Bio

  • From CoinDesk, which put him in the Most Influention 2020 list (11-12-2020):

"The 55-year-old CEO has steered MicroStrategy through an accounting scandal, a Securities and Exchange Commission investigation, countless executive resignations and an-ever changing Big Data landscape. He watched as MicroStrategy’s competitors were gobbled up or wilted away. Now he’s a chairman with 72% voting power and his boardroom power is unquestioned. His word is MicroStrategy law.

Since August, MicroStrategy’s new strategy has been bitcoin. Saylor began staking his company’s excess cash in BTC after concluding inflation would melt his dollars down. To Saylor, whose fiery rhetoric for technology spans his career, bitcoin is the most rational store-of-value investment, not just for MicroStrategy’s cash but for the entire world. Michael Saylor has no use for altcoins."
