Saylor’s $2B Bitcoin Stash: A Genius Move or a Fool’s Gamble?

In the shadow of geopolitical storms, where alliances crumble like brittle parchment, the titan of industry found time to etch another chapter into the annals of financial absurdity.

One wonders: is this a stroke of genius, or merely the delirium of a man who mistook a spreadsheet for a prophecy?
