Yes, I “lost” $4 billion on Bitcoin. But here’s the twist — I never sold a single coin.
When Bitcoin crashed in 2022, the headlines went wild:
“Michael Saylor is about to get liquidated!”
Analysts counted my paper losses — over $4 billion — and declared MicroStrategy finished. And yes, the numbers were real. But they missed the point: I wasn’t worried.
Why? Because I prepared for this storm. I knew Bitcoin’s volatility. I knew critics would circle. Conviction without preparation is just gambling — and I don’t gamble.
Here’s the reality: MicroStrategy had a $205 million loan backed by Bitcoin, needing $410 million in collateral. With 115,109 BTC in hand, even if Bitcoin fell to $3,562, we could meet our obligations. We structured our balance sheet for volatility — not panic.
The lesson: losses are temporary. Preparation and strategy turn fear into opportunity.
