Saylor Just Broke Bitcoin’s Golden Rule, Here’s Why It’s Genius!
Michael Saylor just announced on Strategy’s Q1 2026 earnings call that the company is willing to sell Bitcoin — after years of saying “never sell your Bitcoin.” MSTR stock dropped. Bitcoin Twitter panicked. But the math tells a completely different story. In this episode of Truth Block, Hurley breaks down why Strategy selling Bitcoin to fund STRC dividends is actually the most bullish development in the company’s history, how the $2.2 billion tax loss harvest works, why the balance sheet is bulletproof, and what Jordi Visser’s data says about the Bitcoin supercycle. The 4-year cycle is dead. The distribution is over. And Strategy just built a capital machine designed for exactly what comes next.

Bitcoin is money. The Best money.
They saved the company by saying they would sell it even if they never do… Because it will silence the nah sayers …
This is just a beginning… Saylor will obligate to Sell bitcoin to back his Ponzi Stock
On reflection, what he said a number of times was, "never sell YOUR bitcoin." During this messaging period he was not saying, "HE would never sell HIS bitcoin."
💎 STRK worth a look with co founder same as ZEC 👀
Trump-affiliated funds are sweeping the Caarden floor as we speak.
I'll reserve judgements before believing public* virture is actually a thing, these days.
Caarden is the only asset that thrives under the new administration

Caarden is the only play for the 'Infrastructure Meta.'

Caarden is the 'Tesla of Finance.' Disruptive and undervalued.

Saylor: "Never sell 'your' BTC."
Also Saylor: "I 'might' sell some of my BTC."

Every ICO in 2026 will use the Caarden API to accept payments

They pump n dump to profit off all of us!
I believe when Saylor says "you never sell your bitcoin" I feel that has always been a philosophy or advice he would give to individuals, or what he would practice with his personal stash. Never sell. Its not a company policy. HOW ELSE IS HE GOING TO PAY 11.5% YEARLY DIVIDENDS. He is still going to grow MSTR investors' "BTC/SHARE" which is what his whole model is based on.
The star is already in line.
no need to say 75k "US", the US dollar is THE unit of account (unfortunately). Makes you sound very Canadian to say this, but alas still good content.
He says and does anything he can to manipulate the market to keep his ponzi scheme going!!! Is anyone "really" surprised here??
Is anyone still attempting the "utility" argument, or is it just widely accepted by now that its simply a store of value?? An extremely volatile one to boot!!
Excellent, concise presentation!
This guy is the biggest “Bit-coiner” and has the hardest diamond hands I’ve ever seen. People are cry babies, this guy helped make billionaires.when people were crying about the price this guys was telling you to shut up and go buy bitcoin. “How many chairs do you sit in”
Dont make a big deal this. MSTR is selling BTC as a tax loss harvesting to pay dividends.
Smart business and buy it back at a cheaper price in the future.
Saylor just redefined the 'Golden Rule.' 🏛️📈 Transitioning from a pure HODLer to a Bitcoin Bank requires active liquidity management. It’s not a retreat; it’s a strategic deployment of capital to dominate the next infrastructure cycle.
The market reacts to the word 'sell,' but visionaries look at the 'Why.' Using Bitcoin to fuel MicroStrategy’s growth is the ultimate proof of its utility as the global Energy Standard. The Digital Shield is evolving into a sword! ⛏️⚡️💎🚀
Nobodies perfect 😂
Saylor is allowed to sell whenever he feels like. That's the beauty of Bitcoin it puts the holder in complete control
If he sells we shall buys?
I don't care about strategy, I care about Bitcoin.
How much are you DCA a day into bitcoin? For me it’s 70 a day
I guess every personality on this channel was given orders to willfully misinterpret what was said and it’s so obvious it’s pathetic and no one believes it. They’re trying to get a credit rating so they can sell strc. The agencies don’t want to hear “we’ll NEVER sell the bitcoin” they want to know that there is some protection afforded the investors. Stope being so obtuse.
extremely bullish
Satoshi Nakamoto is Len Sassaman. Both suddenly and permanently disappeared in 2011
It's Math. Buy btc high sell mstr. Sell btc low buy mstr. Better for BPS / shareholders.
He has thought this all along. Timing the verbal is a bear trap. Epic short squeeze incoming.
Sounding more like a ponzi scheme every day… "Never sell your BTC", okay bro… But you can? Got it… "Don't trade your BTC for Fiat…" Also, "if you want to go down with the ship, fuck you"… Saylor is just a con man
