The Treasury of Michael Saylor: How Bitcoin Powers Cultures, Corporations, and Countries in the 21st Century

by Anil Patel

MICHAEL SAYLOR is sitting on $500 million in cash and watching it melt away with each passing second. From pondering a comfortable retirement by his Miami Beach pool to having his core beliefs about money and wealth permanently shattered, this is the story of a billionaire CEO who lit the fuse of a revolution in corporate finance, putting trillions of dollars of capital on notice.

Curated from Michael Saylor’s most impactful speeches, interviews, and tweets, this book is the collected wisdom of one of the great thinkers of the 21st century. It lays out the principles, concepts, and lessons for building—and keeping—wealth in the rapidly evolving Digital Age.

Moving this book up to my top three for the year. If you want to understand how the preservation of wealth and energy works in today's [FIAT] monetary system, this is a must read!

We all buy Bitcoin at the price we deserve.

The book is interesting for Bitcoin newcomers while being addressed to well-educated people in the investment world. The issue there is that this book clearly shows a confirmation bias and is all about how Bitcoin is great and perfect, which might not help convincing the doubtfuls of the greatness of the technology. Do not mistake me, I'm pro-Bitcoin and highly invested in it. But I would have liked a more nuanced approach, not this deconstructed list of proofs of why Bitcoin doesn't have any flaws. Doesn't really explain the underlying foundations of it and stays superficial which kind of misses the real WHY it's one of the best assets and security nowadays.

want to get rich? Read this book.

The few moments it will take to read this book will be one of the most rewarding time you will ever spend. Opportunity knocks often, but most people do not answer the door.

[Jake Hanna · Rating 5 out of 5]

This a great composition of everything Michael Saylor has said. I would recommend reading this book if you want to understand Michael Saylor’s thought processes behind Bitcoin. Anil does a great job of dividing his ideas into chapters and with diagrams that he created.

Would highly recommend!

Excellent summary of many Michael Saylor presentations combined with nice informatics from the author.

Good survey of Saylor’s philosophies and personality, but not exhaustive. The print is too small, especially in the graphics that were included.
