. But don't discount the value of having an on-ramp for the vast majority of the savings of the average person -- locked into a closed-loop retirement system. I see a bigger potential ...

I'm not up to speed on all the financial jargon, but the whole MSTR thing seems more like a hedge fund to me than a company offering stocks. Maybe he's creating a mix of things that will work out well. Time will tell.
