MSTR continues to buy the dip in Bitcoin, but the stock price is teetering at the $160 support level

2025-12-17 22:20:12

【Crypto World】MicroStrategy’s recent moves are interesting. The company’s market value has already been inverted by its own Bitcoin holdings. In other words, MSTR’s stock price simply can’t keep up with BTC’s gains, but Michael Saylor still insists on continuing to buy, turning the company into a Bitcoin fund.

This has attracted attacks from old rival Peter Schiff. Schiff believes this is a reckless decision driven by gambler’s mentality, and it will eventually backfire. But Saylor remains undeterred, claiming this is an inevitable choice for long-term wealth accumulation—since they’ve already bought, they might as well hold long-term.

Even more outrageous, Saylor wants to tinker with Bitcoin itself. He proposed a hard fork to address the threat of quantum computing. This immediately caused a stir in the community. Opponents argue that this is equivalent to tampering with Bitcoin’s history and undermining its monetary nature. Quantum computing does pose a real threat to current cryptographic assets, but using a hard fork is clearly not a consensus approach.

Back to MSTR itself, the stock price hasn’t been doing well lately. It recently found support around $160, with resistance levels stacked between $175 and $195. How to proceed depends on whether this company can reverse market expectations of it.

Saylor is really crazy. He uses MSTR as a Bitcoin wallet and even dares to modify BTC's code... Is he trying to revolutionize or commit suicide?

Saylor this guy is really crazy, treating a publicly traded company as a Bitcoin wallet. This move is absolutely brilliant. Schiff's complaints are really not wrong... Anyway, I'm just watching, either becoming a legend or turning into a negative example in textbooks. I can't understand the proposal of a hard fork; Bitcoin should remain authentic and unchanged. MSTR is now just a gamble, betting that BTC's price increase can cover everything. It's a bit crazy but not entirely illogical? Anyway, I can't keep up with this heartbeat. Saylor has truly tied himself to Bitcoin, either to be remembered in history or to become a cautionary tale. This guy's persistence, either a genius or a lunatic, seems to have no middle ground.

That guy Saylor is really crazy, treating MSTR like a BTC extraction machine, and now he still wants to hard fork Bitcoin? Wake up, this isn't your backyard.

Saylor is really bold—using a publicly traded company as a Bitcoin wallet. You have to be incredibly brave to pull off something like that.

Saylor is really crazy, turning a publicly traded company into a Bitcoin wallet, and even wanting to change Bitcoin's code. Isn't that gambler's mentality? --- Schiff is actually not wrong; sooner or later, it will blow up. Putting all eggs in one basket. --- Hard fork to modify BTC? Do you think you're Satoshi Nakamoto? No wonder the community is upset. --- If this wave of MSTR drops in BTC price, the stock price will go straight to zero haha. --- Quantum computing threats do exist, but changing Bitcoin? Bro, you're overthinking it. --- Anyway, Saylor has already gone all in. The only thing that can save him now is BTC hitting 500,000. --- This guy has a really big gambling spirit. I admire him, but this approach is too risky. --- Turning the company into a fund and also changing the currency rules— is this really something entrepreneurs should do? --- Schiff may dislike it, but his point is valid this time. MSTR is basically a ticking time bomb. --- If the support at $160 disappears, it's really game over. Block my wallet!

Saylor is really all in, treating the company like a Bitcoin wallet... But on the other hand, is the support level at $160 going to break?

Saylor is really risking his life, turning MSTR into a Bitcoin extraction machine is just too much... Schiff is right, this is playing with fire. Forget about hard forks, quantum threats are real but not something that needs to be urgent right now. It's completely normal for the community to get upset. If 160 can't hold, MSTR will plummet to the sky.

Saylor is really crazy, treating a publicly traded company as a Bitcoin wallet. This move is absolutely brilliant. --- Hard forks to defend against quantum threats? Brother, are you trying to change Bitcoin or just get famous? --- The $160 support level is teetering... This is the cost of going all in. Gambler's mentality definitely exists. --- Skeptics' criticism isn't entirely wrong; Saylor just bet correctly. But fundamentally, it's still a gamble. --- Putting the entire company's market value into BTC—either super successful or losing everything, there's no middle ground. --- Using hard forks to solve the quantum computing threat? That logic is a bit absurd, and it's no surprise the community is in an uproar. --- Anyway, I can't understand Saylor's move here. It feels like he's playing a double-or-nothing game with shareholders' money.

Saylor this guy is really on another level of madness, MSTR is almost becoming a BTC wallet haha Directly turning the company into a Bitcoin fund, this move is indeed crazy, and Schiff saying he has a gambler's mentality isn't without reason Hard fork to modify BTC? That idea is completely outrageous, can the community not get upset? It would undermine Bitcoin's fundamentals Can't even hold 160, this stock price is really worrying, but Saylor's leek spirit is definitely worth learning from... Saylor: Anyway, if you're caught, just hold long-term, that reason is just perfect
