Michael Saylor has more courage than anyone I’ve ever seen in public markets.
2022 taught him a lesson he will never forget, and the @Strategy balance sheet that sits today is its reflection.
It’s built to withstand pretty much anything the market throws at it.
When you spend thousands of hours understanding a company, understanding Bitcoin, watching nearly every interview Saylor has ever given, you develop a level of conviction that is genuinely difficult to explain to someone on the outside.
The few bulls standing firm on days like today know exactly what I mean.
I have given a significant portion of the past few years to deeply understanding what this company is trying to build.
And if what I have done feels substantial, keep in mind that @saylor has given the past six years of his life to this mission.
He has outworked probably anyone in this space, obsessed over this day and night, and traveled the world advocating for it.
He could be sitting on his yacht in Cannes.
Instead, he keeps showing up.
I find it almost amusing that anyone genuinely believes Saylor is here to rob people.
A billionaire heading toward the final chapter of his career has the least incentive imaginable to scheme against retail investors.
He already has everything he needs materially.
What he does not have, and what has driven him for the past five years, is the mark he wants to leave.
His mother believed he could change the world.
He has made it his life’s mission to prove her right by fixing a part of the system that robs ordinary people of the opportunity to pursue the life they want.
@saylor genuinely believes money is the highest form of energy human beings can channel.
And he has committed everything to trying to change how that energy flows.
People underestimate how hard that is.
He has built an entirely new category.
He has trailblazed the path for corporations to hold Bitcoin.
He has built structures that support the very network he believes can change the world.
And with an approach this disruptive, it was always going to rub people the wrong way.
Traditional markets were always going to push back against anyone trying to restructure the way credit works.
Skeptics in the Bitcoin community were always going to resist his capitalist view.
And people within the crypto space were always going to find a target for their lost cause.
Yes….It is deeply disappointing to see $STRC behave in the opposite way the instrument was designed to behave.
Anyone sitting on losses has my genuine sympathy.
But I truly believe this management team is capable of working through this.
For those with a little more patience, a little more of the same belief that brought them to this instrument in the first place, I believe this team will find a way.
I have never had a stronger conviction in what is being built here.
I am willing to go down with it if it comes to that.
I know Saylor is.
I know Phong is.
The mission will continue.
Mission Strategy.

Tesla Cybercab production is set to begin next month in April. And once millions of these are in the streets, it’s going to feel like we suddenly jumped straight into the future. It’s honestly one of the most beautifully designed cars Tesla has ever made.
BREAKING 🚨 Elon Musk just reposted a video of Katie Miller surprising Laura Ingraham by saying:
"I just want to point out that what we've spent on the war so far is less than what Tim Walz has lost from Somali fraud in Minnesota”
IMAGINE THAT
America has over half a million cattle ranches — but just four companies control about 85% of U.S. beef processing, and two major players are effectively controlled from Brazil.
That bottleneck squeezes ranchers, jacks up prices, and sends profits offshore.
President Trump ordered DOJ to act.
