Michael Saylor, founder of MicroStrategy, has sparked controversy within the crypto community with his critical statements about Bitcoin owners who prefer to keep their private keys themselves due to lack of trust in the government. Saylor, in an interview with YouTuber Madison Reidy, discussed the myths and risks hindering Bitcoin adoption. In response to Reidy's question about the risks of self-custody and potential government seizure, Saylor argued that only "paranoid Bitcoin anarchists" fear seizure and claimed that gold was not seized in 1933 but turned in voluntarily. The community has reacted strongly to Saylor's remarks.
