U.Today – Michael Saylor, a vocal advocate and co-founder of business intelligence giant MicroStrategy, posted an sanguine statement about bitcoin on his Twitter account.
His tweet also intrigued the community because it included a photo of Homer Simpson, who is “Bitcoin positive.”
Michael Saylor posted his tweet as Bitcoin price continues to hover in the $64,200 zone, down from $65,800, a 3.53% decline.
Earlier, the world’s most vital digital currency recorded an incredible price raise of almost 16% between July 12 and 17 – its price increased from $ 56,880 to $ 65,910.
Mt. Gox Creditors Plan to Hold BTC
According to a tweet posted by Chinese blockchain journalist Colin Wu, in a Reddit poll, a group of holders who finally received their Bitcoin rewards from the defunct Mt. Gox exchange have shared their plans on whether they intend to sell the recovered BTC, and if so, what percentage of them.
The survey included just over 460 people, 260 Reddit users do not plan to sell their Bitcoin. Sixty-eight people plan to send 1%-25% to exchanges to sell. Eighty-eight investors will get rid of 100% of their BTC recovered from Mt. Gox.
Bitcoin maximalist and Jan3 CEO Samson Mow believes no more than 20% of the $6 billion in bitcoin sent by Mt. Gox in compensation will hit the market. The rest, he believes, will be locked away in icy wallets for long-term storage.
