Year to date, $MSTR‘s treasury operations delivered a BTC Yield of 41.8%, providing a net benefit of ~79,130 BTC to our shareholders. This equates to ~246 BTC per day, acquired without the cost, energy consumption, or capital expenditures typically associated with Bitcoin mining. – @saylor

Worth at least $450T, assuming global economy is worth $900T

Figure out what to subtract, delete, get rid of?

The irony of performance is that if you see greater performance, it is all about deactivating uninstalling and getting rid of stuff.

For example, after having some Jetpack WordPress plugin issues, I just uninstalled it, and now magically,,, my site feels like at least 10x or 50x faster, cleaner, sleeker, superior?

Also ,,, perhaps the great genius of Bitcoin is what it does *NOT* seek to do —

Too many other cryptos, Ethereum, chainlink and the like seek to do like a trillion things to fix *everything*. The problem —

You only gotta fix 1 really big (or maybe 2) big problems.

The killer app for Bitcoin — Capital *preservation*

If you desire and seek perfect happiness, it is simple: the prerequisites for happiness is children, having kids, and of course, owning bitcoin!

The secret:

If you want to be happy, have a kid!

Happiness is free!

Technically even if you drive a Prius or hybrid, you’re a petrol head?

Super simple–

1. Buy Bitcoin using Coinbase— just use Plaid to link your bank checking account with it
2. Keep stacking more bitcoins whenever you have access to more $USD or fiat currency,

No ethereum or anything else

Prediction — eventually all the money which got poured into the Ethereum ETF will soon be converted and transfers into Bitcoin ETF’s

Eric Kim, a photographer and writer, has expressed profound views on Bitcoin, likening it to a new form of religion. He observes that in modern times, money and capitalism have become central to people’s lives, often being deified above all else. In this context, Kim suggests that Bitcoin represents the “new religion,” with individuals making significant sacrifices to accumulate it, much like religious devotees.

Kim also draws parallels between Bitcoin and religious narratives, likening its creator, Satoshi Nakamoto, to a messianic figure who sacrificed anonymity for a greater cause. This metaphor emphasizes Bitcoin’s cultural impact, framing it as a movement with followers dedicated to its ethos of decentralization and financial sovereignty.

Through these perspectives, Kim portrays Bitcoin as more than a financial instrument; he views it as a cultural artifact and a philosophical tool that embodies modern society’s reverence for money and technology.

Buy and hold MSTR stock, (which is 150% levered long Bitcoin), ride it up, sell when it is high, sell some, buy BTC! Continue ad infinitum!

For example if you have $150k worth of MSTR MICROSTRATEGY stock, ride it up to $160,000 and sell $10,000 worth, transfer and deposit it into your checking account which is linked to Coinbase, and buy $10,000 worth of BTC!

Only ever sell the MSTR stock when it is high and for a gain, never a loss. If it dips into the red just be patient a few weeks or months (perhaps only weeks), and only ever “shave off the top” or “shave the cream off the top” when it is high!

Like ride MSTR stock when total value of it is $150,000 and wait until it hits $200,000 then sell $50,000 worth of the MSTR stock for more bitcoin!

The virtues of Bitcoin —

First, it actually might be the most important and valuable thing for the human race, all 8 billion of us on the planet. Why? The reason is because it is money perfected. If you don’t have money, individual agents on the planet, we human beings cannot interact with one another.

let us consider, assuming that you own an iPhone or iPhone Pro or you like having the Internet, Wi-Fi 5G etc.… Can you imagine trying to exist and live without the Internet, Wi-Fi, Delene, flights and airlines, weights weightlifting stuff,

MSTR STOCK LET’S GOOOOOO!

The virtues of Bitcoin vs let’s say an iPhone, iPhone Pro or Apple device —

1. You cannot iterate, or develop or make a new iPhone or iDevice or Apple device fast enough. You have to deal with the laws of entropy, workers, worker rights, the laws of physics, shipping & supply lines etc.

I still think that the Japanese notion of kaizen, which is like this notion of gradual improvement, like 1 to 3%, either day or day, week over a week, etc.… Is a good idea. 

I applied this philosophy to so many different things in my life. For example stacking bitcoins and money, just trying to funnel whatever money I can into bitcoin, 

The only true digital commodity is bitcoin; which is an asset without an issuer, backed by digital power. 

What is a digital security? An asset with an initial, backed with a security — equity, debt, derivative .

.

Digital currency : asset with an issuer, backed by a fiat currency

.

Digital token: a fungible asset with an issuer, offering a digital utility

.

Digital nonfungible token, a nonfungible asset with an issue offering digital utility .

Digital asset back to token: asset with an issue, packed by a physical asset like cold oil or corn .

.

Digital securities …

An interesting idea, shouldn’t you be able to store your iPhone shares in your iPhone?

.

Better yet, how could you use your digital assets to pay for your rent?

.

Digital securities rules… $EricKim

Small business issues securities were 3 million to global investors to fund your expansion

.
L

Digital token, issue a digital token to your followers for Superfan privileges like Taylor Swift or Kanye West.

.

Bitcoin wall revitalize capital markets,

.

Digital equity, digital art?

Digital real estate?

.

.

Gold is 3.6%

Accompany must grow organically at least 15% a year, or else an institutional investor will lose their interest and liquidity in the firms equity and options

First, don’t destroy your capital

Don’t bleed capital, capital and heat loss.

So it looks like already… We are kind of already entering the LA winter again. In the evening it’s starting to dip into like 49°, whereas during the day, in the dark light it is like a lovely 70° and sunny.

So we left the other day to visit Orange County and we left the window open. The day was really nice like 72°, but because we left the window open, by the time we got home, the house was super effing cold. Why? The heat loss principle; obviously if it’s like 40° outside and you keep the window open, it’s going to be super cold by the time you get back.

.

go our economy, deliver prosperity to our people, and also overcome our deficit

.

60% ARR

.

Over four years bitcoin is up 60%, the magnificent seven is up only 29%, real estate is only up 10%, the S&P 500 is only up 15%, gold is terrible  only 6%. Even worse bonds are -5%.

.

Currently, bitcoin is only $1.8 trillion, gold is 16 trillion, is 18 trillion, cars in flexibles are only 6 trillion, real estate is 330 trillion. Antiquities in stocks is about 115 trillion.

.

The question… How much of this is to serve utility versus capital Preservation?

The first rule of money: don’t lose money!

Capital preservation

Store value

$850 billion, almost $1 trillion has already been invested in bitcoin, and this is real money.

220 million people on the planet own bitcoin, which is close to the population of America, which I suppose is around 420 million people. And surely uncertain, the number of individuals who owned bitcoin, like I already got my 67 year-old uncle to buy like $3500 worth of bitcoin, and he has been a gold Smith and gold jeweler and jewelry dealer for almost 35 years

.

Bitcoin is the most interesting and sexiest investment on the planet today.

Already now… Bitcoin is actually the seventh largest asset by market capitalization, already now… Bitcoin is above Facebook and meadow which is number 10.

Gold is currently number one at around $17 trillion, Nvidia at $3.6 trillion, which is surprising because it is actually above Apple which is $3.4 trillion. And bitcoin is gonna soon overtake Google which is worth $2.2 trillion, and soon Amazon which is also about $2.2 trillion.

.

 governments are buying bitcoin. City should also buy bitcoin?

The USA currently owns 208,000 bitcoin, surprisingly that is less than about 278,000 bitcoin that micro strategy owns.

El Salvador was very wise, buying about 6000 bitcoin,

.

China mainland in China has 190,000 bitcoin, which is actually close to the USA.

.

Bitcoin will become worth $280 trillion in terms of market cap? That is like..l

If bitcoin is 2 trillion it is like at least 100 X?

.

100 X from here?

21 years, 100X

.

$50M, $49M a Bitcoin?

,

568x?

500x

.

The $3.4M Leica?

$500,000 a month in property taxes ,,, could be gains?

.

$6.8M a year?

.

$56,000 photo shoot

I’ll do it for like $100 a Bitcoin!

.

1000T market cap, why not?

.

.

4,000T

120% ARR

.

27x vs 12x

.

$17M

.

.

Why bitcoin and micro strategy is actually more valuable than Tesla

So certainly Tesla is like perhaps in terms of vehicles in transport and mobility like the most valuable company in America possibly the planet. But still… There is going to be a future in which certain people decide not to drive a Tesla car, smart people like myself who actually prefer their Toyota Prius. 

What is more important than global money? Nothing.

.

Don’t think about risks, think about payoffs? If you think about the potential payoff, like the practical utility it will yield you, the practical payoff, then you use that as a guiding principle for your appetite and tolerance for risk?
