Strategy is attracting some of the world's largest fund managers because they want Bitcoin exposure. Their buying supports the bullish case for MSTR as a listed vehicle for institutional Bitcoin demand. x.com 

Strategy might be undervalued because it holds far more Bitcoin than the first time its stock traded at the same price. At $140.51 today, it holds 848,517 BTC, versus 193,000 BTC the first time shares reached $140.51. x.com  x.com 

Strategy is a debt trap disguised as genius: it keeps buying bitcoin with debt and preferred stock, yet bitcoin generates no income to service those obligations. Like a man buying rent-free houses on credit cards, it looks brilliant while prices rise and lenders keep saying yes, with the MSTR premium acting as that willing lender. If bitcoin falls and funding dries up, it is left to sell into a falling market, borrow at worse rates or dilute shareholders on ugly terms. x.com 

Strategy's accretive Bitcoin accumulation has raised net backing per share, lowering the premium needed to revisit its $543 intraday high. At $98,000 Bitcoin, backing rose from $127 to $160 since November 2024, cutting the required net mNAV from 4.3x to 3.4x. A 2.5x premium at $200,000-$250,000 Bitcoin would imply roughly $896-$1,131; 2.5x is plausible at peak euphoria, not expected at $126,000. Premiums depend on Bitcoin momentum and sentiment, which Strategy cannot control. x.com  x.com 

Strategy is undervalued because Bitcoin is here to stay regardless of price swings, and the stock resembles closed-end funds that fell 90% in the 1929 crash yet made patient buyers' families rich. Peter Schiff notes its $29.54B market cap sits below its roughly $50B of Bitcoin holdings. x.com 

Strategy is a scam, though a brilliantly executed one, built on bitcoin, which is itself a liquidity decoy. Michael Saylor sold about $496M of MSTR under an equity compensation plan ending in April 2024, around the SEC's Grayscale approval, effectively dumping bitcoin on the masses near $60K. He does not care about "never sell"; he ran a pump and dump in the 1998-2000 bubble and was fined for accounting fraud, but this time is fully legally covered. x.com  x.com  x.com  x.com  x.com  x.com 

Strive's common ATM can lift long-run returns by funding bitcoin purchases at a share premium. Bitcoin is historically cheap; stacking in a bear market or before the bull market begins drives the biggest gains later. But too much weekly issuance can blunt upside, exhaust investors and cap mNAV expansion; share scarcity matters. The ATM is crucial, but caution is preferable. Cole Macro said preferreds should help keep dilution below Strategy's levels on the way up. x.com  x.com  x.com 

Bitcoin's utility creates demand and convexity, while its scarce supply protects that upside because supply cannot respond to price. Most scarce things fail the utility test; bitcoin passes both. Adoption is unfolding one balance sheet at a time: Strategy holds 848,517 BTC, more than the next 200 public companies combined; Strive is #4 and climbing at 36,818, and SpaceX is #7 at 18,712. x.com  x.com 

Strategy's latest share sale sets up another bitcoin bid but keeps diluting MSTR holders until buying restarts. It sold 18.26M MSTR shares for about $2B: $136M to buy back STRC, $300M to the dividend reserve and $1.59B to a flexible cash pool that can buy bitcoin. Its BTC sale near $64K repaired the financing machine after STRC fell below $100; it was not a bearish call. Meanwhile more shares chase the same 840,447 BTC. Watch STRC reclaiming $100 (now $97) and where the $1.59B goes. x.com 

Bitcoin benefits as the risk of creating gold through alchemy has entered public consciousness. That perceived threat to gold's scarcity supports a long Bitcoin position as a persistent theme. x.com
