 Wild take: Do we have proof Saylor actually owns MSTR coins and they’re in custody without fractional reserving? Or is it just because of podcast appearances and very public paper disclosures under threat of prosecution that we trust him?

 Yes there is proof... They are custodied at coinbase and fidelity. Highly regulated exchange and broker. Anything is possible but you're jumping to the least likely conclusion because of your bias.

 Where ‘s the “proof”? You’re pointing to reputations as validation.

 I think we just have the announced totals from their disclosures. And fudging those disclosures is against the law. So we assume they’re accurate.

Could be wrong but I think that’s the case. Also, I’m not saying it is what is suppressing the price let alone suggesting it is happening…just pointing it out as a trust gap and an example of ways the price could be suppressed.

 Yes but they are regulated by SEC and their ETF holdings are monitored by multiple agencies and brokerages by demand of brokerages and by law. It would take a monumental conspiracy of hundreds of parties to fidge these number and is highly unlikely. That's all I'm saying.

 Please look into #Enron 
Even after the laws changed 
Look into how others gamed it. 

Some people did the numbers. They prefer to pay the fines ( even including prison ) knowing the laws. 

1% rules over the 99% & they take all. 

Hence the need to constantly learn & understanding history even as we live & change it. 🫂😘

 No. He’s not. He understands history and you obviously don’t.
