In recent days, a familiar wave of fear has returned to crypto Twitter: “If Bitcoin drops below $76,000, Strategy (formerly MicroStrategy) will be liquidated.” The claim spread quickly and predictably but once again, it fails under even basic scrutiny. What makes this situation particularly interesting is that the liquidation rumor was publicly debunked not by Saylor supporters, but by Anton Golub, one of the most vocal critics of Strategy’s Bitcoin-focused approach. “This Is

For years, Bitcoin’s slow institutional rollout in Europe was misdiagnosed as a lack of interest.
