Michael Saylor didn’t learn his lesson from the dot-com crash.
Now he’s betting the farm on Bitcoin. History doesn’t repeat, but it rhymes.

1999-2000:
MicroStrategy’s a rising star in data analytics. Stock goes parabolic.
CEO Michael Saylor becomes a billionaire overnight.
Then... reality check.
They announce revenue restatements.
Investors see the scam, stock crashes over 99%.
One of the biggest busts of the dot-com era.

Fast forward 20 years.
MicroStrategy's still around, low-key, doing okay.
But Saylor's got a new obsession: Bitcoin.
Starts stacking BTC like his life depends on it.
Corporate treasury? Converts it to Bitcoin.
Takes out loans? Buys Bitcoin.
Sells more stock? You guessed it: Bitcoin.

Calls it "digital gold."
Talks like he’s figured out the cheat code for infinite wealth.
BTC hits $69K, and he’s hailed as a genius.
But wait... look at the numbers.

MicroStrategy’s balance sheet?
It’s basically a leveraged BTC ETF now.
Stock price? Tracks Bitcoin, not the business.
If BTC drops below their average buy price, margin calls start knocking.
Debt payments looming.
This isn’t diversification, it’s degeneracy.

Remember 2000:
Dot-com bubble bursts. Everyone thought they’d be rich forever.
Saylor lost billions, MicroStrategy almost went under.
Now he’s doing the same thing—different asset.

What happens when the next bear market hits?
BTC goes $20K, $15K… Saylor forced to sell at a loss.
Stock collapses. Investors left holding the bag.
MicroStrategy becomes a cautionary tale twice.

TL;DR:
Michael Saylor didn’t learn his lesson from the dot-com crash.
Now he’s betting the farm on Bitcoin. History doesn’t repeat, but it rhymes.

This
Wtf does he care?
I doubt his stockholders even care that much
Microstrategy was a literal who no name company for 20 years until he started stacking sats, now anyone who was not on board with this new plan has had plenty of time to sell at wildly increased prices, maybe the even break even from the year 2000 if they bought the top, kek

If he fails he'll probably get a golden parachute and people will call him an idiot in the crypto tabloids, big deal

54 shares. I was a pussy and sold here and there but I got most of my initial investment back so I could tolerate a total loss from now on. I am curious now. Want to see how far this shit goes, its a once in a life time opportunity.

If you bought MSTR merely 2 months ago you'd be up nearly 5x now, I literally have no clue what your fucking whining is about. You can literally swing trade MSTR for 20-50% each time if you're scared.
>BUT IT'LL POP
I don't understand what the fuck you even mean here, do you mean people should never buy BTC because it might pop? Wiggity swiggity swooce.

In latest interview he is 52% shareholder of mstr and among many personal holdings he gas 17k btc of his very own.

If mstr fails totally he is still a billionaire.
