Michael Saylor joked about selling a kidney to keep Bitcoin as prices crash. He’s still pushing BTC, even meeting lawmakers.
Michael Saylor, MicroStrategy’s executive chairman, just dropped another wild Bitcoin take: “Sell a kidney if you must, but keep the Bitcoin.” He was obviously joking, but the timing couldn’t be more dramatic.
Bitcoin has been in freefall, dropping 19% this month, now sitting at $81,883. The entire crypto market is feeling the heat, thanks to low liquidity, shaky global economics, and Trump’s tariff talks. Investors are panicking, but Saylor? He’s doubling down. MicroStrategy holds nearly 500,000 BTC, bought at $66,350 each, despite the company’s $8 billion debt.
Not everyone is vibing with Saylor’s extreme takes. Peter Schiff roasted him, saying, “First, it was maxing out credit cards, now it’s selling organs? Have you no shame?” Some even thought his tweet was from a parody account.
Beyond memes, Saylor is playing the long game. He’s been meeting U.S. lawmakers to push for a Bitcoin reserve, even pitching the idea to Jeff Bezos. For Saylor, Bitcoin isn’t just an asset—it’s a movement.
Will he be right in the end? That’s the billion-dollar question.
