Holding forever? That's complete joke. These are people we don't even know, so we can't assume they have clear intentions for Bitcoin. You mentioned some of Microstrategy's investors, and we know what they represent in our community. What makes us think Saylor won't one day sell those Bitcoins? Are they meant to be held forever? We can't trust those who hold a large portion of this coin, so it's best to take precautions and stay as up-to-date as possible.
We've seen how prices drop when there's news. It's often the work of Bitcoin whales. They're always on 24-hour standby to sell at any time, so as not to incur losses.
Answer 1: Not sure if MicroStrategy will be having any sales soon, but we still need to stay at alert because we can't read their minds.
Answer 2: Truth be told, it's going to be very ugly. The reason is that other whales, who hold a significant amount, would not want to incur losses. This could lead to many people selling and later buying at a lower rate.
Answer 3: Of course, since every news from their direction might have positive or negative impact.
It is true that we cannot predict the plans and actions of Saylor and MS, at least we do not believe that they will hold BTC until the end of the world. Anything is possible because if possible everyone wants to maximize profits in this market by buying low and selling high. MS is just a company in the economy, it does not exist just to hold BTC.
The emergence of the BTC Spot ETF does not mean that companies like MicroStrategy will be forced to sell, but that they will lose their status as a bitcoin proxy, as there will be different and cheaper ways to invest in bitcoin.
If we remove Bitcoin, MicroStrategy MSTR is a worthless company or in fact they have no investment other than Bitcoin.
Saylor once explained that investing in MSTR is more efficient than the BTC Spot ETF, and I think this makes sense as MS has a software business and can make a profit and continue to buy BTC. BTC Spot ETF is not a reason for MS to sell BTC.
I want to talk about the cycle itself and the existence of the crypto winter in 2026-2027, every investor has the opportunity sell at the peak to buy back a lot of BTC at a cheaper price. I personally don't think that even knowing about it, MS still wants to hold BTC forever.
It's seems I saw that news just now that , A reporter asks Michael Saylor when he plans to sell Bitcoin.
Michael Saylor: I'll be buying forever.
Although I do not fully believe in the words of these big whales, I do not see anything impossible here because Bitcoin is digital gold, and whoever has more of this digital gold will be stronger. As currently we can see that the more gold the country or the person has, the stronger it is economically. Not only are they economically strong, they are also militarily strong, as currently the top gold reserve holder is the United States of America. So maybe these big whales have not understood the meaning of Bitcoin, so they want to keep Bitcoin in their reserve.
I also hope that Salor and MS will keep their word and not sell any BTC from their reserves during this uptrend. We will soon have the answer in 2026 or 2027. If MS continues to hold BTC, even continuously buy more BTC, Saylor will have high respect from me because his faith in BTC is extremely big.
I believe that missing the opportunity to take profits in 2021, the losses and pressures in 2022 have become valuable lessons for Saylor and MicroStrategy to do better in this cycle: that is, sell at the peak and buy back more BTC at the bottom. Only the right decisions will help the company strengthen investors' confidence, not recklessly collecting and holding as they did.
1. I believe Saylor and MicroStrategy will sell their BTC in 2025.
2. If this happens, we will see a repeat of the cyclicality in the market: meaning nothing too different from the past.
3. It would be better if I could sell before there is an official announcement from MicroStrategy. In the opposite case, I will also sell according to Saylor!
I also believe that after gaining experience from the crypto winter that lasted throughout 2022, Saylor was able to create the most suitable strategy for MS's BTC investment. Currently we are in an uptrend, MS is continuously buying more BTC like whales in the market. Downtrend will be the time for us to test Saylor's diamond hands.
Whether selling or buying BTC, MS is still just a part of the crypto market. If flexible enough, I believe MS will be able to accumulate more BTC next season. If they insist on holding BTC forever, I will wait for the expiration date of that perpetuity.
3. Not at all. Because everyone is mindful of the amount they invest and what they will make in the future. No one is looking at what others have invested already because the crypto market is open to everyone and it is not a competitive market of who invested more than others.
I like your point of view, although the more information we have, the easier it is to judge the state of the market, we still have to master our own investment strategies. MS is also just a famous big whale in the extremely large BTC market!
