我今天和杰夫·多曼在一起。
I'm here with Jeff Dorman.

我们还请到了城堡岛资本的创始合伙人马特·沃尔什。
We also have Matt Walsh, founding partner at Castle Island Ventures.
马特也上过我们节目好几次了,只是最近没来过。
Also, we've had Matt on the podcast plenty of times, but not recently.
马特,欢迎再次做客。
Matt, welcome back.
很高兴见到你,大卫。
Good to see you, David.
很高兴见到你,杰夫。
Good to see you, Jeff.
好的。
Alright.
迈克尔·塞勒和他的策略现在有点陷入困境了。
So Michael Saylor and strategy are in a bit of a predicament.
他们或许暂时争取到了一点时间,但我不确定他们是不是真的脱困了。
They might might have bought themselves some time, but I don't know if they're really out of the predicament.
我想和你们详细聊聊这个困境到底是什么。
And I want to go through with you guys exactly the nature of this predicament.
也许我们可以先从这个问题开始:你觉得Stretch以后还能再回到100美元吗?
Maybe just to really start this question off, I think the question that I would like to know is will Stretch ever trade back at a $100 ever again?
Jeff,这个问题我先抛给你,想听听你的看法。
Maybe, Jeff, I'll just throw that one to you and just see see what you think about that.
我觉得有可能。
I think it can.
不过我要提醒一下,接下来我说的每一句话,都要注意,谈策略这事儿不能绝对化。
I mean, actually, I'll I'll caution everything I'm about to say throughout this entire discussion is that you can't really talk in absolutes with strategy.
所有事情都只是概率问题。
Everything has probabilities.
所以我觉得,它重回100美元的概率很低,可能只有个位数,但也不是完全没戏。
So I would say the probability is very low, probably single digits that it gets back to 100 but it can.
说到底,买Stretch这种东西的人,其实就两类。
I mean you know ultimately there's two cohorts of people who buy something like Stretch right?
一类是不太了解情况的小散户,比如你父母那辈人,他们只关心每个月的股息有没有按时发,发了就开心,因为他们靠固定收入生活,根本不会去看月度报表或实际资本状况。
One is sort of uninformed retail kind of like your mom and pops who all they care about is every month did the dividend get paid and if so they're happy because they're living on a fixed income and don't even look at the monthly statements or the actual capital.
另一类人则在做概率计算:我们还有多少个月的现金流缓冲?每年拿12个点的利息,值不值得冒分红被砍、价格暴跌四五十点的风险?
And two are people who are probably doing the probability math of well how many months of runway do we have, and is it worth getting 12 points of interest every year relative to a chance that it might fall 40 or 50 points if they ever cut the dividend.
所以我认为,从未来发行策略的角度来看,Stretch这个工具用处不大。
So I think it's gonna be a less than useful tool for strategy going forward in terms of issuance.
我不觉得它能真正回升到100以上,让公司能大量卖出以买入更多比特币,但也不能排除它最终会回到九十几的中高位——等故事慢慢平息,大家发现他们还有两年的股息覆盖能力时。
I don't think it'll ever get above 100 in a meaningful way where they can actually sell a ton of it to buy more Bitcoin but I wouldn't rule it out that it gets back to the you know mid to high 90s eventually as you know the story kind of calms down and people recognize that they've got two years of dividend coverage.
我看过你们两位的节目,Matt,我听了你的播客,也读了你们所有的推文,我觉得你们的大方向是一致的。
Now I've watched both of your guys' both on, Matt listened to your podcast and I read all of your guys' tweets and so I think you guys are directionally aligned.
所以如果你们之间有任何观点上的分歧,我希望你们能明确指出来。
So if there is any dislocation in your guys' opinions, I I would like to have you guys flag that.
不过,Matt,你觉得Stretch有可能回升到200美元吗?
But, Matt, what do you think about the idea of Stretch trading back up at $200?
我的意思是,理论上什么都有可能。
I mean, I guess anything's possible.
你看看他们昨天公布的那些内容,这资本结构真是复杂得可以。
If you look at what they announced yesterday I mean, talk about complicated capital structure here.
第一,他们宣布了新的美元储备政策。
Number one is they announced a new US dollar reserve policy.
现在他们的覆盖期已经达到了十七点四个月。
So looks like they're up to seventeen point four months of coverage.
这笔钱是用来支付优先股和整个资本结构中的债务的。
That's to service the preferreds and the indebtedness across the cap table.
第二,是Stretch股息,他们已经提高到了12%
Number two is the Stretch dividend, so they increased it to 12.
很明显,这是想留住投资者继续持有这个产品。
Clearly trying to make a play to have people stay in that product.
他们公布的第三件事,是一个数字信贷回购计划。
The third thing they announced is a digital credit repurchase program.
他们计划拿出最多十亿美元,用于回购优先股系列。
So they allocate up to $1,000,000,000 in repurchases across the preferred stack.
所以,他们能回购吗?
So, yeah, could they repurchase it?
他们能把比例推到接近百分之百吗?
Could they drive you know, closer to a 100?
我觉得有可能。
I could see that.
他们还宣布了另外一百亿美元的普通股回购计划,以及一项价值12.5亿美元的比特币变现计划,打算把这些比特币换成美元。
They also announced a common equity repurchase program for another billion dollars, and they announced a Bitcoin monetization plan for 1,250,000,000 that they could sell into US dollars.
这些措施的组合会不会推高优先股的价格?
So could some combination of that push the prefers up?
当然会。
Sure.
但未来它还能成为一个有效的融资平台吗?
Now is it going to be a useful issuance platform in the future?
我非常怀疑。
I highly doubt that.
他们宣布的那套东西,其实是个数字信贷资本框架。
The thing about the what they announced is that they announced a framework, a digital credit capital framework.
但话说得实在太绕了。
It was not in plain speak.
咱们能不能用大白话讲讲,这到底是个啥?
Can we just say in plain speak what what was that?
你就用五岁孩子都能听懂的话说清楚,别跟我扯什么数字信贷资本框架。
In simple explain like on five years old terms, Like, I don't wanna hear digital credit capital framework.
他们到底宣布了什么,马特?
What did they announce, Matt?
听好了。
Look.
他们手头的现金,大概只够撑九个月来支付优先股股息。
So they had about, what, nine months of cash to service the preferreds.
市场现在都炸了。
Market's freaking out.
他们要么得出售股权,要么就得卖比特币。
They need to either sell equity or they need to sell Bitcoin.
上周他们卖了一大笔普通股,超过十亿美元。
They sold common equity in size last week, over a billion dollars of common equity.
他们实际上宣布的是,我们会主动管理这张资产负债表。
And what they basically announced is that we're going to actively manage this balance sheet.
我们会努力让优先股继续维持下去。
We're going to seek to keep the preferreds in the game.
我们不会牺牲优先股的利益。
We're not going to sacrifice the preferreds.
杰夫对这个比特币、普通股和优先股之间的三难困境,有些不错的见解。
Think Jeff's had some good takes around this trilemma here between Bitcoin, the common equity, and the preferreds.
我觉得要找到一个对这三类股东都有利的结果,真的很难。
And I think it's really difficult to find an outcome that is beneficial to all three cohorts there.
但他们本质上是宣布了:听好了。
But they basically announced, look.
我们打算好好平衡这三类利益方。
We're gonna try to manage these three constituents.
杰夫,你觉得这种策略真能维持稳定吗?
Jeff, do you think that that is even a stable equilibrium for strategy?
三种不同的投资群体——MSTR普通股投资者、Stretch优先股投资者,还有BITGET代币本身。
The the three different investor bases, the MSTR equity investors, the Stretch Preferred Investors, and then BITGET coin itself.
这三者之间真的能达成平衡吗?
Is it possible to balance between these things?
不可能。
No.
说实话,这正是这家公司最大的问题。
I mean, I think that that's a 100% the problem with this company.
根本不存在触发破产的机制,对吧?
I mean, it's not there's no trigger for it to go bankrupt here.
对吧?
Right?
接下来并没有强制平仓比特币的情况发生,或者其他类似的事情。
There's no forced liquidations of bitcoin coming up or anything like that.
这家公司未来的问题在于,资本结构的每一部分都在跟其他部分打消耗战。
The problem with this company going forward is simply that each part of the cap structure is in a war with the other parts of the cap structure.
对某一部分有利的事情,必然会对其他部分造成负面影响。
Everything that is good for one part is gonna be negative for other parts.
除非比特币价格直接暴涨到二十万美元,否则资本结构的各个部分根本不可能全都满足——其实还有第四方,马特都没提,就是那些债权人。他们目前完全被覆盖了,但未来四年里每年都会有一笔十亿美元的债务到期或可回售。
There's no way short of Bitcoin just mooning to 200,000 that all parts of the capital structure, and really there's a fourth part which Matt didn't even mention, which is the debt holders, right, which are fully covered, but that's coming due at some point in the next four years as well with about a billion dollars of maturities and puts coming every year.
所以资本结构一共有四个部分,根本不可能让所有方面都满意。
So there's four parts of the cap structure and there's just no way to satisfy all of them.
用大白话来说,他们昨天宣布的其实就是:我们现在成了一个主动管理的对冲基金。
What I would say in layman's term, they announced yesterday, in layman terms, is basically we are now an actively managed hedge fund.
以前我们只做一件事:卖股票买比特币。现在不一样了。
We are going to actively it used to be all we do is sell stock to buy Bitcoin.
对吧?
Right?
四年前这事儿还很简单。
That was a simple story four years ago.
后来变成了:我们卖各种东西来买比特币。
Then it was, oh, we sell all kinds of things to buy Bitcoin.
我们卖优先股,卖债券,卖股票,全都为了买比特币。
We sell preferreds, we sell debt, we sell equity to buy Bitcoin.
再后来,有时候得卖点比特币,现在干脆是啥都能卖、啥都能买。
Then it was, well, sometimes we might have to sell some Bitcoin and now it's basically everything we can sell or buy.
对吧?
Right?
他们的资本结构里,每一个部分现在都可能被拿来买卖。
So it's like every single part of their cap structure, we may sell or buy.
我们可能还会发行更多债务。
We may sell more debt.
也可能像他们已经做过的那样,回购债务。
We may buy back the debt like they've already done.
我们可能会再卖一些股权。
We may sell more equity.
我们也可能回购股权。
We might buy back the equity.
我们可能会出售优先股。
We may sell the preferreds.
我们也可能回购优先股。
We may buy back the preferreds.
我们可能会买入比特币。
We may buy Bitcoin.
我们可能会卖出比特币。
We may sell Bitcoin.
对吧?
Right?
他们实际上是在说,我们现在成了一个主动管理的对冲基金,唯一要做的就是盯着资本结构这四个部分彼此激烈冲突,然后利用这种冲突,去套利他们无端制造出来的波动。
They're basically saying we are now an actively managed hedge fund, and all we're gonna do is look at the fact that all four parts of this capital structure are literally at war with each other, and we're going to take advantage of that and try to monetize that volatility that they created for no reason.
杰夫,你提到可转债,但他们在这方面没发表任何意见。
Jeff, you bring up the converts, and they were silent on that front.
我的意思是,你觉得让他们重新融资这些可转债会有多容易?
I mean, how easy do you think it's going to be to get them to refinance these converts?
未来两三年内,有67亿美元的债券到期。
6,700,000,000 in maturities over the next couple of years.
是的,我觉得其实挺容易的。
Yeah, I actually think it's pretty easy.
作为前债务资本市场投资银行家,你知道,业内常开玩笑说,买可转债的人根本不是真正的债券投资者,对吧?
You know, as a former debt capital markets investment banker, you know, the joke with all convertible bond buyers is they're not real debt investors, right?
真正的债券投资者会看契约条款。
Real debt investors look at covenants.
他们会仔细研究文件。
They look at the docs.
他们会深入细节,搞清楚自己到底买的是什么。
They're very into the weeds in terms of what you're getting.
可转债投资者根本不在乎公司本身。
Convertible bond investors, they don't care about the underlying company.
他们其实也不太关心信用评级。
They don't even care about the credit, really.
他们在乎的是波动性,还有能不能做空,对吧?
They care about the volatility and, you know, are they able to arm it, right?
股价够不够流动性,能不能方便地做空?
Is the stock liquid enough that they can short it?
有没有期权市场可以利用?
Are there options markets that you can take?
说白了,这根本就是个套利市场。
Basically, it's just an arb market.
所以十亿美元的可转债,尤其在这么大的市值背景下,滚动起来其实很容易。
So a billion dollars of converts is actually very easy to roll especially with a equity market cap the size.
你的债务规模有六百亿,但股权市值可是五千亿美元啊。
I mean, you're talking about 6,000,000,000 of debt on a, what, a 50,000,000,000 equity market cap.
这其实不难操作。
It's not hard to do.
当然现在确实有timing的问题,比如这个月因为MSTR闹出一堆风波和负面新闻,做起来会比较棘手;但要是说六个月、一年后,市场平静下来,优先股回到90多块,大家也就没那么在意了。
Now there's always timing considerations to it, meaning, like, it'll be harder to do, you know, this month given all of the noise that they've created and all of the negative press around MSTR, but you know we talk six months from now, twelve months from now, things are calming down, the preferreds are back in the 90s, nobody's really that concerned about it.
这些债务再融资非常容易。
Very easy to refinance these.
不过问题会越来越严重,因为第一次他们发的时候,全是零息债券,溢价能到25%、30%。
Now again, it's going to just continue to exacerbate the problem because the first time they did this they could do all zero coupon converts that were up 25, up 30 type premiums.
每次再融资,条件都会变得更苛刻一些。
Each time they have to do this, the terms are gonna get a little more onerous.
下次可能就得给2%或3%的票息,转换比例也可能对MicroStrategy没那么有利,但总之还是能做出来。
They're either gonna come at 2% coupons or 3% coupons, and maybe the conversion ratio is slightly less in MicroStrategy's favor and things like that, but they will be able to do it.
债务本身真不算大问题,尤其是看他们把到期日错开得很分散,基本上每年只有一笔债券到期。
The debt really is not a huge problem especially when you look at the way they staggered the maturities where it's only, you know, basically one bond issuance every year.
从这点来看,他们在安排到期日上做得挺聪明,让再融资变得很顺畅。
So in that regard, they did a pretty good job of staggering maturities and making this pretty refinanceable.
所以他们在新框架公布时,搞了一次USC储备金的增资。
So they they raised they had a USC reserve raise in this new framework announcement.
他们把储备金提高到了25.5亿美元。
They increased the reserve to 2,550,000,000.
我不清楚具体加了多少,但数额相当大。
I don't know how much they added, but it's it's substantial.
这是通过出售MSTR股票筹集到的一大笔资本。
A substantial amount of capital raised from selling the MSTR.
目前MSTR的股价是1.04。
MSTR is right now is at trading at one point o four.
也就是说,它的股价比他们持有的比特币实际价值高出4%。
So it's 4% above the actual value of the Bitcoin that they hold.
没多久以前,大概就两三个月前,它还在1.3,现在跌到了1.04。
Not terribly long ago, just like maybe a couple months ago, it was at 1.3 and now it's down to 1.04.
上周有一阵子,股价甚至跌破了1,最低到过0.99和0.98。
For a moment last week it got below one it was at like point nine nine point nine eight.
在我看来,他们现在实际上是被逼到墙角了。我不确定这是否明令禁止,但至少大家默认不会以低于1倍MNAV的价格发行MSTR,因为那样就完全违背了MSTR存在的意义。
Essentially it is backed up against a wall as I see it and I don't know if this is explicitly not allowed but at least there's a social contract of not issuing MSTR below an MNAV of one because that invalidates the whole point of MSTR.
我们作为股东持有MSTR。
We're holding MSTR as an equity investor.
我想要的是对比特币的集中敞口,这正是我买MSTR的原因。
I I want, you know, concentrated exposure to Bitcoin and that's why I buy MSTR.
所以,只要MSTR的价格基本维持在1附近,这个工具、这个策略就等于失效了。
So that tool, that that option, that strategy has is gone so long as MSTR trades essentially at one.
对我来说,除了卖比特币之外,没有别的选择,而他们现在要么正在这么做,要么至少允许这么做。
To me, there is no other option other than to sell Bitcoin and that they are exercising that option or at least allowing them to exercise that option.
但当MSTR价格在1附近时,这原本是他们用来缓冲、为Stretch融资计划增加分红月份的主要手段。
But with with MSTR at at one, that's kinda like been their main source of padding of of adding the months of dividend to the Stretch facility.
所以只要MSTR价格还在1左右徘徊,这个策略就始终面临困境。
And so with MSCR at one, to me, there is always a bit of a predicament that strategy is in so long MSCR trades around one.
这就是我的分析。
That's my analysis.
马特,你怎么看这个?
Matt, what do you think about that?
首先,我真希望我们能有个统一的方式来计算MNAV。
First of all, I just I wish we had a common way to represent MNAV.
好像每个人算这个的方法都不一样,所以策略的MNAV也就不一样。
It seems like every dad has a different way to calculate this, and so strategies MNAV is different.
这不是普通的股权市值MNAV。
It's not a common equity market cap MNAV.
这是企业价值MNAV。
It's an enterprise value MNAV.
所以根据它现在的交易价格,数值会高一些。
And so depending on where this is trading, you know, it's higher.
如果你用另一种方法来算,MNAV看起来就会低得多。
If you use another methodology here, they would actually look a lot lower on an MNAV basis.
但更重要的是,我觉得你说得对。
But, you know, bigger point is I think you're right.
我觉得你不是在卖普通股,就是在卖比特币。
I think you're either selling common equity or you're selling BIT Bitcoin.
那他们有没有什么出人意料的主意?
Now are there out of the box ideas that they could do?
他们能不能把软件业务卖了?
Could they sell the software business?
能不能试试其他方式来融资?
Could they explore other types of instruments to raise credit?
当然可以。
Yes.
我敢打赌他现在正跟ChatGPT聊个不停呢。
I'm sure he's talking to chat GPT about this all day long right now.
再给我多提几个点子。
Give me a few more ideas.
这些办法其实都存在。
And, they're out there.
我觉得他们可能还有一些很冷门的招数,毕竟在资本市场上,他们可是高手。
I think there's some esoteric things they potentially could do, and they are wizards from a capital markets perspective.
但说实话,归根结底,问题还是在于:你们到底是在卖比特币,还是在卖普通股?
But yeah, I think this boils down to, Are you selling Bitcoin, or are you selling common equity?
从受托责任的角度来看,这个问题其实特别有意思。
I think it's really interesting to think about this from a fiduciary perspective.
关键是要搞清楚,这里到底该用哪个杠杆点?
You know, what is the right lever to pull here?
董事会里肯定得经历不少艰难的讨论。
And those have got to be some difficult conversations at the board.
整个思路不就是,他们有MSTR,有比特币持仓,还有那些Stretch投资者,以及可转换票据吗?
Isn't the whole idea here that strategy, they have MSTR, they have their Bitcoin holdings, they have their, you know, their Stretch investors, they have their convertible notes.
杰夫,你说这整个策略现在其实就是个主动管理的对冲基金。
You know, Jeff, you called this strategy is now just an actively managed hedge fund.
他们已经积累了一整套工具,这么多选择,这么多可能性,等于给自己留足了余地。
Well, they've built up all of these tools that all these options, all these doors that they can choose to walk in, they've built up optionality for themselves.
这种说法准确吗?或者你打算怎么修正这个说法?
Is that a correct framing or or how would you how how would you amend that that illustration?
嗯,我觉得吧。
Well, I yeah.
说实话,他们这些年在资本市场确实做得不错,像你所说的一样积累了这么多选择权,但别忘了,当初投资的人主要是想获得杠杆化的比特币敞口,而现在他们谈的全是各种操作手段,想做些增厚收益的决定,这已经不是当初那回事了。
I mean, again, I think they have done a very good job over the years with capital markets to build up that optionality as you said, but it doesn't change the fact that most people who originally invested in this wanted to get some sort of levered Bitcoin, and that's just not exactly what they're doing anymore right now that they're talking about all these different levers they can pull and trying to be, you know, make accretive decisions here and there.
更别说他们其实并不擅长这些操作。
Not to mention they're not very good at it.
对吧?
Right?
他们老是在高位抄底比特币,结果又被迫在低位抛售。
They continue to top last Bitcoin at high levels and then have to be forced to sell it at lower levels.
再看看他们刚做的可转债操作,对吧?
Even look at what they just did with the convert, right?
他们用账上的现金回购了15亿美元的可转债,代价却是400亿美元的企业估值。
They bought back a $1,500,000,000 convert with the cash on their balance sheet that cost them $40,000,000,000 in enterprise value.
这简直就是个毫无必要的重大失误。
I mean, just a horrific unforced error.
对吧?
Right?
你是懂的吧?
You know mean?
他们用现金做这种事,却没想着同时补上现金流,这完全说不通。毕竟,整个下跌的开端就是他们曾经账上有20亿美元现金。
It just, like, it made no sense why they did that with the cash while not also finding a way to replenish the cash at the same time because that's what started this whole downward spiral in the first place is, you know, they, at one point, had 2,000,000,000 in cash on the balance sheet.
优先股持有人一开始还觉得没问题。
Preferred holders felt like they were okay.
结果突然间,他们把所有现金都拿去回购债务了。
And then all of a sudden, they removed all the cash to buy back the debt.
投资者一下子就慌了。
People freaked out.
股价立马被疯狂抛售。
People started hammering the stock.
结果呢,就因为一个糟糕的交易决定,他们整整蒸发了四百亿的企业价值。
And, literally, they lost 40,000,000,000 in enterprise value because of a terrible trading decision.
所以,第一,我觉得他们就算有再多工具,也未必真有这本事。
So, you know, one, I don't think they're that good at it even if they have a lot of options.
第二,就算他们真有这本事,这也不是当初投资者们投资时所期待的方向。
And, two, even if they are good at it, it's not exactly what their original investor base, signed up for.
我甚至可以再进一步说,我们从来不是MSTR的铁杆看多者,但直到九个月前,我还在替他们辩护,因为我觉得大多数人对MSTR的解读都太离谱了——比如总有人说他们马上要被清算,根本没意识到这根本不可能;或者说他们会被迫卖资产还债,却不知道债务契约里根本没这种条款,也不会破产。
And I I would go even further that, you know, we've never been bulls per se on MSTR, but I often defended it up until nine months ago because I thought that most of the takes on MSTR were outlandish and wrong, meaning most people are like, oh, they're gonna get liquidated, not understanding that that isn't gonna happen, or, you know, they're gonna be forced to sell the debt, not understanding that there was nothing in the debt covenants that were gonna force it, they're or gonna go bankrupt.
说白了,根本不会发生,因为债务协议里根本没有任何限制性条款。
And it's like, well, that's not gonna happen because, again, there was no covenants in the debt to form a bit.
所以我以前总替他们说话,因为这事儿其实很简单,只是大多数人理解错了。
So, I was often defending them because it was a pretty simple story that that most people were misinterpreting.
但自从他们堆了这么多债务,尤其是用现金利息来支撑优先股之后,情况就彻底没法辩了——虽然破产的风险依然很低,但对某些股东群体来说,风险已经实实在在存在了。
But once they layered on all of that debt and ultimately really just the preferreds with that cash interest, that's when it just became indefensible anymore because, you know, there's still not really a risk of bankruptcy, but there is a real risk to certain parts of their holder base.
坦白讲,他们对这件事的解释简直糟糕透顶,甚至有点像在误导人。
And quite frankly, they do a terrible, if not fraudulent, job of explaining that.
对吧?
Right?
把优先股包装成货币市场基金,这简直太荒唐了。
I mean, marketing the preferreds as a money market is, you know, ridiculous.
对于那些长期投资困境债券和信贷市场的人来说,都知道有不少公司发行了累积型优先股,一旦停止派息,就长期趴在股价的三到四毛钱上,根本看不到还钱的希望。
You know, for those who have invested in distressed and credit markets for for a long time, know that there's lots of companies out there that have cumulative preferreds that they just shut off the dividend, and they just sit there forever trading at 30 or 40¢ on the dollar with no real hopes of repayment.
如果你持有这些优先股,其实只有两种不错的结局。
Like, if you own the preferreds, there's there's there's two really good outcomes.
对吧?
Right?
一种是他们持续卖出比特币或股票,一直给你付钱。
One is that they continue to sell a bunch of Bitcoin or stock and pay you forever.
另一种是他们真的破产了,因为优先股有全额担保,你反而能拿回钱。
Two is that they actually go bankrupt because you'll get your money back in a bankruptcy because they're fully covered.
最糟的情况是他们停发股息,但又没有触发条款逼他们采取行动,结果就一直卡在三到四毛钱的价位上,这最终最有可能发生。
The worst outcome is they stop paying the dividend, but there's no triggers to force them to do anything, and it just languishes at 30 or 40¢ on the dollar forever, which is most likely what will happen eventually.
对吧?
Right?
所以,再说一遍,这事儿是……
So so, again, it's it's
对Stretch来说,最可能的情况就是这样。
That's the most likely case for Stretch.
不一定现在,但迟早肯定会发生。
Not necessarily today, but eventually for sure.
我的意思是,他们现在已经有17亿美元的现金股息了,而且我们说过,随着债务展期带来的更高利息支出,这个数字还可能继续增长,谁知道他们还会搞出什么别的名堂,但一个根本没现金流入的生意,每年拿钱去付这么多股息,根本不可能撑下去。
I mean, it it just you already have a billion 7 of cash dividends that that that's probably growing over time as we said with higher interest expense on the debt that they're gonna have to roll plus who knows if they come up with other things, but it it's just not feasible to pay that every year in a business that generates no cash flow.
所以迟早有一天,他们最有可能出来宣布:我们已经拥有了所有想拥有的比特币。
So at some point, the most likely probability at some point is that they come out and say, we now own all of the Bitcoin that we ever wanted to own.
比如说达到5%或者某个神奇的临界点。
Let's say a 5% or some magic threshold.
对吧?
Right?
他们会说,我们已经持有全部流通中比特币的5%。
And they're like, we own 5% of all outstanding Bitcoin.
我们再也不想买任何比特币了。
We never wanna buy anymore ever again.
从现在开始,我们就等着比特币像该有的那样上涨,所以继续派息毫无意义,反正我们也不在乎。
We're now just gonna sit there and wait for Bitcoin to go higher like it should, and therefore, there makes no sense for us to pay the dividends anymore because what do we care?
只要不再进入资本市场,派不派息我们根本无所谓。
You know, as long as we're not accessing the capital markets anymore, we don't care about the dividends.
所以,某种程度上,这迟早会是最终的结果。
So that has to be, you know, the endgame at some point.
你不可能永远这么持续派息下去。
You're not gonna just pay these dividends forever.
唯一要派息的原因,就是为了维持资本市场的通道,方便将来再融资或者做其他安排。
You know, the only reason to pay them is to keep the capital markets open to you so that you can refinance and do other things, you know, in the future.
我觉得这
I think it's a
关于法律风险,你提得真到位。
really good point on the legal exposure.
我觉得这里有三件事特别值得担心,万一出问题就麻烦了。
I think there's three things that I would really worry about here in terms of what could go wrong.
第一,比特币价格继续朝不利于他们的方向走。
One is the price of Bitcoin continues to go against them.
那样的话,他们就真悬了。
They're in trouble there.
第二,普通股这边的结构性资金流向也会跟他们作对,我觉得这会让他们被剔除出目前所处的那些指数。
Second would be just structural flows on the common equity side that go against them, and I think that would entail losing inclusion to the various indices that they're included in right now.
一旦被动资金撤出,这种情况下,可能会有五到一百亿美元的持续资金外流。
And so if passive flows go away, I I think you'd be looking at 5 to $10,000,000,000 of structural outflows in that type of situation.
第三点,就是杰夫刚才提到的法律风险。
And the third is what Jeff mentioned around the legal exposure here.
我以前还真没见过哪家公司像这样,不过我们做加密货币的,倒也见过几个。
So I I have never seen a company well, we're in crypto, I guess I have seen a few.
这家公司简直在大胆试探底线,把这类产品直接推给普通散户。
This company is really pushing the edge in terms of, marketing these products, to retail.
正如杰夫所说,他们把这东西包装成货币市场基金,但明眼人都知道,这根本不是什么货币市场基金。
And, you know, as Jeff said, this they are pitching this thing as a money market fund, and it is just definitely not a money market fund.
当我们提到‘欺诈’这个词时,脑海里浮现的画面往往是那个AI美女,躺在泳池边喝着玛格丽特,一脸懵地问:‘我怎么过上了这种生活?’
I mean the when we say the the f word, the fraud word fraudulent, the image that comes to mind is that AI babe get drinking the margarita by the poolside saying how did I get this life?
哦,我刚买了Stretch,但我真没法想象西勒会认真发这样的推文。
Oh I just bought Stretch And I cannot imagine that Saylor like was going to tweet this out at all seriously.
这明显就是个故意激怒人的玩笑,结果推特上真被彻底引爆了。
Like that had to be like a joke like rage bait which Twitter just like absolutely got rage baited.
但我不确定这还重要不重要了,反正现在我们已经在这里了,这东西已经跌破平价30%了。
But I don't know if that matters because now here we are and it like now the thing is like 30% off of the peg.
今天其实只跌了17%。
It's actually only 17% off today.
现在这种情况,简直可以直接当法庭上的证据A了。
And I and and now that that is just you could just see that as like exhibit a in a courtroom.
我们说的就是这个。
That's what we're talking about.
对吧?
Right?
是的,我觉得就是这样。
Yeah, I think it's that.
我觉得是那些播客访谈的作用。
I think it's the podcast appearances.
再说了,这件事最终会带来什么更大的影响呢?
I think it's also just the what's the bigger picture outcome here?
Saylor 提到要打造一家比特币信贷公司。
And so Saylor talks about building this Bitcoin credit company.
这到底是什么意思?
What does that actually mean?
说实话,我有点想不通,这在未来到底意味着什么?
I mean, I'm kinda struggling to understand what does that actually mean in the future?
十年后,你就成了比特币信贷机构。
Fast forward ten years, you're a Bitcoin credit institution.
你是打算继续发行这种优先股吗?
Are you just issuing more of these preferreds?
我觉得他们到底要怎么做,路线图其实并不清晰。
I think it's not very clear what the actual roadmap is.
我觉得吧,他老是改目标,买卖股票的时间点、价位,还有那些他们自己发明的术语,比如每股比特币之类的,变来变去。
Well, then I think, you know, when you constantly change the goalposts, which he's done multiple times in terms of when they're gonna buy or sell the stock, what levels, when they constantly make up terms, which they have with, you know, their their Bitcoin per share and all those others.
你老是在网站上放一些毫无数学依据的看跌期权数据,连他计算夏普比率的方式都说不通。
When you constantly bake put numbers on a website that have no real mathematical basis, like even the way he calculates Sharpe ratio makes no sense.
就像马特刚才提到的,MNAV和其他计算方法不一致。
As as Matt already mentioned, you know, the MNAV is inconsistent with other ways.
而且,他本身就在打擦边球,毕竟他用的比特币工具监管规则很少。
Like, there's a lot of not not to mention the fact that, you know, he's sort of operating in a gray area anyway just from the sense that he is using an instrument Bitcoin that there's not a lot of rules around.
对吧?
Right?
我的意思是,你不可能像他那样搞个控股公司,然后往里头买英伟达的股票,因为你这就成了注册投资公司,对吧?
I mean, it's not like you can create a holding company like he has done and just buy a NVIDIA stock in there because you'd be a a RIC, right, a registered investment company.
这中间是有明确规定的。
And there's rules around that.
但他买的是这种前所未有的冷门资产,跟历史上任何其他资产都扯不上关系,所以他才能绕开一大堆规则。
But because you're buying this weird esoteric asset that doesn't really relate to any other asset in history, he's getting around a lot of rules.
所以这种情况下,想不提到那个词都难——当然,最终还得法院来定,但怎么说呢,这里面的问题确实不少。
So it's like, it's hard not to use the f word in that sense because, you know, again, the courts would ultimately decide that, but, I mean, there's definitely a lot of let's put it this way.
如果你是负责起诉MicroStrategy的检察官,肯定能找出一大堆证据来支持你的指控,对吧?
If you were a lawyer in charge of a prosecution against MSTR, you'd certainly have a lot of things to use as evidence to try to prove your case, right?
他们明明有这么一只下金蛋的鹅,却偏偏还要在一些明明被律师警告过不能碰的事情上玩火,这真让人想不通。
So it's bizarre that they had such a golden goose and decided to, you know, continue to fly that close to the sun on on some things that I'm sure they were given legal advice not to do.
你好,圣所银行。
Hey, Bank of Sanctuary.
我们暂时中断一下,来个简短的停顿,跟Jeff和Matt聊完这段。
Quick pause in the episode with Jeff and Matt.
我马上带你们回到那里。
I'll get you guys right back there.
不过在那之前,我得跟你们聊聊OKX,也就是纽约证券交易所的母公司洲际交易所。
But first, I gotta talk to you about OKX, the Intercontinental Exchange, which is the parent company behind the New York Stock Exchange.
他们以250亿美元的估值投资了OKX,计划今年晚些时候在OKX平台上推出经过代币化的纽交所股票和衍生品。
They backed OKX at a $25,000,000,000 valuation with a plan to launch tokenized NYSE stocks and derivatives later this year on OKX.
这终于把传统金融和去中心化金融全都整合到了一个应用里。
That's TradFi and DEFI all in the same app finally.
OKX拥有全球超过一亿两千万用户,正在把华尔街讨论了几十年的产品带到美国市场,而且真的做到了。
Trusted by over a 120,000,000 users globally, OKX is bringing products to The United States market that Wall Street has been talking about for decades, and OKX is delivering them.
在他们的新钱款应用里,这不是空谈,而是一条有机构背书、能落地执行的清晰路线图。
In their new money app, not just a vision, but a road map with institutional backing to execute upon it.
所以如果你还没用过OKX,节目说明里有个链接,可以享受6%的存款返利——这不是投资建议,而且纽约和德克萨斯州的用户无法使用。
So if you are not yet an OKX user, there is a link in the show notes to get a 6% deposit match on your money, not investment advice, and also not available in New York or Texas.
好了。
Alright.
我们继续听Matt和Jeff的那期对话。
Let's get back to the episode with Matt and Jeff.
他们周一公布的数字信贷资本框架里,最让人关注的点,是大家在推特上热议的——他们打算把Stretch的估值重新拉回100亿。
So with the the details of their digital credit capital framework that came out Monday, the the big takeaway that I think the discourse was growing going around on Twitter was that, oh, they are they are gonna try to get stretched back to a 100.
他们想尽力维持资本市场的运转。
They're gonna try and keep the capital markets open.
听起来有点不切实际,但他们真的在拼命争取。
They're it seems far fetched, but they're going for it.
现在听你们说,他们可能面临法律诉讼,这大概就是他们想对Stretch和持币者负责的原因——因为不这么做,就等着被起诉吧。
And now talking to you guys and seeing the potential legal action that they might be up against, that seems to be perhaps a motivating factor as to why they want to do their best right by Stretch and Stretch holders because the opposite of that seems to be going to the being taken to court.
这个分析靠谱吗?
Is that a fair, assessment?
我觉得他们只是需要一点时间,这周的公告就是为这个目的。
I think they just needed to buy some time here, and that's what this announcement was this week.
就是先把问题往后拖一拖。
So you kick the can down the road a little bit.
他们推出了一些举措,理论上对优先股持有人有利,至少比上周这个时候更清楚他们到底在做什么了。
You come out with some actions that theoretically will benefit the preferreds, and it's at least a little bit more clear what they're doing than it was this time last week.
我觉得特别有意思的是,就在他们转向数字信贷工具的时候,整个叙事也开始变了。
One of the things I found very interesting was right around the time they were pivoting to being this digital credit instrument, the narrative was kinda changing.
他们开始发行优先股。
They started to issue the preferreds.
皮特·布里杰加入了董事会。
Pete Bridger joined the board.
那是去年七月,他是信贷领域最顶尖的投资者之一,也是堡垒集团的创始人。
It was July of last year, one of the foremost investors in the credit space, founder of Fortress Group.
他悄悄离开了董事会,我想应该是这个六月,实际上。
He quietly left the board, I think it was in June of this month, actually.
这个六月,6月8日,我记得是这一天。
June this month, June 8, I believe.
这对我来说是个明显的信号。
I mean that's a tell to me.
你请来这么一位有分量的人加入董事会,正打算转型做信贷业务,结果他却悄无声息地从董事会上消失了,连公告里都只是轻描淡写地带过。
It's like you get someone like that on the board, you're making this pivot into credit and all of a sudden he's not on the board anymore very quietly in a proxy statement.
这可不是什么好兆头。
So not a great sign.
意思是,那位经验丰富、头脑聪明的专家,大概觉得这摊子事太乱,干脆不掺和了。
The idea is that the guy with all the smarts and the experience who is on the board is just said, I don't wanna be a part of this mess.
我没跟他聊过,但大概就是这样。
That's I mean, I haven't talked to him, but Right.
你得从字里行间去琢磨。
You'd have to read between the lines of Yeah.
对。
Yeah.
至少可以这么说。
A at least
作为一家上市公司,你肯定会认真考虑要不要卷入这种事。
considerate of a public company, you would be considering whether or not you wanna be involved in something like this.
或者只是他们的想法根本没人听。
Or just not having or just not having their ideas listened to.
对吧?
Right?
我的意思是,你也知道,确实如此。
I mean, again, you know Yeah.
世界上跟赛勒斯特别亲近的人本来就不多,但这个人可是把整个公司都买下来了。
There's not that many people in the world who are super close to Saylor, but, you know, this guy owns the whole company.
他基本上掌握了董事会42%的投票权。
He is basically, what, 42% of the voting rights on the board.
说白了,这本质上就是一个君主制。
Like, you know, it it it is all for all intents and purposes, this is basically a monarchy.
对吧?
Right?
所以你带着想法和建议来帮忙,结果人家可能根本不在乎。
So, you know, you come in with thoughts and ways to help, and you might just be like, don't care.
对吧?
Right?
我就是这么做的。
This is the way I'm doing it.
所以我觉得,这也完全有可能,就是说,这到底有什么意义呢,对吧,确实如此。
So, you know, I I think that's that's just as likely of a possibility, that that this is just what is the point, right Mhmm.
当你根本没法影响他们的决定时。
When when you have no real influence over what they're doing.
杰夫,上周或者前上周,我和瑞安看了你发的那条推文,关于你对接下来三种可能情景的概率分析。
Jeff, we read your tweet on the weekly roll up me and Ryan did last week or maybe two weeks ago about your scenario, your probability for three different scenarios moving forward.
那是在公告发布之前的事了。
And this was before the announcement.
我想听听你对更新后这些情景的看法。
So I want to get your take on the updated scenarios.
不过先简单回顾一下,你说有70%的可能性,这个策略会继续下去:继续抛售MSTR,MSTR溢价会大跌,但Stretch能喘口气,比特币本身倒没什么大问题。
But just to just to recap, said 70% chance that strategy continues just to sell MSTR, MSTR premium gets hammered, but Stretch gets some breathing room and Bitcoin's fine.
你认为有25%的可能性,西勒和公司会做对的事,就是大手笔抛售比特币,这样能大幅延长他们的资金寿命,让资产负债表上堆满现金,但代价是放弃大量比特币;或者有5%的可能性,他们直接取消股息,Stretch崩盘,资产变成不良,股息彻底没了,整个计划基本被放弃——你只给了5%的概率。
You give a 25% chance that Saylor and strategy does the right thing by just making a very large Bitcoin sale, which just clears it clears their runway for a very long time puts a lot of cash in the balance sheet gives up a bunch of coughs up a bunch of Bitcoin, or a 5% chance that they just kill the dividends stretch crashes, distressed asset, dividends are just for gone, and that things more or less abandoned, you only give a 5% chance.
现在我们已经知道了他们的数字资本框架细节,你的看法有变化吗?
Now that we have the details of their digital credit capital framework, has anything changed?
还是说你的分析没变,只是把判断推迟到九到十二个月后?
Or is that still your analysis, but now we just punt it down like nine to twelve months?
是的。
Yeah.
而且正因如此,我之前说过,很难用绝对的说法,所有事情都是概率加权的。但我认为我之前说的70%情景,其实就是他实际做的——继续当前的做法,牺牲MSTR来保全其他一切。
And again, that's why I earlier, it's hard to talk in absolutes, everything's probability weighted, but I think that 70% scenario that I said is basically what he did, right, which is just continue doing what we're doing, which is sacrificing MSTR at the expense of everything else.
说白了,他们就是这么做的。
You know, that's essentially what they did.
对吧?
Right?
他们卖出了大量股票。
They sold an enormous amount of stock.
他们把所有压力都压到了那个最低的MNAV水平,现在等于是在说,短期内不会再卖股票了,而且他们还有大约一年半的现金缓冲。
They pushed it all the way down to that one MNAV level, and now they're essentially saying they're probably not gonna sell stock again anytime soon, and and they have this, you know, year and a half cash buffer.
我还是觉得,最该做的就是干脆利落,一次性把大量比特币卖光。
I still think the right thing would have been to just rip the Band Aid off and do an enormous enormous Bitcoin sale.
你回看四五周前,他们才卖了两百五十万美元的比特币,搞得好像在玩什么花活儿似的。
Like, even you can go back, what, four or five weeks ago when they sold the two and a half million dollars of Bitcoin to be cute or funny or whatever they were trying to do.
说白了,这根本就是瞎折腾。
Like, just again, it just was nonsense.
对吧?
Right?
既然迟早要卖,不如直接大手笔出手,痛快解决,把这根刺拔掉,省得拖着。
If you're going to do it anyway, you should have done a huge number, gotten it over with, ripped the Band Aid off, and removed that overhead.
总的来说,加密市场疲软有各种原因,但只要是跟赛勒和市场担忧直接相关的部分,最干净的解决办法就是一次性大额抛售比特币。
So, you know, in terms of, like, crypto in general has been weak for a lot of reasons, but for whatever part of the story has been directly related to Saylor and this overhang, the clearest way to have removed that overhang would have been to do a giant Bitcoin sale.
可他们偏偏先大卖股票,又暗示还有一百二十五亿的比特币要卖,这反而让本不该有的担忧继续挂在比特币头上。
The fact that they did instead a giant equity sale and then tease that they have a billion and a quarter more of Bitcoin to sell, it just keeps that overhang a little bit on top of Bitcoin that didn't need to be there.
所以我觉得,从目前的概率来看,他们砍股息的可能性还是低于5%,一方面是因为法律上的限制,另一方面他们刚为了保住这点现金流,损失了四百亿的企业价值。
So I would say, know, in terms of probabilities right now, you know, I'd still say less than five five or less than 5% chance that they do the nuclear option of cutting the dividends, right, both for legal purposes and because they just, you know, lost $40,000,000,000 in enterprise value to raise the couple billion to keep that alive for the time being.
所以我觉得短期内他们几乎不可能这么做。
So I think that's very low likelihood that they're gonna do that in the near term.
说实话,眼下最该做的就是什么都不做,对吧?
You know, short term, truthfully, at this point, the right thing to do is just do nothing, right?
他们已经为未来一年半清理了障碍,争取到了时间,那就干脆别动,静观其变。
They cleared the deck for a year and a half, they bought time, you just do nothing, right?
这一年里,别再当焦点人物了。
Stop being the main attraction for a year.
别再发那么多推文,别搞任何动作,就让市场自己消化,别添乱。
Stop tweeting so much, stop doing anything, just let the market play out for a while and don't do anything.
我觉得现在最明智的选择就是这样,但可能性最低,毕竟这么多年下来,我们都清楚他有点自恋,甚至有点疯狂。
I think that's the right move right now, but probably the lowest probability just because we've learned over the years that he's, you know, somewhat of a narcissist and a lunatic.
所以,虽然这是我建议的做法,但我估计他们根本不会听。
So, you know, even though that that would be my suggestion, but I don't think they'll do that.
展开剩余字幕(还有 371 条)
目前最有可能的情况是,授权出售这12.5亿枚比特币的行为,会在他实际出手前一直压制着比特币的价格。
The most likely path at this point is that, you know, the authorization to sell the billion and a quarter Bitcoin probably keeps a lid on Bitcoin until he actually sells it.
迟早他得把这些比特币卖了,然后说:好了,这段时间我们真的不玩了。我觉得那时候比特币才会见底,MSTR也一样——当他们终于不再拿出售消息吊市场胃口,真正把现金记在账上,什么都不做的时候。
At some point, he has to sell that and be like, now we are actually done for a while and that's when I think Bitcoin probably bottoms and and and, you know, MSTR probably bottoms as well when they actually finally stop teasing the market with sales and just do it, hold the cash on the balance sheet, and and and do nothing.
我的看法是,过去几周其实有各种资本结构操作可以做。
So, you know, my my stance is that there was all kinds of capital structure trades to do over the last few weeks.
但现在这些操作基本都结束了。
I think it's largely over right now.
至少在短期内,除非再出现什么不必要的失误,或者市场逼着他们做点什么,否则我觉得接下来一段时间,这事儿就会变得特别平淡。
Think, you know, at least for the time being until, you know, another unforced error or the market forces, you know, force something else, I think this is just sort of a boring story for the foreseeable future.
马特,你认同这个说法吗?
Does that resonate with you, Matt?
对。
Yeah.
我觉得他肯定会把这12.5亿美元的比特币卖了,然后接下来六到十二个月按兵不动。
I think clearly what he's going to do is just sell the $1,250,000,000 of Bitcoin and kinda sit tight for six to twelve months.
其实另一个选择是直接卖更多比特币,比如一大笔。
You know, another option here would have been to just sell a much bigger amount of Bitcoin.
如果我是这家公司的董事会成员,我大概会建议直接卖一大块,七万到十万枚比特币左右,就这么干。
That's probably what I would have recommended if I was on board of a company like this is just sell a big chunk, like 75,000 Bitcoin up to 10 a 100,000 Bitcoin, something like that.
这样就能给自己留出很长的缓冲空间。
Give yourself a a huge runway.
当然,另一个选择是干脆不卖,等着比特币价格上涨。
I mean, another option would be to not sell any Bitcoin and just hope the price of Bitcoin goes up.
要是想想现在压着比特币价格的因素,我觉得首先是MicroStrategy的这个问题。
If you think about what's weighing on Bitcoin right now, I think you have the micro strategy question.
然后是利率的大问题,还有量子计算的潜在影响。
I think you have a big interest rate question, and I think you have the quantum question.
那六个月后比特币价格会涨吗?
So will the price of Bitcoin be up in six months?
谁说得准呢。
Who knows?
这谁也说不准,但我也能想象西勒直接赌一把,就盼着六个月后比特币价格能涨上去。
It's anyone's guess, but I could also see Saylor just taking that bet and just hoping that the price of Bitcoin goes up in six months.
对。
Yeah.
做点什么
Doing something
我当然不清楚内情,但我觉得这招不太靠谱。
I obviously I I I don't know this but it doesn't feel like that works to me.
因为西勒是个大玩家,
Like there there's something about seller is a large enough player.
他的策略也是个大动作,
Strategy is a large enough player.
他手上有八十五万个比特币,
He's got 850,000 Bitcoins.
所以你刚才说的那七八万到十万枚的抛售量,对他来说可是相当可观的一笔了。
So sell selling the number that you said, like 70 to a 100,000 Bitcoins is a very meaningful chunk of their Bitcoin holdings.
这等于说赛勒得低头认错。
And it would have to represent sailors just eating some humble pie.
而且这还等于承认,他之前太自信了,把话说得太满。
And to add that it would also like be an admission that like he got over his key tips, he issued a little bit too much stretch.
他确实太冒进了。
He just got too bold.
我觉得这正是市场所期待的。
And I think that's what the market wants.
但要是只卖最少的比特币,只为争取一点喘息时间,指望市场自己反弹,反而会让市场更加困惑。
But the selling the minimum amount of Bitcoin to buy himself like the minimum amount of time in the hopes that the market just goes up, will actually cause the market just to not get clarity.
赛勒还是会陷在亏损里。
Saylor will still be in the hole.
只要他的策略还在影响比特币价格,市场就会觉得:你别唬人了,我就是要逼你把比特币吐出来。
And to whatever degree that strategy is actually determining Bitcoin price, I think the market is just like I'm not I'm calling your bluff, and I'm gonna make you cough up Bitcoin.
只要你不低头认错,不拿出足够多的比特币来平息市场,比特币价格就别想涨。
And I'm not going to Bitcoin price not is not going up until you eat some humble pie and you cough up enough Bitcoin to satisfy the market.
我就是这么想的。
Like, that's kind of my attitude.
其实投资一向如此,市场更能接受坏消息,反而最怕不确定性。
Well, that's a that's a thing that's always been true with investing in general is that the market markets can handle bad news better than they can handle uncertainty.
坏消息来得越快越好,就像新上任的CEO一样。
The faster you get bad news it's like any new CEO that comes into a company.
对吧?
Right?
他们上任后第一件事是什么?
What's the first thing they do?
先把业绩搞得最差,
They just have the worst earnings ever.
把所有问题都推给前任,把坏消息一次性摊牌,然后重新开始。
Blame everything on the on the, you know, outgoing CEO and then get all the bad news out of the way and then start fresh.
对吧?
Right?
你要是老这么制造过剩预期和不确定性,这正是市场最讨厌的。
When you all you do is constantly create an overhang and uncertainty, that's what markets hate the most.
对吧?
Right?
他就是这么做的,而且很可能还会继续这么做,就像你说的,这给比特币带来了压力,也阻碍了他最需要的结果——那就是他退居幕后,让比特币价格上涨。
And that's what he has done, and and will likely continue to do, which which, like you said, is weighing on, you know, Bitcoin and probably prevents the outcome that he needs the most, which is that he is him getting out of the way and Bitcoin going higher.
不过呢,他其实还有另一个选择,一个我们还没聊过的策略,我一年前就提过:他完全可以打造一个加密货币界的伯克希尔·哈撒韦,直接用比特币去收购公司。
But I will say there is a there is another option for him and for strategy, which we haven't discussed yet, which I talked about even a year ago, is that, you know, the he could very easily create the Berkshire Hathaway of crypto and just start making acquisitions with the Bitcoin.
对吧?
Right?
如果比特币真像他说的那样是稀缺资产,而且全球有大批人也这么认为,那就有不少场景下,他可以用比特币收购公司,对方甚至愿意折价接受,就为了拿到比特币。这样一来,他就能在旗下建立起一些能产生现金流的业务,不仅能缓解债务利息压力,还能让公司整体更多元化。
If Bitcoin really is the scarce asset that he's telling everyone it is and that, you know, a a large cohort of the world thinks it is, then there would probably be scenarios where he could buy companies with the Bitcoin where the company would be willing to even take a discount to fair value in order to get the Bitcoin, in which case he can actually build some cash flow generating, entities under his umbrella that not only helps satisfy the dividends and the interest rate on the debt, but also ultimately, you know, diversify the company a little bit more.
老派的MicroStrategy多头可能会说,我们买MSTR可不是为了这个,我们就是要押注比特币的杠杆。
You know, old school micro strategy bull might say that's not why we wanna own MSTR.
但话说回来,他早就把这事儿搞成了一个资本市场对冲基金,叙事早就崩了。
We just wanna own the Bitcoin leverage, but, again, he's already ruined narrative by turning it into a capital markets hedge fund anyway.
所以到这一步,不如干脆彻底点,用你手里的比特币资源真真正正地建一家公司。
So at this point, you might as well go full on, you know, build a real company with the Bitcoin stack that you have.
你看看那些成功的案例,比如银河公司收购那些陷入困境的矿场,做得多好。
You know, you look at some of the success stories, like, look at what Galaxy has done by buying distressed mining assets.
现在银河的股价可能是全球最被低估的,就因为他们把那个濒临破产的比特币矿场,改造成了一座高性能计算和AI数据中心。
And, you know, now the Galaxy stock is probably the most undervalued stock on the planet because of the fact that they own this Bitcoin mine this this distressed Bitcoin mining facility that they turned into an HPC AI data center.
对吧?
Right?
Celsius 也是,破产的时候也这么干过。
Even the Celsius did the same thing, you know, with in bankruptcy.
对吧?
Right?
现在用比特币这一套资源,能做的事儿多着呢,完全能把这变成一家正经公司。
There's all kinds of things they can do with this Bitcoin stack now that could actually turn this into a real company.
不过说实话,我也不确定。
Again, I don't know.
我今天不觉得这事发生的概率很高,但要是我持有MSTR的股票,这正是我最终会追求的方向。
I wouldn't put a high probability on that today, but to me, if I were an MSTR shareholder, that's what I would be ultimately looking for.
我觉得并购这个选项挺有意思。
I think the MNA option's an interesting one.
你是说真的用比特币来支付,还是用普通股来收购这些公司?
And are you suggesting you'd actually pay Bitcoin, or would you acquire these companies with common equity?
我猜如果你能找到一家现金充裕的公司,你更倾向于用普通股收购吧。
Because I assume you'd try to buy them with common equity first if you could find a cash rich company.
是的。
Yeah.
也许吧。
Maybe.
我其实想的是,直接用比特币来买。
I I was thinking actually, use the Bitcoin.
对吧?
Right?
这一点,我们目前还没到那一步,但如果比特币真成了稀缺资产,而有一家公司掌握了全部比特币的百分之四到五,那就会出现一种情况:其他公司会争相抢购这些比特币,哪怕条件不太划算,也愿意用比特币来交易。
That, again, like, we're not there yet, but if Bitcoin truly becomes a scarce asset and one company owns four or 5% of it all, like, there is a world where people would, you know, companies would clamor for that Bitcoin and would might, you know, actually take a less than favorable deal in Bitcoin with Bitcoin as the asset.
不过,你说得对,股票交易的方式也依然存在。
So, know, it's but to your point, you know, doing a stock deal would be there as well.
但最终,你不可能一直是市场上唯一买比特币的人。
But ultimately, you know, that you get to a point where you just can't be the only buyer of Bitcoin in the market.
你总得想别的办法,对吧?
You have to do something else, right?
所以要么去收购其他资产,要么做点别的,或者以某种方式多元化你的业务。
So either go buy some other assets or do something else or diversify the businesses in some way, shape, or form.
而且,因为你一直是比特币的主要买家,也可能成为主要卖家,这就造成了巨大的市场压力。
And, again, you've created this massive overhang by being the Bitcoin buyer and potentially the Bitcoin seller.
得进军其他行业了。
Get into some other businesses.
利用你现有的庞大资本结构和资产负债表,去打造一个真正的实业。
Use that massive capital structure that you have and that massive balance sheet that you have to build a real business.
说到底,杰夫,迈克尔·赛勒和他的策略在构建资本结构方面确实不错,但说到买卖比特币、拿个好价格,他们简直一塌糊涂。
Kind of to your point, Jeff, Saylor and strategy are good, competent at building that capital structure, but they're they're just dog shit traders or dog shit at just like making good execution prices for for Bitcoin.
要是他们根本没这方面的天赋怎么办?
What if they just don't have the talent for that?
他们好像就擅长这一件事,别的事儿都干不好。
Like, they seem to be very good at this one thing and not very good at anything else.
嗯,我记得好像看过说他们有一千名员工。
Well, I I I did you know, I think I read somewhere they have a thousand employees.
那一千个人到底都在干些什么?
Like, what what do those a thousand employees do?
他们只是在做……
Are they just making
一部分是做软件业务,可能还涉及人工智能。
AI Some part of the software business.
对吧?
Right?
是的。
Yeah.
他们确实还有软件业务。
They still have a software business.
对吧?
Right?
我觉得他们在比特币资本市场这边有十到十五名员工。
So I think they have 10 to 15 employees on the Bitcoin capital market side.
对。
Yeah.
其余的人就在做AI社交短视频。
And and rest of them are just making AI social media videos.
说实话,我不清楚他们到底在干什么。
Like, I I don't know what they I don't know what these I don't know what they do.
但你说得对,缺乏这种专业能力,并不意味着不能培养或者收购这种能力。
But, you know, to your point, like, not having that expertise doesn't mean that you can't either develop or acquire that expertise.
对吧?
Right?
我的意思是,确实如此。
I mean Mhmm.
你得暂时以风险投资的眼光来看待这个问题。
You know, again, this is you have to put your venture hat on for a second.
对吧?
Right?
大多数风险投资人都会在职业生涯中的某个时刻说,我们其实是在押注创始人。
Most venture capital investors will say at some point in their careers, we just bet on the founder.
我们就是相信这个人。
We just bet on the guy.
我们并不完全了解他们的业务,但就是觉得这个人特别出色。
Like, we don't know you know, we just think that that, you know, guy or girl is amazing.
某种程度上,MSTR的股东,或者任何持有其资本结构的人,做的也是同样的事。
Like, in some ways or shape or form, that's what MSTR shareholders or anybody who owns any part of the capital structure they're doing.
他们是在赌西勒,觉得他能想出什么新招来。
They're betting on Saylor, and they think that he's going to come up with something.
但总有一天,他的老办法会用完,那时候他得够谦逊,就像马特之前说的,承认自己已经走不下去了。
But at some point, his playbook runs dry, and he has to be humble enough, as Matt, you know, to use the word Matt said earlier, to basically say, okay, we're now beyond what I can do.
赶紧找些真正厉害的人来接手公司其他部分的运营。
Let me go get some real talent in here to to run other parts of the business.
所以,再说一遍,我并不是说这事儿现在概率很高,但你看看推特上那么多人,用完全错误的事实拼命为MSTR辩护,真是让人无奈。
So, you know, again, I I'm not suggesting that that is a a high probability outcome today, but it is, you know, reading through cryptic Twitter and watching so many people just defend MSTR with with with just blatantly incorrect facts.
你要真想替它辩护,至少得想点有创意的理由吧。
If you're gonna defend it, you know, at least be creative with why you're defending it.
他们明明还有别的路可走,没必要非得牺牲一部分资本结构去保另一部分。
That that there are some other things they can do besides just, you know, killing one part of their capital structure to save another part.
我觉得并购的想法挺有意思的。
I think the MNA idea is a very interesting one.
但你要想想,他具体能为比特币做点什么?他搞了个量子计划,可又好像完全不把量子威胁当回事。
If you think about what he can do for Bitcoin, though, specifically, he has this quantum initiative, but it seems like he's poo pooing the quantum threat in general.
他今天在伦敦的高盛峰会上登台发言了。
He was on stage at the Goldman conference today in London.
他对这个威胁的态度有点轻描淡写。
It was somewhat dismissive of the threat.
我觉得,他真正能为这个宏观资产做的,反而是全力投入、资助量子计算领域的研发,制定比特币核心的路线图,多谈谈这事儿。
I'd actually say that might be the one thing that he could do for the macro asset is to just really lean in and fund some development there, fund some just a roadmap for Bitcoin Core, and just speak more about it.
我觉得,降低这方面的风险,反而可能比并购更直接地改善他的资产负债表,至少短期来看是这样。
I think that being de risked could actually just help his balance sheet in a way that maybe the MNA wouldn't in the short term.
所以。
So
我感觉这件事儿现在处于一种既解决了又没解决的状态——股价已经从低点反弹了17%,但离高点还是差了17%。
I kind of I kinda get the sense that this matter is simultaneously resolved and unresolved in the sense that like, the stretch is trading back up, it's up like 17% from the bottom is still about 17% off from the top.
至少说明情况没继续恶化,MSTR是跌了,但没崩。
So it's like, it's like, of it's not getting worse, at the very least MSTR is down.
不过话说回来,如果他们卖掉12.5亿美元的比特币,还能撑上26个月呢。
But hey, they've got like twenty six months of runway if they sell the 1 and a quarter billion dollars of Bitcoin.
二十六个月的缓冲期,已经算挺长了。
And so at twenty six months of runway is a decent amount of time.
所以这就像一场迟早要发生的车祸。
And so like, it'll it's a car crash in the future.
所以说,这件事既是解决了,又没真正解决。
So it's simultaneously resolved and unresolved.
总觉得这儿没个像样的了结,心里挺不踏实的。
Kind of did just feel very unsatisfied about any sort of, like, local conclusion here.
所以,我也说不好。
So, like, I don't know.
也许故事的下一页,是二十个月后我们再请你们回来,重新聊聊他们到底用了什么招数来化解这个局面。
Maybe the story is I have you guys back on in twenty months and we have this conversation all over again and see what the hell strategy that they've done to mediate this thing.
顺便说一句,很多背负巨额债务的公司都是这样。
This is the case in a lot of companies, by the way, though, that have huge debt loads.
比如iHeartMedia,按他们现在的债务水平,三年后根本不可能继续运营下去。
And so if you take a look at iHeartMedia, for instance, there's no way that business can be a going concern business three years in the future given their debt load.
所以问题就在于他们什么时候会再融资,迟早会有一个强制性的节点出现。
So it's just a matter of when are they going to re finance, and the forcing function will come at some point in the future.
我觉得真正起关键作用的,其实是那些看跌期权。
I think the puts are really what would be the forcing function here.
中间可能还有其他压力点,比如被剔除出指数之类的,但说实话,我觉得这家公司未来六个月不会破产。
There could be other interim forcing functions around getting dropped from indices, something like that, but yeah, I don't see this as this is not a company that's going bankrupt in the next six months.
那里根本不存在什么强制性压力。
There's no forcing function there.
我还想补充一点,你刚才这么一说,恰恰体现了MicroStrategy营销方式的精明与荒谬。
I'd also add that even just the way you described that shows the brilliance and the craziness of the way MicroStrategy markets itself.
你居然把还没发生的12.5亿美元比特币销售,直接算进资产负债表里当现金来用。
The fact that you just included a billion and a quarter of Bitcoin sales that haven't happened yet on their balance sheet as cash to pay daily.
你懂我的意思吧?
You know?
这跟他说‘我们有三十年的股息支付能力’没什么两样。
That's no different than him saying, we have thirty years of dividend coverage.
嗯,如果你大量抛售比特币,那确实会自动计入现金流,因为他们说过可能会这么做,而他也一直这么在做。
Well, yeah, if you sell a ton of Bitcoin, you know, you're just you're just automatically adding that because they said they might do it, which is what he's been doing.
对吧?
Right?
这整个就是一套障眼法,魔术师那一套,他就是靠这些手段让市场相信他资金充足,其实这些操作还没真正发生。
It's all sort of slight of hand slight of hand, you know, magician stuff that he's been doing, you know, just to convince the markets that that that, you know, he's covered in ways that he actually isn't until he actually does these actions.
不过我也觉得,很多人对这家公司的看法太极端了。
But I do think too a lot of people don't a lot of people are talking in extremes with this company.
你看有些研报,比如Benchmark给出500美元的目标价,可又有人断言这家公司马上就要破产归零。
Like, you know, it's gonna go you see some equity reports, like Benchmark coming out with a $500 price target, you know, and then there's someone else who says this thing's going bankrupt and going to zero.
就像马特说的,其实这里既没有特别看多的理由,也没有彻底崩盘的依据。
Like, most likely, as Matt mentioned that I said, like, there is no there's there's no huge bull case here, and there's also no bankruptcy case here.
更可能的情况是,它会像印刷厂或者黄页公司一样,慢慢衰落,持续几十年。
It's most likely just gonna be a slowly kinda melting ice cube for decades, very similar to, like, printing companies or yellow page companies.
对吧?
Right?
如果回溯十五年、二十年前,互联网刚兴起的时候,大家都说黄页、电话簿公司和印刷企业比如R.会完蛋。
If you go back, like, fifteen, twenty years when the Internet first started kinda getting going, everyone started calling for the demise of the yellow pages and the phone book companies and the printing companies like R.
R.
R.
唐纳利这些公司。
Donnelley and all that stuff.
但事实上,这些公司的债务反而是很好的投资标的,因为它们简直就是印钞机。
And instead, the debt was great instruments to own because they these these companies were just cash flow machines.
八十多岁的老人还在用电话簿,还是会去找印刷厂。
Like, 80 year olds still get phone books, you know, and they they still go to, you know, the printers.
这些生意不会一夜之间就消失。
Like, these businesses don't just go away overnight.
除非有某种巨大的外部冲击逼得企业破产,否则很少有行业会突然彻底消亡。
It's very rare to see something just go away overnight unless, again, there's some sort of massive trigger that forces a bankruptcy.
这更像是一块慢慢融化的冰块,眼下你几乎找不到什么真正的看涨理由,除非你只是想说:既然看好这家公司,干脆直接买比特币算了。
This is just gonna be a slow bleed melting ice cube where, you know, you'd be hard pressed to find a real bull case for the stock right now that isn't just, why don't you just buy Bitcoin if you're bullish on the stock?
除非他做出什么极端举动,比如我们提到的,直接砍掉股息,或者大举收购搞并购交易。
Outside of him doing something crazy like we mentioned, which is, you know, the nuclear option of killing the dividends and or, you know, becoming pretty acquisitive in some MNA scenario.
所以短期内,这事儿就只能这么干巴巴地耗着,等有什么新动静了,我们再回来聊新的变化。
So it it's just gonna be kinda dead and boring for a while until something happens, in which case you get us back on and we talk about the new things that are going on there.
市场从来不是只动一个资产。
Markets don't move one asset at a time.
今天是比特币,明天是英伟达,接着是黄金,然后是标普指数。
One day, it's Bitcoin, the next, Nvidia, then gold, and then the S and P.
但大多数交易员还是得在不同平台、不同账户、不同资金池之间来回管理自己的投资。
But most traders are still managing their portfolio across different platforms, different accounts, and different pools of capital.
BITGET 改变了这一切。
BITGET just changed that.
他们新推出的 Stocks 2.0 产品,让你可以直接用 USDT 交易证券代币,全都在你平时用的同一个 App 里完成。
Their new stocks two point o product lets you trade tokenized equities directly with USDT, all inside the same app you already use for crypto.
这可不是又一个普通的代币化股票产品。
This is not just another tokenized stock product.
Stocks 2.0 的设计聚焦于更深的流动性、更快的成交速度,以及市场最低的手续费,仅需0.04%,并且与标的股票实现一对一的收益对应。
Stocks two point o is designed around deeper liquidity, faster execution, and the lowest fees in the market at just point zero four percent and one to one economic exposure to the underlying stock.
股息、拆股以及其他公司行为都会自动反映,确保你的持仓始终与你真正想投资的资产保持一致。
Dividends, stock splits, and other corporate actions are reflected automatically, helping your position stay aligned with the asset you actually want exposure to.
一个平台,一个账户,覆盖多个市场——加密资产、股票、大宗商品等等,全部用USDT就能交易。
One platform, one account, multiple markets, crypto equities, commodities, and more, all accessible with USDT.
BITGET,更聪明的交易方式。

有个好消息要分享。
Some exciting news.
我们即将推出一档新播客,帮助大家理解加密货币的周期,以及如何应对。
We are launching a new podcast to help people figure out the crypto cycle, how to navigate it.
我认识的最厉害的加密周期投资者,叫迈克尔·纳托。
The best crypto cycle investor I know, his name is Michael Nato.
他运营着《DeFi报告》。
He runs the DEFI REPORT.
就是他,在价格暴跌10:10之前给我发了卖出提醒。
This is the guy that sent me a sell alert before the 10:10 price drop happened.
他的周期分析一直非常精准。
His cycle analysis has been absolutely on point.
我关注他已经有好几年了。
I've been following him for years.
今年我们开始每周录制一期播客。
And this year, we started recording weekly podcast episodes.
每期都会深入分析他的持仓、市场结构、入场点位,以及比特币和以太坊的合理估值,还有我们现在所处的周期阶段。
Each one, we get into his portfolio, what he's holding, the market structure, entry targets, fair market value of Bitcoin and Ether, and where we are in the cycle.
每周三都会更新新一期内容。
There's new episodes that are released every Wednesday.
每期大概三十分钟。
They're thirty minutes.
时长不长。
They're short.
内容紧凑有力。
They're punchy.
我觉得这个加密周期比以往都更难把握,不如我们一起搞清楚。
I think this crypto cycle is harder to navigate than most, so let's do it together.

Cheers to a good 2026.
当然,最有可能发生的情况就是比特币暴涨,这样一来,Sailor Sailor就得救了。
The the thing that could happen, of of course, is that Bitcoin just pumps and, you know, Sailor Sailor is saved.
我之所以难以相信这一点,是因为Saylor在推动比特币看涨情绪上占了太多风头。
The reason why I have trouble seeing that is because Sailor has taken such a large amount of the oxygen out of the room when it comes to being bullish on Bitcoin.
至少到现在为止,我们还没见过谁比Saylor更坚定地大手笔买入比特币。
At least just because we haven't had it, we don't have a larger figure than Saylor being bullish and buying Bitcoin in size.
怎么才能出现比Saylor更大的人物呢?
Like how do you how do you have sailors larger than life?
这其实正是这种策略一半的吸引力所在。
That's kind of half the appeal of strategy.
所以,除非比特币战略储备真的动用税收资金来买比特币,否则Saylor必须有个更大的人站出来买,或者得有个宏观环境、流动性条件,让其他人觉得比特币看涨,而不是只因为Saylor。
And so anything short of like, the Bitcoin strategic reserve deciding to actually take tax money and buy Bitcoin, like, sailor needs somebody bigger than him to come and buy Bitcoin or needs a macro environment or some liquidity environment for other people to say Bitcoin is bullish rather than Saylor.
Saylor一直被推到聚光灯下。
And there's been such a slimelight on Saylor.
‘共谋’这个词听起来有点负面,但他确实把比特币的叙事给占了大半。
And he's just like, co op is kind of a negative word, but he's just co opted a bit of the Bitcoin narrative.
现在一提到比特币,大家想到的就是Saylor,两者几乎成了一回事。
And now it's the sailor narrative, Bitcoin and sailor are kind of the same thing.
他真的需要有人接过大旗,继续推动比特币向前发展,好让他能松一口气,毕竟他一个人根本扛不动这一切。
And he really needs somebody else to take the torch away from him, and carry it forward and push the Bitcoin ball up the hill so he can be saved, because he clearly can't do it all of himself.
所以我对比特币的一个看空理由,甚至不是基于策略,而是因为现在整个叙事都被萨伊尔占了。
And so like one bear case I have for for bit Bitcoin, not even strategy is just that Saylor has the narrative.
比特币持有者和迈克尔·萨伊尔都需要有其他人站出来,比特币才可能真正看涨。
And Bitcoin holders and and Michael Saylor needs somebody else to kind of step in, in order for Bitcoin to be bullish.
因此,我不觉得比特币能单靠萨伊尔这个核心人物,就莫名其妙地重回历史高点。
So I don't really see Bitcoin just magically appreciating back to all time highs with Saylor also being the core figurehead.
马特,你怎么看这个说法?
Matt, what's your response to that?
我部分同意你的观点。
So I agree with part of that.
我的意思是,如果你是个大买家,确实会想清楚微策略接下来会怎么走,毕竟这关系到资金流向。
I mean, I agree that if you're a large buyer of Bitcoin, you probably would wanna have a view on what is going to happen to micro strategy before you step in just from a flows perspective.
所以在短期内,我完全认同这一点。
So in the near term, I completely agree with that.
不过,从比特币的整体宏观逻辑来看,Saylor 其实也明白这一点,对吧?
However, on just the macro thesis for Bitcoin, sailors kinda know part of that, right?
那么,比特币到底是什么?
So what is Bitcoin?
比特币的目标是成为数字黄金这一新兴资产类别中的投资标的。
Bitcoin is competing to be a venture bet on the emergence of digital gold.
它是一种非主权的资产储存方式。
It is a non sovereign store of value.
如果未来几年利率环境有利,我相信比特币会吸引越来越多的人关注,价格也很可能上涨。
If we have a interest rate regime that is favorable over the next few years, I'm sure Bitcoin will become more interesting to a lot more people, and you could definitely see it going up.
如果量子路线图切实可行,并且有明确的执行计划,很多大型投资者的疑虑就会得到解决。
If quantum roadmap is a good roadmap and there's an actual plan there, then I think a lot of the questions from the bigger allocators will be addressed.
我认为,Saylor 在推动市场结构性资金流入方面,不会像以前那样扮演核心角色。
And I don't think Saylor will be as big of a piece of that market in terms of just the structural flows that could come into this market.
不过更大的问题是,Saylor 到底在做什么?
I think the bigger question though is what is Saylor doing then?
如果比特币涨到现在的两倍、三倍,他是不是又在重复同样的套路,五年后我们又在另一个熊市里聊这个?
And so if Bitcoin is double, triple what it is right now, is he just running the same playbook again, and we're having this conversation five years from now in another bear market?
我的意思是,他到底什么时候才会停?
I mean, where does he stop?
他看起来根本不是那种会收手的人。
He doesn't seem to be the type of guy that's gonna stop.
是的。
Yeah.
你觉得他最后还是会陷进去,而且这次的陷阱会更大?
You think he just finds himself back into it just another trap even bigger this time later?
我觉得他目标是持有更多的比特币。
I mean, I think he has ambitions to own a lot more Bitcoin.
对。
Yeah.
我觉得这有点像一支球队,有个球员场外麻烦不断,但你其实不一定非得把他交易掉。
I think I think it's, you know, it's probably no similar to, a sports team where, you know, you have one player who's got all these off the field distractions, and it's like, you know, you just wanna you don't necessarily have to cut that player.
你只需要让他们安静一阵子,别再上新闻了。
You just need them to shut up for a while and get out of the press.
说实话,我觉得这对比特币来说反而是最好的结果。
Like, again, I think that's the best outcome for Bitcoin right now.
我既不是比特币的多头,也不是空头。
I'm I'm I'm neither a Bitcoin bull nor a Bitcoin bear.
实际上,我觉得现在比特币相对区块链领域其他东西来说,挺无聊的,待会儿我再细说。
I actually kinda think it's fairly boring asset now relative to a lot of things in blockchain, which I'll get into in a second.
关键是,他们只要别再掺和,别上热搜,别当焦点,让这事自然平息就好。
But, like, the you know, just just getting out of the way, getting out of the press, getting out of the story, just letting this sort of die down.
你想想,他们在毁掉了四千亿企业价值之后,终于做了一件负责任的事——把现金都堆到了资产负债表上。
You know, again, they they they they they finally did something responsible after crushing 40,000,000,000 of enterprise value, which is build up that cash value on the balance sheet.
他们完全可以彻底退居幕后,长时间别再露面。
Like, they can just get out of the way for a long time.
对吧?
Right?
一年到一年半,安静点,让比特币自己发展出一个不靠炒作的叙事,说不定最后反而对它们有利。
A year, year and a half and just sort of be quiet and let Bitcoin develop its own non sailor narrative for a while, which, you know, very well may, you know, develop into something that that helps them.
但你说得对,只要他还是焦点,是核心人物,这对比特币就没好处。而且我还想说,这背后有个讽刺的地方——比特币熊市和赛勒的熊市,恰恰发生在区块链成为当下最热门的投资领域之一的时候,跟人工智能和机器人并驾齐驱。
But, you know, to your point, while he is the main story, while he's the ringleader, it just it's it can't be good for Bitcoin, and I think on top of that, and this is what I was saying about other areas, like, the irony of this sort of Bitcoin bear market and the Saylor bear market is that in a lot of ways, blockchain is one of the hottest investment areas alongside AI and robotics right now.
大多数投资者都会说,他们想找到办法押注区块链的增长,因为 everywhere 都能看到它的身影。
Like, most investors will tell you they want to find a way to get long the growth of blockchain because they're seeing this everywhere.
问题是,区块链的增长其实发生在三个完全不同的领域。
The problem is the growth of blockchain is happening in three distinct areas.
一个是稳定币和支付,今天又有个大新闻,一群金融科技公司和银行正联手参与 O U 那个什么来着?
It's happening in stablecoins and payments, you know, even another huge announcement today about a consortium of fintech companies and banks that are getting involved in in in in in O U what is it?
OSAT,或者在别的支付轨道上推出新的稳定币,跟西联汇款、贝宝这些公司一起在稳定币和支付领域发力。
OSAT or a new stablecoin on different rails alongside, like, you know, your your your Western Unions and PayPal and all the other companies that are doing stuff in stables and payments.
这可是市场里一个巨大的增长点。
So that's a huge growth area for the market.
还有去中心化金融,这个领域也是持续向上,再就是现实资产代币化,几乎每条曲线都在往右上角冲。
DEFI, you know, another area that's just up into the right, and then RWA tokenization, which is just every chart is up into the right.
现在区块链有三个主要的增长领域,但这些跟比特币完全没关系。
There are three main areas of massive growth in blockchain right now that just don't happen to touch Bitcoin in any way, shape, or form.
对吧?
Right?
另一方面,由于比特币之外的发展实在太快,Saylor和比特币现在连参与区块链讨论都变得困难了,更别说还有他那场闹剧般的表演——这真不是好事。我觉得,不管怎样,他都得退场了,好让比特币有机会实现当初大家期待的、那种非主权但像主权资产一样的价值存储角色。
And that's sort of the other part of it is that while Saylor Bitcoin is already struggling right now to even be part of the blockchain discussion given how much is happening outside of Bitcoin and then on top of it, you've got the $Sailor clown show, like it's not good, right, and I think he has to get out of the way one way or another to give Bitcoin at least a chance to fulfill, you know, the role of that kinda, you know, non sovereign sovereign store of value that that that people wanted to be in.
曾经,它看起来是朝着那个方向发展的。
At one point, it looked like it was headed towards.
我不觉得Saylor会安静下来,或者消失。
I'm not bullish on Saylor being quiet and going away.
有些人就是喜欢当主角。
Some people just like to be the main character.
是的。
Yeah.
这确实挺难的。
It's tough.
是的。
Yeah.
他长期以来都是我们最突出、最抢戏的那个人,这个头衔非他莫属。
He's been our biggest and and most main character for a long time now so I think he holds the title for that.
是的。
Yeah.
希望你播客里永远别放《绝地战警》的音乐,Matt,尤其是提到迈克尔·塞勒的时候。
Hopefully, never have to hear the Bad Boys music on your podcast, Matt, when it comes to Michael Saylor.
我也不希望这样。
I hope not too.
我也不希望这样。
I hope not too.
杰夫,你有没有哪个价格会考虑买入Stretch?
Jeff, is there a price you would ever buy Stretch at?
这个得从两个角度来回答。
Well, I'd have to answer that in two ways.
首先,凡事都有个价格,所以答案是肯定的。
Well, first of there's a price for everything, so the answer is yes.
但我和自己掏钱买,和用我们基金的钱买,是两回事。
But, you know, there's a difference between when I put it in my personal account with my own money versus when I put it in our funds.
对。
Mhmm.
你
The you
我先说基金这边。
know, I'll start with the funds.
除非这东西涨到三四十美分,而且你认为马上就要破产了,否则我不会买。
Probably not unless this thing gets to 30 or 40¢ on the dollar and you think that there's some sort of imminent bankruptcy.
风险和回报太不成比例了——你手里这个工具,随时可能取消分红,价格直接掉六十点。
It's just the risk reward is just terrible when, you know, you literally have an instrument that at any moment they could just turn the dividend off, and it just goes down 60 points.
就算我清楚地知道四年之后他们才会这么做,顶多也就是保本而已。
So, you know, even if I had a clear four year horizon before they do that, at best, I'm breaking even.
对吧?
Right?
四年才赚48点分红,结果一停派息,立马跌50点,这太不划算了。
I'm getting, you know, 48 points over four years of dividends to watch the thing fall 50 points as soon as they cut it.
这种基金的风险收益比实在太差了。
That's just bad risk reward for a fund.
不过如果你是用自己的钱投资,愿意承担风险,那情况可能就不一样了。
Now, in your personal account where it's your own money and, you know, you take risks and whatever, maybe that's a different story.
对吧?
Right?
我上周跟团队内部聊过,其实现在价格在七十几的时候,反而是个不错的加仓时机——毕竟我们刚才说的那些诉讼和法律风险,让他短期内根本不敢停派息。
I I actually thought, you know, last week, I was telling people internally, right, you know, in the low seventies, it's actually not a bad time to add because of everything we just said, which is that given all the potential lawsuits, given all the legal risks, there's no way he's cutting the dividend anytime soon.
他必须得撑住这个局面。
He's going to have to kinda support this thing.
所以作为短期交易工具,或者四到五个月的持仓,上周六十几到七十几这个区间,其实并不算差,可以适当小仓位介入。
So as a trading instrument or as a, you know, four, five months, you know, I think in the, you know, sixties and seventies area or even low seventies last week was not a terrible place to nibble.
我对MSTR股票也会这么说。
And I I'd actually say the same thing for the MSTR stock.
如果它跌到净资产的70%到80%,那也是值得入手的区域,毕竟那里有明显的价值。
Like, if it gets to 70 or 80% of them NAV, that's the area you'd wanna buy that stock too, you know, where there's clear value there.
对。
Mhmm.
我们还看到,除了这个策略之外,还有别的东西。
We we've seen there's also beyond strategy.
还有STRiVE,它已经推出了SATA,就是S-A-T-A,跟Stretch非常相似。
There's also STRiVE, and STRiVE has has issued SATA, s a t a, which is very similar to Stretch.
本质上就是策略的一个迷你版,但规模小得多。我心里就想,如果只是一个人在做这件事,自己全权操办,那还说得通。
Basically, a carbon copy of strategies strategy, But as a much smaller carbon copy of strategy, and like over in my mind, I'm like, okay, there's one thing if there's just one guy doing this thing, and he's doing it all of himself.
但要是有第二个人也跟着做,而且这个人还说,‘哦,对啊’,那就不太一样了。
But when there's a second, like, and the second guy is like, oh, yeah.
这说明这事儿真不是偶然,我说的可不是玩笑。
This this is a real again, no pun intended.
这确实是个真正的策略,我也会自己这么做,因为任何人都能做到。
This is a real strategy and I'm gonna do this for myself too because anyone can do this.
我当时就想,说不定比特币爱好者们又要再来一次了。
And I was like, maybe Bitcoiners are just going to do it again.
他们就是能把这事儿给搞成真,人越多,彼此就越容易成功。
They're just going to mean this thing into existence and if there's of them, they all make it more successful for each other.
现在这个时候,Stretch的股价跌了17%,SATA也跌了10%。
Now in this particular moment, both Stretch is trading 17% off, like, SATA's trading 10% off.
看起来状态并不算好。
It's not necessarily looking healthy.
但我一直会想,这背后到底有没有真东西?我的意思是,这个数字资本结构,有普通股、优先股这些安排。
But I will always kind of wonder if like if there is a there there and what I mean by that is like this whole digital capital structure thing with the equity and the the preferred instrument.
这玩意儿真能做成一个长期 viable 的生意吗?
It's like, is this thing a viable long term business?
听你们俩这么说,我感觉你们觉得不行。
I'm hearing from both of you guys that it's not.
但我还是忍不住想,会不会其实这根本就是个天才的点子呢?
But I still kind of wonder if if there's a if there's just a chance out there that this is actually genius.
只要比特币继续遵循四年周期,这两个人买的比特币,早就远远超出了他们靠股权和优先工具能负担的量。
And so long as Bitcoin follows in the four year cycles, like both of these people have bought way more Bitcoin than they could have ever bought because of their, like, equity preferred instrument.
马特,你对这个怎么看?
Matt, what is your reaction to this?
我觉得,这种现象远远不止发生在比特币上。
I mean, I think you can extend that well beyond Bitcoin.
你看看我们现在背了多少债务。
Just look at how many debts we have now.
我们到底有多少?
What do we have?
三十笔债务,都在
30 debts at
还有汤姆·李,他搞了个收益率9.5%的股权优先工具。
And this and Tom Lee, he did an equity preferred instrument at 9.5% yield.
是的。
Yeah.
所以,我能理解为什么有人会推出这些东西。
And so, I mean, I get the reason for people launching these things.
首先,从个人角度看,这些项目的激励机制确实非常诱人。
First of all, there's phenomenal incentives just from a personal perspective.
而且很多这类产品还附带资产管理协议,所以我明白为什么大家会做,我也知道这是杠杆敞口,但我不禁要问:这些东西真有那么吸引人吗?
You have asset management agreements on a lot of these things too, so I get why people are doing them, and I understand that it's levered exposure, but I think there is a question there, Are these things that interesting?
除非它们捆绑了实际的运营业务,否则这些产品最终很可能看起来就像主动管理的对冲基金。
These these will end up probably looking like actively managed hedge funds unless they staple on operating businesses.
如果没有实际的运营业务,我觉得这些东西其实没什么特别的。
So absent an operating business, I just don't think these things are that interesting.
其实我觉得优先股并不是问题所在。
I actually don't think the prefers were the problem.
我觉得,像任何事情一样,不能非黑即白。
I think, like anything, it's not black and white.
关键是要适度。
It's in moderation.
赌博本身不见得是坏事。
Gambling, not necessarily a bad thing.
赌得太多,那就很糟糕了。
Gambling too much, very bad thing.
有一点债务,没什么问题。
Some debt, not a bad thing.
债务太多,那就非常危险。
Too much debt, very bad thing.
其实,持有一些优先股是有道理的。
Like, having some preferreds made sense.
问题在于规模太大了,因为这个人一向以冒险著称,总爱走钢丝。
The the problem was just the size and the scale because, again, this guy is just, you know, known for just flying too close to the sun.
他做的这些事,跟公司的现金流相比,规模实在太过离谱,根本撑不住。
Like, the size and the scale of what he did relative to the cash flows of the business were just untenable.
你刚才提到了Bitmined,对吧?
Whereas, you know, you mentioned Bitmined.
Bitmined自己发行了三亿美元的优先股,跟你是喜欢以太坊还是比特币没关系。
Bitmined just did, I think, a $300,000,000, preferred of their own independent of whether you like ETH versus Bitcoin the asset.
以太坊至少是个能产生价值的资产。
ETH is at least a productive asset.
你可以用以太坊做很多事情。
You can do things with ETH.
你可以把它质押起来。
You can stake it.
也可以借出去。
You can lend it.
实际上是有真实需求的。
There's actually some demand.
比特币就只是个宠物石头。
Bitcoin is a pet rock.
你根本拿它做不了任何事。
You can't do anything with it.
根本没人想借它。
There's no demand to borrow it.
就连那些新兴的看涨期权策略,波动率也已经被压得喘不过气了。
Even, you know, all these call overriding strategies that have come about, like, vol has just gotten crushed.
你几乎没法用比特币产生任何收益。
Like, there's almost no way to generate yield with your Bitcoin.
但以太坊就不一样了,这说明汤姆·李真能每年产生三亿美元的现金流,用来覆盖资产负债表上一小部分优先股。
With your Ether is, which means that he can actually Tom Lee can actually generate $300,000,000 a year of of real cash flows to be able to satisfy a small amount of preferreds on the balance sheet.
这些金融工具本身,你知道的,我记不清具体是从什么时候开始的,优先股和Stretch大概是在九到十八个月前出现的。
So the instruments themselves, you know, again, I don't remember exactly when they started these, preferreds and Stretch specifically, but it was somewhere in the nine to eighteen months.
他刚推出这些产品的时候,根本没人反对。
Like, nobody was up in arms when he started this.
真正让事情走向失控的,是他把规模做得太大了。
It was the size and the scale that he got to that made this, you know, completely teeter in the wrong direction.
马特,杰夫,这次对话真的让我彻底明白了眼前发生的一切。
Matt, Jeff, this has been, immensely helpful for me understanding exactly what's going on.
非常感谢你们来参加节目,帮我理清了思路,也希望给Bankless的听众们带来一些启发。
So I appreciate you guys coming on the show and just providing me some clarity and and hopefully the bankless listeners some clarity.
还有没有哪些关键点是我还没问到的?
Is there any other stone that I haven't unturned, turned over?
你们觉得还有哪些部分值得再深入聊聊?
Any other component of this conversation that you think is worth elevating here?
没有了。
No.
该说的都说了。
Think we covered it.
马特,我每周五都会听你和尼克·卡特的播客。
Matt, I listen to your podcast, every Friday, you and Nick Carter.
Bankless的听众们可能早就知道了,但你还是跟大家介绍一下你的播客吧,大家去哪儿能听到?
Listeners of Bankers probably know that by now, but, tell people about your podcast and where can they go find it.
当然。
Sure.
是的。
Yeah.
谢谢。
Thank you.
节目叫《On the Brink with Castle Island》。
It's On the Brink with Castle Island.
我们每周五更新一期。
We do an episode every Friday.
聊的是《On the Brink》。
Speaking on the Brink.
这周我们谈的是战略。
Talking about strategy this week.
杰夫,我早就一直在关注你了。
And, Jeff, I've been following you for forever now.

Man, we are some we are some industry veterans at this point.
马特,杰夫,谢谢你们来参加节目。
Matt, Jeff, thank you guys for coming on the show.
真的非常感谢。
I really appreciate it.

Good to see you guys.
太好了。
Great.
谢谢大卫,也很高兴见到你,马特。
Thanks, David, and good to see you, Matt.
Bankless的观众们,你们都懂的。
Bankless nation, you guys know the deal.
加密货币有风险,股权和优先工具也一样。
Crypto is risky, and so are equity preferred instruments.
你投进去的钱有可能亏光。
You can lose what you put in.
但不管怎样,这正是前沿领域。
But nonetheless, this is the frontier.
并不是每个人都适合,很高兴你和我们一起踏上无银行之旅。
It's not for everyone, and we are glad you're with us on the bankless journey.
非常感谢。
Thanks a lot.
