Well I learned a bit about Jack Dorsey last night via interview videos and you should too.
Props, and I am definitely NOT an altruist.
Learned more than enough about Michael Saylor this morning. Don’t get me wrong, Saylor’s been good FOR Bitcoin, but Bitcoin has been better TO him.
Based on what I’ve found, would you even want Saylor to contribute to OpenSats? For one thing:
9. Growing up, Saylor played Dungeons and Dragons, and always insisted on being the Dungeon Master because he "liked to create and control situations."
What Saylor does with $30M:
10. He owns a yacht named USHER — after a computer software, not the singer. (Check out link at end)
More:
12. MicroStrategy is a business intelligence company that uses computer software to collect and sell consumer insight to customers.
13. In many ways, MicroStrategy is the forebearer of targeted ads as we know them today.
16. In 2000, MicroStrategy was accused by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission for fraudulent finance reports. The claims were eventually settled, with Saylor himself paying $8.3 million of his personal money.
17. Following the accusations, MicroStrategy's stock plunged $6 million.
27. In addition to investing MicroStrategy's money into Bitcoin, Saylor himself (as of October,) held close to 18,000 Bitcoin.

IMO, who the fuck is Saylor to question motive?

quoting note1sk7…mnzgI’ll get serious (briefly) so I don’t lose any more followers. 😂 Or irritate Jack, whom I’ve never even SEEN in person, while some here have or even know him.
I believe what Jack did is one of the, or possibly THE most significant act by anyone, to my knowledge in recent Bitcoin history. More significant than Saylor’s massive stockpiling and more important than Blackrock’s entry. What Jack did is MANY things:
-first, it’s a major personal donation,
-it’s major support for those who work or will be working (for your benefit!),
-it’s a significant investment in the future for countless beneficiaries,
-more importantly, it’s a huge vote of confidence, or rather two votes,
-a vote of confidence in the Bitcoin sphere, AND,
-a vote of confidence in OpenSats by a majorly credible person.
Most important, it’s an EXAMPLE we all can/should follow.
You likely at least know OF Jack as do I, but honestly I don’t know enough about him, but soon will.
(Yawn), nice words, we know, good for you, so what?
I’m not done…
…so while I think/write, at least learn about OpenSats and how they work.
