Well, one of the biggest investors at Bitcoin is called Michael Sailer.

0:02

We talked to him before.

0:03

He's co-founded and now still runs micro strategy.

0:07

Michael Sailer joins us tonight with an update on how he's feeling about Bitcoin markets.

0:11

Michael, thanks so much for coming on.

0:12

So you're the voice that people who are interested in this topic,

0:15

listen to I think most carefully.

0:17

How are you feeling about Bitcoin?

0:20

Bitcoin is the most certain thing in a very uncertain world.

0:24

You know, and in a market full of chaos and sound and fury,

0:28

people need a safe place to stand apart from the intervention of a government

0:32

and agency or a corporation.

0:34

So Bitcoin represents a fair, open, equitable network with a very simple promise

0:40

to anyone that wants to join, which is what you own as yours

0:43

and no one's going to take it away from you.

0:46

Do you think that one of the ideas by Bitcoin was that it wouldn't be directly correlated

0:50

to the equity market?

0:51

So if the, you know, the S&P dropped Bitcoin wouldn't, are we going to see that?

0:56

Well, you know, in these markets right now, there's no way,

1:01

there's no simple place to hide.

1:03

All the indexes are in bear market territory.

1:06

Bonds don't represent a safe refuse because their currency derivatives.

1:10

Stocks have to grow their cash flows faster than the inflation rate.

1:14

But if you zoom out two years since the beginning of the COVID crisis,

1:19

you notice the US money supplies expanded 36%.

1:23

Gold is up 7%.

1:25

The S&P index is up 29%.

1:28

The NASDAQ's only up 19%.

1:31

Bitcoin's up 229%.

1:33

So if you can stomach the volatility and you take the long view,

1:37

you've got a safe haven there.

1:40

So I mean, I guess the, the simplest measure of how you feel is what you're doing.

1:43

What are you doing with Bitcoin right now?

1:45

Are you buying or selling?

1:48

Whenever I have some spare cash, we buy more Bitcoin.

1:52

Yeah, we're taking a very, very long view toward this.

1:55

The network's only getting better.

1:57

Adoption is improving.

1:59

Very constructive regulation is coming out of DC.

2:02

And the lightning network is moving us closer to Satoshi's promise of

2:06

letting everybody in the world trade with each other at the speed of light

2:10

in a fair and equitable fashion.

2:12

So you're buying?

2:16

Yeah, I'll be buying at the top forever.

2:19

Right, the maximalist, we've Bitcoin's an instrument of economic empowerment.

2:23

I'm not trying to time in the market.

2:25

Right.

2:26

I just want to be honest.

2:27

That tell, I always want to know what people are doing, not what they're saying.

2:29

So that really tells the story.

2:31

Michael Silla, great to see you tonight.

2:32

Thank you very much.

2:35

Yeah, thanks for having me, Tucker.
