30-4-2025 – Strategy’s executive chairman Michael Saylor has drawn an intriguing comparison between Bitcoin and Newtonian principles, suggesting a deterministic future for digital finance.
The tech mogul’s latest social media musings, accompanied by an AI-rendered portrait featuring him peering through an astrolabe, present Bitcoin as operating on universal and predictable principles akin to Newton’s fundamental laws of physics.
His provocative assertion of Bitcoin as a “Newtonian network” appears to suggest an inevitability about cryptocurrency’s role in reshaping global finance, much like the immutable laws of classical mechanics govern physical reality.
This celestial comparison follows Saylor’s earlier biblical-themed engagement with his followers, where he appeared in messianic garb, complete with bread and fish, offering a contemporary spin on the New Testament’s feeding of the multitudes. His adaptation of the timeless fishing parable to incorporate Bitcoin reflects his unwavering conviction in the cryptocurrency’s transformative potential.
