 I suppose MSTR is going to be offering you %5 risk free on your #Bitcoin? Is that what's going to be happening? 

Lol What happened to his inscription DID product?

 do you think they can't walk and chew gum? 
 Very few businesses who move away from their core offering tend to live long enough to share those lessons 
 I think DID and banking services go hand in hand. So I don't understand what you mean. 
 At this point they could do whatever they want. With that massive bitcoin treasury everything's possible  
 Ofcourse he can, I just didn't see that this was the end come to pivot to becoming a financial services company, I thought they were like a BI company 
 the bi company was stagnating 
so he did BTC 
if u work there now in the BI part it's probably demoralizing  
 I get the BI company has hit a ceiling and there's not much you can do with it to ramp up your company market cap with it, but if you have a perfectly good business that generates cash flow, and you can stacks sats like he has done surly you don't need to change a winning formula 
 From his convo with Saif, it doesn't sound like Saylor wants to loan bitcoin to anyone except "too big to fail" banks, effectively willing to maximize his return with the expectation taxpayers will bail him out when the banking system's rehypothication all goes wrong. 

Nothing illegal with borrowing or lending, and I appreciate Saylor's transparency, but his willingness to dump his tail risk on innocent taxpayers, just so he can earn an additional 5%, is NOT consistent with bitcoin's reason for existence, which is a protest against harmful bailouts and the  rehypothication.

People just need to realize Saylor and MSTR's greed and outsized risk appetite fuels the type of destruction which bitcoin is designed to avoid. He is not a maxi. 
 Yeah I listened to that poddy and the way I see it is he wants to use Bitcoin to milk the existing system for all its worth, and you know more power to him, keep gobbling up Bitcoin and giving over custody to 3rd parties and hope it doesn't bite you in the end

I see it as his chance to position his company as one of the biggest in this space, he has done well with the current strategy but trying to tack on leverage has never worked out well and maybe its a case of becoming too complacent 
 Pop me a link or a clip I'd like to see what they're doing, only thing I saw him offering was LN enabled addresses and that DID service, what else is he venturing into using BTC?
