Michael Saylor Drops Bitcoin Bombshell: No Tariffs, Just Chaos! 🚀

by

Michael Saylor, the man who probably dreams in blockchain and wakes up to the sound of digital coins clinking, has once again graced the internet with his wisdom. The founder and executive chairman of Strategy (formerly known as MicroStrategy, because rebranding is the new black) has chimed in on the latest political drama courtesy of former US President Donald Trump.

In a move that surprised absolutely no one, Trump decided to slap a 10% tariff on imports from Canada, China, and the European Union. Because nothing says “Make America Great Again” like making everything more expensive. These tariffs are set to kick in on April 5, because why not add a little chaos to the spring season?

Bitcoin, ever the drama queen, reacted to the news by taking a nosedive of roughly 5.72% in the past 24 hours. It started at $86,930 on Wednesday, plummeted to $82,488, briefly flirted with $83,700, and then decided to lose another 2%, landing at $81,900. As of this writing, the world’s favorite digital rollercoaster is trading at $81,995 per coin. 🎢

Not one to miss a beat, Saylor took to Twitter to remind everyone that Bitcoin is the ultimate tariff-free zone. “There are no tariffs on Bitcoin,” he declared, probably while sipping a cup of coffee made from ground-up Satoshis.

On Wednesday, Saylor also hinted that his company, Strategy, is still on its mission to hoard Bitcoin like a dragon with a penchant for digital gold. After recently purchasing 22,048 BTC, Strategy now boasts a treasure trove of 528,185 Bitcoins, worth a cool $43,376,464,229. Because when you’re playing the long game, why not go all in? 🐉💰
