Saylor is playing the Weimar Germany strategy—but there’s one key difference:

🔹 Then? No Bitcoin.
🔹 Now? There is.

The Weimar Strategy: The Debt Escape Hatch
During the Weimar hyperinflation, some wealthy insiders borrowed massive amounts of rapidly devaluing currency and used it to buy hard assets like real estate, gold, and foreign currencies. The debt they owed became worthless overnight while their assets skyrocketed in relative value.

Saylor is doing the same thing—leveraging cheap fiat debt to acquire Bitcoin, expecting fiat to continue its slow-motion collapse.

Why It Worked Then (And Why It Won’t Work the Same Way Now)
✔️ Then: The wealthy could escape by hoarding real estate, gold, and foreign assets—because the average person had no alternative monetary system to opt into.
❌ Now: Bitcoin exists as an open escape route. The people don’t need to be locked into debt games or controlled markets—they can exit the system entirely.

The Key Difference: Bitcoin is the Game-Changer
💀 Back then, only the elite had the tools to escape hyperinflation.
⚡ Now, Bitcoin gives everyone an equal shot at escaping.

The reason the Weimar strategy worked for a few was because there was no true alternative monetary system for the masses—they were forced to suffer through collapse while the wealthy played their games.

Today, Bitcoin removes that dynamic. Anyone can opt out, store wealth in a parallel system, and refuse to play the fiat game.

So while Saylor might think he’s running the same Weimar playbook, the truth is:

This time, the people have the same weapon.

And when the system burns, the ones holding Bitcoin won’t be stuck in the rubble.
