 I agree with you. But the central banks buying of gold is a real thing. I also think he agrees with us deep down. But his self-assigned role is to appeal to gold bugs who are even more stuck in their ways than him. On balance, he's easily a positive influence on the movement. I know he's helped me a lot  
 Imagine cheering on an alliance with central banks. 
 Central banks buying gold is bullish for gold. Also, even bitcoiners would support central banks buying Bitcoin if we're being honest  
 My view - both of these guys have some interesting macro stuff to say, Luke Gromen especially, but incentives matter. Both of them essentially get paid for not being a Bitcoin maxi, like all investment professionals. 

Why? There’s not much of a career in it - and never will be - as the strategy never changes, until everyone starts to switch from saving in Bitcoin to investing again in equities that can return a positive outcome vs Bitcoin. 

Until that point, Saylor got it right - there’s no such thing as diversification when the solution you’re after is the answer to an engineering problem. 
 That's fair
