‘We buy real Bitcoin’- Michael Saylor rejects ‘paper BTC’ claims

Michael Saylor, founder and chairman of MicroStrategy, has publicly denied claims that his company has been purchasing 'paper BTC' or rehypothecated Bitcoin. The denial comes amid community scrutiny over the firm's substantial BTC holdings, which total 712K BTC. Critics, including security researcher Jameson Lopp, have questioned whether the company can verify that its custodians are not using its holdings for other purposes. An on-chain analysis revealed that while approximately 415K BTC held at Coinbase and Anchorage are traceable, over 110K BTC remains unaccounted for across its custodians. Additionally, more than 183K BTC held with Fidelity Custody is not easily verifiable due to its wallet structure. Despite these concerns and a recent slide in its stock price, Saylor maintains the company only buys "real Bitcoin," audits its custodians, and does not engage in rehypothecation.
