Michael Saylor Shrugs Off Bitcoin Rumor with a Wink: “We’re Aggressively Buying!”

Markets

What to know:

  • Michael Saylor reaffirmed his firm’s continued bitcoin accumulation strategy amid rumors that the company was selling BTC as its stock plunged.
  • “We are buying bitcoin,” said Saylor in a CNBC appearance.
  • MSTR was lower by another 4% in early Friday action, trading below $200 and now down almost 35% year-to-date.

Oh, the sweet sound of rumors swirling in the wind! 😏 Executive Chairman Michael Saylor, ever the voice of reason, has chosen to drown out the cacophony of chatter with his signature calmness. The man is sticking to his guns-no, not selling bitcoins, but rather continuing his “aggressive” accumulation strategy as his company’s stock continues its steep descent.

“We are buying bitcoin,” Saylor announced, straight-faced as usual, during a Friday morning appearance on CNBC, perhaps considering the unholy mess of rumors that had already begun their rampage through the internet by that point. “We’ll report our next buys on Monday morning,” he added, implying that whatever the market thinks, he’s got a plan. 🤑

Indeed, it’s a bit amusing, isn’t it? Rumors had spread like wildfire earlier that Strategy (MSTR) was selling bitcoin-because, obviously, when a company’s stock crashes and bitcoin seems to slide, that’s the logical explanation. I mean, why wouldn’t they sell their precious BTC when both their stock and the coin are crumbling? 💸 But wait! Saylor quickly dashed these theories like an old newsboy rejecting a dime in the rain.

“There is no truth to this rumor,” he tweeted shortly after his CNBC appearance, making sure to take his stance once more in case anyone had missed it. 🧐 And, despite his company’s fortunes dropping-MSTR is down a staggering 35% year-to-date-Saylor seems utterly unruffled. Bitcoin might be tumbling, but in the eyes of Saylor, it’s still a diamond in the rough.

And here we get to the sweet irony: while the market is fretting over the apparent doom, Saylor calmly advises investors to “zoom out.” After all, the price of bitcoin was only in the range of $55,000 to $65,000 just a year ago, and yet it’s still sitting pretty at a cool $95,000. Hm, sounds like a win to me. 💎

“We’ve put in a pretty strong base of support around here,” Saylor added, his confidence unshaken, even as MSTR slid another 4% down the slope, trading below $200. I mean, seriously-who else can claim such a track record of coolness under pressure?

Bitcoin, too, is no stranger to drama. It’s dipped and dodged, but despite a recent slide, it’s still holding its own, sitting just 5.8% lower than it was a day ago. And let’s not forget that Saylor’s company holds over 641,000 BTC-worth a staggering $22.5 billion, mind you-though it seems the stock has fallen below that value. A gap, some might say, that makes MSTR undervalued, while others might call it “an opportunity.” 🏦

So, in conclusion, the moral of this little financial saga? Michael Saylor is not selling his bitcoin, thank you very much. He’s buying, and he’s in it for the long haul. The rumors? Just noise. And for those wondering if the whole thing might crash and burn: well, let’s just say that if history tells us anything, it’s that Saylor is an excellent collector of fireproof assets. 🔥
