March 15th 2021, Cryptoassets Update by Van Tharp.
Let me put this into perspective. In late 2017, I said that cryptoassets were the biggest institution revolution since the Industrial Revolution and that they represented the investment of a lifetime. Institutions were not ready or capable of participating in that revolution so they “pooh-poohed” cryptos. Michael Saylor, the President of MicroStrategy (which owns about $3 billion in BTC) had said in 2013 that BTC’s days were numbered. But now he’s personally one of the top 100 holders of BTC saying on Oct. 28, 2020 that he owned 17,772 BTC purchased at an average price of $9,882. At one point he said that he was purchasing $1,000 worth of BTC every second. His company, knowing about his personal purchases, purchased most of its coins after he’d already acquired a large stake.
