 Saylor orange pilled me in 2020, so I’m a huge fan. BUT his comments in the interview were damaging. Self custody is critical to BTC’s future and Saylor is not. He can go F himself if need be.

 💯
I also think hes a smart guy and he’ll be very subversive from here on out because nobody has ever questioned him before.  
His business model is threatened by self custody. 
I expect him to keep moving further away from our self interests to protect his own.

 I think you also need to consider the audience he was addressing in the interview: which are large institutional players, pension funds etc. I don’t believe @saylor is against self-custody. It’s just not for everyone. Not for his target audience, that’s for sure. I think he knows exactly what he is doing. The man has done tremendous good for #Bitcoin and l believe he will continue to do so.

it's never a majority that moves the needle, it's the top tier
