With every day comes a new pronouncement from Michael Saylor, the charlatan behind the Strategy (US:MSTR) ponzi which indicates that he is going completely mad. The problem is that he has been the biggest cheerleader for crypto and his heavily indebted firm owns 3% of the world’s bitcoin. When it explodes not only will it be a forced sellers but a stack of over-leveraged believers will also enjoy a red pill moment and sell too.

For various reasons I found myself on a video call with Andrew Webley today. We had scheduled a 30 minute chat but we talked for 75 minutes. I am a miserable man with few friends but I admit that I like Webley and would happily go for a non alcoholic drink with him. He has made errors but I can accept that they were not deliberate and he is thus definitively NOT a grifter. So does that make shares in The Smarter Web Company (SWC) a buy? No. And I explain why. But at 44.5p are they super overvalued? They might be if bitcoin crashes or if Strategy (US: MSTR) blows up and I don't think Webley would disagree. But he, like many others reckon neither will happen despite the obvious red flag of the corporate jet Strategy is buying for Michael Saylor as you can see in a regulatory disclosure below. . I discuss all of this and bring you the good news that Webley will join me on stage at Sharestock 2026 on September 5. To get your tickets at 2025 prices you must book before December 31 HERE

I tried to convey the madness and ponzi nature of Strategy (US:MSTR) and how it could collapse the entire bitcoin in treasury bubble yesterday in bearcast. Quite rightly, reader and olive harvester J reckons that Matt Levine explains this insanity fair more clearly

Every bubble has its Messiah. And in the bitcoin in treasury bubble that Messiah is Michael Saylor of Micro Strategy, a man who in 2013 stated that bitcoin is worthless. Now look at the tweets and videos below and I challenge even our own bitcoin guru Jimbo to deny that Saylor is insane.

I start with a possible peace un Ukraine, then Eurasia Mining (EUA), bitcoin prices and what the FCA should force all UK listed bitcoin in treasury companies to do, then the madness of Saylor and also Paul Mathieson at Amazing AI (AAI). I look at Manolete (MANO), Quantum Energy (MAST) and Defence Holdings (ALRT) and warrants in a bear market.

When every bubble bursts someone is painted as the arch villain. Bitcoin, $125,000 just a few weeks ago, is today testing $90,000 and Michael Saylor, the founder of the world’s largest bitcoin in treasury company, MicroStrategy ($MSTR) is ranting that we should all buy bitcoin. Peter Schiff says Strategy is a fraud and will go to $0.

Strategy (MSTR) is the big daddy of bitcoin in treasury companies and its success is seen, by believers, as proof that The Smarter Web Company (SWC) can go only one way. But even Strategy trades at less than 2 times NAV whereas the Smarter Web company, at 217.5p, trades at more than five times fully diluted NAV. So, if one accepts that Strategy is cheap, which I am not sure I do, then that does not make Smarter Web anything but expensive. But what if Strategy shares were to puke? Could that happen?
