Kevin's Bacon on Nostr: Oh when he said that, he was asserting it, not just asking. He was very taken aback ...
Oh when he said that, he was asserting it, not just asking. He was very taken aback by Saif in that podcast episode, it was on the Bitcoin Standard Podcast I believe.
Bitcoin yield is just him finding funding to purchase more bitcoin per share, primarily by providing financial products in the money markets. It works, until it stops working. At some point it will be so hard to accumulate more money that Strategy will approach an asymptote beyond which others will always have the rest of the bitcoin. That's when the yield stops. It can keep going for a long time until then, and even when it stops, they will probably find ways to provide services to earn their keep, like more financial services, like protection against property damage, like insurance.
