"I think @udiWertheimer was right and the dip was in no small part caused by the drop out of saylors bid last week going into earnings. Since this was known in advance a hedge fund may have taken advantage of this with a leveraged short position and targeted high volume selling into an illiquid market to trigger a liquidation cascade. Now it seems Saylor is back on the bid scooping up cheap sats. $MSTR mNAV is now 1.14x the highest level since early December last year. A higher mNAV allows Strategy use the common ATM to buy BTC in a way that is accretive to BTC per share. Fundamentals are"

"From the comments: "Bitcoin is often harshly judged. The notion that an asset must have a "fundamental value" is outdated. Economists need to review how they view assets." How cute How dangerous On bitcoin being a hedge. I was making the theoretical point that a bubble can be a hedge. But some of the comments are right. It has been a poor hedge so far (not that gold is a perfect hedge either but it does better at it) Always fun to engage with the Bitcoin crowd getting insights about human nature credulity motivated beliefs and the thinking of Bitcoin investors.
