It seems I have triggered a lot of snowflakes with this thread. To be clear Microsoft is still a great company,
but that doesn't mean they are incapable of making bad decisions. It is pretty stupid and naive to think
just because a company is very large and successful means they are incapable of making bad decisions.
Just because a company is great today doesn't guarantee it will be great tomorrow.
The list of highly respected (or once highly respected) companies that have destroyed themselves over the years
because of bad decisions is endless. Far too many to list. Boeing, Tesla, Enron, Lehman Brothers, Chrysler,
Washington Mutual, Kodak to name a few.
If you think big successful companies can't make bad decisions then why are you even investing in bitcoin?
Why not just put all your money into Boeing, Microsoft, Tesla, etc. if they are perfect and can do no wrong?
Or maybe yousome really aren't into bitcoin and are just here to troll the forum?
It amazes me the amount of worship of these big companies on a bitcoin forum. Some will still praise the likes of Tesla,
Boeing, Microsoft, no matter what they do good or bad. It is very sad sheep-like or cult-like behavior.
Btw, the value of the dollar has dropped by more than 10% since Microsoft's vote against bitcoin last December
while bitcoin has increased by more than 10%, almost 20%. So that is a massive 20% to 40% decline (combined losses) in
the value of Microsoft holdings versus bitcoin in only 8 months. Too bad, so sad for them.
