A couple of months ago Anthony Pompliano did an amazing interview with Michael Saylor, CEO of MicroStrategy. Around that time news broke that MicroStrategy was going all in Bitcoin with their unused liquid funds of about $500 million. In this interview Michael Saylor explains his thought process and events that lead him make this decision for his company. Back then, one could think it is too risky and reckless to risk most of company funds by investing in Bitcoin. Today, it is clear that it was a brilliant business decision. Here is the full video. I highly recommend watching for those who are interested in seeing a perspective of investing in Bitcoin from a business point of view. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WrR95PFYDFQ Initially, I started watching the video when it was released because I was interested in the story how Voice.com ended up being sold for $30 million to Dan Larimer and block.one. That is an interesting story. If you haven't heard yet, Michale Saylor explains what happened with that sale in details. Still, the most fascinating part of the interview is a decision making process of a CEO to go all in investing in Bitcoin. Today, their investment looks great and probably other CEOs would be envious of such business move. Now imagine what can happen, once more and more businesses realize that Bitcoin can be a great investment or hedge for any company, small or big.

I think some business people are coming to know about these really brilliant move made by some businessmen back in the days to go all in with BTC. I love Anthony Pompliano he's a really Crypto enthusiast and in the video I can see a lot of different perspective of well equating money and how to give it an even better meaning rather than just holding it. They spoke about a lot of risk too and how a lot of risk can brilliantly pay off for someone who's can do their research. Beautiful video, I'm still watching by the way Posted Using [LeoFinance <sup>Beta</sup>](https://leofinance.io/hive-167922/@josediccus/re-geekgirl-kabwn)

I hadn't seen the interview before so this is a great watch to see what the thought process was going on in his head. Thanks for sharing - his background is really interesting! Wow! Posted Using [LeoFinance <sup>Beta</sup>](https://leofinance.io/hive-167922/@nickyhavey/re-geekgirl-6brrqs)
