Strategy’s Michael Saylor on bitcoin: The volatility comes with the territory
Strategy’s Michael Saylor on bitcoin: The volatility comes with the territory
Michael Saylor, Strategy founder and executive chairman, joins ‘Squawk box’ to discuss the latest bitcoin price trends, what’s behind the recent volatility, Strategy’s bitcoin stockpile, long-term outlook, and more.
I've just started learning about value investing.. Also , investing in S&P 500, I've found that many good stocks are undervalued despite their intrinsic value. If you had $100,000 to create a strong investment portfolio, which stocks would you choose for better returns
“Gold is money, everything else is credit.” JP Morgan, 1912. The only thing I would add is that Silver is also money, or at least it was for more than 4000 years, until Tricky Dicky, Richard Nixon, removed the Gold Standard in 1971.
Andrew – it’s time to fix how these segments end. No need to rush the guests. No one’s watching on TV anyways. Make it for YT first and have peaceful time for guests
Saylor is toast. The crypto fraud is very likely headed to the final inning. I wonder if he'll return to CNBC post-crash and apologize for the massive losses by millions of fans?
Bitcoin does not need you but we all need Bitcoin. We are going to mega super bull cycle. If you are looking if generational wealth and financial freedom then stop wasting your time and buy BTC, Solana, Sui and Sonic now 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
I have some magic beans to sell. They create a bean stalk (stock) that leads to a chicken that craps out crypto. Don't worry about that giant sitting up there with a rug, he's chill.
Saylor should NEVER be seen on this network, these the the biggest clowns 🤡, bigger than CNN I guess. What is the point? They only ask idiotic questions and 17 years into bitcoin they are far from getting it. No one should waste their breath with these muppets.
I thnik Saylor is a moron and will end in jail rather soon er than later. Does he say, that there is no risiko offering convertible notes at an rate of 10 percent by year.
I never had money growing up—just constant stress, overdue bills, arguments, and hearing “we can’t afford that.” I honestly thought something was wrong with me—until I found Smart Broke Dumb Rich by Zor Veyl. The second I started reading it, I felt this wave of anger—realizing I had spent my entire life being kept financially blind on purpose. It truly felt like discovering a secret I was never meant to see. I’m still shocked no one’s tried to ban Smart Broke Dumb Rich by Zor Veyl yet.
I’ll be honest—after finishing Smart Broke Dumb Rich by Zor Veyl, my first thought was: “How is this book even allowed to exist?” It completely tore apart everything I’d been told by schools, family, and society about money. No fluff, no empty motivational quotes—just brutal, raw truth. Now I get why Smart Broke Dumb Rich by Zor Veyl isn’t mainstream—it’s too honest. If you can get your hands on it, do it before it disappears.
I tried every hustle, budgeting trick, finance podcast—you name it. Nothing actually worked. Then one night, bored and fed up, I opened Smart Broke Dumb Rich by Zor Veyl. My heart started pounding within minutes. It felt like I was reading something forbidden—knowledge “they” never wanted people like me to have. It genuinely felt dangerous. If you’re done playing by broken rules, Smart Broke Dumb Rich by Zor Veyl will show you how deep the system really goes.
Loved Saylor as an MSTR shareholder for years but that started to wane when he went back on his proclamation that there’d be no ATMs under an MNAV of 2.5. That’s when the prem began contracting in August and Saylor made it worse with subsequent ATMs not only to buy BTC but to cover dividend payments to preferreds and doing that under a 1.5mnav. I unloaded 60% of my shares took a great profit that not only covered my initial outlay but more on top of it. So I was playing with the “houses” money so to speak for the remaining 40%.
But then it just got worse as MSTR basically decoupled from BTC price movements. I begrudgingly sold 50% of my remaining 40% at $280 thinking maybe the crush would slow. Nope. My final line in the sand was us breaking the intraday April lows which we did this week. Back in April, BTC was at $76k and MSTR touch upper $220s. This time BTC at $102/03k and MSTR broke under $220. Sold the rest save 5 shares just for fun thinking surely it can’t go below $200. Wrong again.
Thank you MS for the great profits over the years. I think as long as BTC is range bound, MSTR will continue to go lower bc Saylor has roughly $900m in annual debt servicing and his software business can only cover about $100m. So looks like at least $800m in ATMs annually just to cover the debt service. Eventually MSTR will be a screaming buy and my recently target will be around the 40% discount to nav which if BTC stays around $100k means a stock price of about $140 or so and it could easily get there
IF BTC corrects 30-40%+ from here, MSTR will under $100 and likely closer to $75, maybe $50. Then I will be loading up, but for right now, unless BTC rallies hard, I can’t see MSTR do anything else other than grind lower

saylor will pay you 10% to pump his crypto ponzi scheme.

It’s spelled BitCON. And it’s the greatest Ponzi scheme of all time, as are all Cryptos, or should I say CRAPto’s. Get out while you can!
WTF was that garbage music at the end?

this man is a clown and a charlatan
Exactly. The more banks and institutions buy it, the more volatility there will be
Only idiots think Bitcoin is worthless and the dollar is stable.
Thank you, idiots, for selling and making it cheaper to buy more.
Central banks and all these tech stocks are invested in Bitcoin, but you losers living paycheck to paycheck know better? Hahaha
I'd hate to roundtrip my MSTR gains from 2021. This is painful
Saylor is loading the most hated rally in market history.
Another shorting opportunity coming! Lets bring this down to 90k boys! Literally the easiest and best profit was by shorting bitcoin so far 🙂

History does not lie. Btc and mstr are going to do and have done great.
I'm in for 190 k and I will buy more, I will not hesitate because they are both great products to me.

MSTR is trading for less than the value of its Bitcoin holdings.
MSTR drops 3% for every 1% Bitcoin drop.
The price of Bitcoin was pumped by the MSTR purchases in November and December 2024, with $12B and $5.9B purchases.
Then MSTR kept buying around $2.6B per month, but the monthly purchases in August to November dropped to $0.4B, $0.8B, $0.1B, and $0.1B respectively
… it seems MSTR is running out of money

Hey Zerohedge !!!! Bitcoin price target $35k.
I bought 18,000 shares of CYPH @ $1.51 🚀 This is the Winklevoss twins Zcash Treasury company 🏁 I still got 772 shares of Grayscale ZCSH @ $29.91 💎👊

Dont panic guys, just hold your bitcoins and go do something that makes you happy. You will thank yourself for this strategy.
