Why? First, and I think this is kind of hard for people to understand that I miss your itself is even more volatile than the bitcoin itself.\ufffc<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">What this means is, essentially, I missed your as a company, which has its foundation in bitcoin, which is the most valuable thing on the planet, and human universe, and yet, I think people really really cannot truly understand how big and profound it is.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">First, the big idea is that it is essentially like rocket boosters or Turbo chargers or turbines for bitcoin as jet fuel.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">So imagine, let us say bitcoin is like the jet fuel, and then, MSTR is the rocket ship that takes you to Mars and beyond.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How high do you want to fly?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I\u2019m going to make a pretty bold bet, I think by the end of December, I know this sounds a little bit funny, but I think we might be able to see bitcoin hit $200,000 a bitcoin, and probably break it, and then maybe by the New Year\u2019s, settle down in like the 175,000 to $185,000 range? \ufffc<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">My reasoning is simple, the way up and the way down, and vice versa are both the same. Heraclitus.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Zoom out. Everyone wants bitcoin to hit $21 million a bitcoin. Do you think we get there by it just literally going up, or do you imagine it like the Gotham city heartbeat, or like high voltage electricity wires in which it\u2019s zigzags up and down with high interval energy, until it breaks new highs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">bitcoin is truth<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">So this is also my theory, everyone is asking why bitcoin is going down so low. Well the truth is if you think about the whole global macro economic reality, the world is currently crumbling. Inflation is ridiculous, things at Costco now like 4 to 5 times more expensive than I could recall; the biggest indicator for me is when I could get beef back ribs at Costco business center for only 199 a pound, $1.99 a pound\u2026 And now, it has almost like 4X, to around like 799 a pound.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">And so my honest interesting thought is bitcoin is truth because it actually does truly mark the true reality of the global macro economic stage which is actually pretty terrible. And the reality is think God we\u2019re still alive, you should be grateful\u2026 I think we\u2019re going through a world war three economic war right now.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">So for example, the economic war between America and China\u2026 is pretty real. \ufffc\ufffc\ufffc\ufffc and also all the big tech companies are in big trouble because everyone is kind of struggling to catch and hold on.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Nobody wants Tesla\u2019s anymore, nobody is really that interested in the new iPhone 35 Pro Max, people prefer ChatGPT over Google, people prefer TikTok over Instagram and Facebook, nobody really cares for virtual reality Meta or Apple Vision Pro., and even kind of more pivotal\u2026 I think people are starting to critically understand and try to think about what is the purpose of higher education?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">It\u2019s kind of like a stick and carrot and a double edge sword, now that we have ChatGPT and ChatGPT pro\u2026 Which could write an essay and research article better than your tenured Harvard professor, \ufffc with zero stress, zero procrastination, and zero existential angst, \ufffc that does not get distracted by obsessively checking his or her Gmail every five seconds,\u2026 Why are we still trying to teach kids to write these research essays, yet kind of trying to forbid them from using ChatGPT in the first place?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I dream in MSTR OK honestly the truth is, I must hear by far might be the most important company on the planet.
