MicroStrategy Premium Reflects Levered Bitcoin Exposure, Not Free Lunch
I read Saylor's four reasons why MSTR trades at a premium to Bitcoin NAV and find them plausible: scarcity of free float, corporate optionality, tax and capital structure advantages, and investor demand for a regulated equity way to own Bitcoin. I agree these factors can support a structural premium, at least while Bitcoin adoption and institutional interest remain strong.
That said, the premium is a double-edged sword — it can compress quickly if sentiment shifts, Bitcoin corrects, or capital-markets dynamics change. I treat MSTR as a highly leveraged way to gain Bitcoin exposure, not a pure fundamental equity play.
