I've never done 'ludes (TMK) but I laughed so hard during the 'lude scenes that I almost passed out. The rest of the movie served as a vehicle for those scenes and they know it.
The point is that these people don't care what Bitcoin will do. It's irrelevant. They are just trying to get as much attention as possible which will reflect in most revenue. They will make money if it goes sky high or if it burns to the ground. Saylor by dumping his MSTR shares and Blackrock with the fees on their ETFs.
I get it. We're all adults. Getting f*cked when the music stops won't result in a windfall for Saylor. He will get hurt more than anyone (notionally).
Let's see the voting. Last one didn't go his way. Increasing the number of shares traded dilutes the value of current shares. Or at least that is the theory. I am not sure if current investors are that happy with the news.
Actually first they won. They only lost eventually when the government stepped in and changed the rules. And Soros is not involved with crypto. History recap. After silver went up 700% because the 3 Hunt bros held 1/3rd of non-government silver: "On January 7, 1980, in response to the Hunts' accumulation, the exchange rules regarding leverage were changed; COMEX adopted "Silver Rule 7", which placed heavy restrictions on the purchase of commodities on margin. The Hunt brothers had borrowed heavily to finance their purchases, and, as the price began to fall again, dropping over 50% in just four days, they were unable to meet their obligations, causing panic in the markets."
??? When I started trading Marathon, I was already annoyed that Soros had already become a major stakeholder in the miner which bloated the price ahead of me. He owns still about 9 million in convertible notes in just that single miner alone. Also, Dawn Fitzpatrick confirmed that the Soros Fund owns Bitcoin too, but refuses to disclose their positions.
