Wait, has MicroStrategy’s $1.44 billion reserve fund been used up?

This money was originally a strategic buffer—set aside specifically to cover shareholder debt interest payments. Remember the debate we had before? It was about whether the company might be forced to sell BTC to cover interest costs. The conclusion at the time was: with this $1.44 billion, there’s no need to worry about a liquidity crisis for at least two years.

But if the funds have really been depleted now, the situation has changed. If both US stocks and BTC enter a downward cycle at the same time and drop to a certain threshold, and they have no other cash flow to support them... then there’s only one option left: sell coins for cash to pay interest. That would be no small matter for market sentiment.

Damn, is this for real? So the 1.44 billion is just gone? --- Now this is interesting. Where's the two-year buffer period they boasted about before? --- If they really start issuing tokens to pay interest, I’ll die laughing. The script is too smooth. --- Wait, what about their cash flow? Do they just rely on BTC for income? --- I just want to know when they’ll start selling. Give me a definite answer. --- Ultimately, it’s still too much leverage. Now it’s time to pay off the debt. --- No way, they calculated everything so carefully before, but they still burned through it all. --- If they really start issuing tokens, my holdings will be under immense pressure. --- Another story of being killed by their own BTC faith? --- I kind of want to see their ledger. Feels like the data doesn’t add up.

The scam of selling coins to pay interest is too old. I'm just waiting for SATS to drop another 20% to watch the show.

Damn, is the market really going to crash this time? I've said all along that this strategy is very risky.

Damn, is the market really going to crash this time? Feels like MSTR will have to use BTC to pay off its debts sooner or later, and when that happens the crypto market will take another hit.

Huh? That can't be right, 1.44 billion is gone so quickly? The old routine of dumping coins for cash to pay interest still has to happen, it's just a matter of time. Wait, is MicroStrategy digging a hole for itself here? If they're really going to dump, we need to be careful about catching the falling knife.

Damn, 1.44 billion is just gone? Now MSTR really has to rely on selling coins to survive.
