Michael Saylor, a vocal Bitcoin advocate and the executive chairman of Bitcoin treasury company Strategy, has published a tweet about Bitcoin, featuring an old-school fighting computer game.
The screenshot he shared shows a made-up game similar to The Mortal Kombat or Sango Fighter, but the players are called Strategy and Metaplanet, represented by these companies’ chiefs — Michael Saylor versus Simon Gerovich. Strategy’s HP metric totals 597,325, and Metaplanet’s is 13,350, respectively — the amounts of Bitcoin held by these BTC treasury companies.
Saylor tweeted: “If you’re going to fight, fight for Bitcoin.” Earlier, this image was published by Metaplanet’s Gerovich, which is posted as a response to Saylor’s comment.
On that day, Saylor tweeted that Metaplanet should get to the second spot among Bitcoin treasury companies by the size of BTC holdings, “and then we fight,” Saylor jestingly stated. Gerovich published this image to illustrate a hypothetical event where Bitcoin bags will be used for fighting, not fists or other weapons.
Both Strategy and Metaplanet announced new Bitcoin purchases on Monday. Strategy bought 4,980 BTC worth more than half a billion dollars, while Metaplanet announced the accumulation of 1,005 BTC bought for roughly $108.1 million.
Over the past 24 hours, the bellwether cryptocurrency, Bitcoin, went down by less than 1%, falling from $108,925 to the $108,100 zone. On Thursday, BTC lost the $110,000 price level.
