As readership in corporate media dwindles and more people turn to alternative sources on the web, legacy publications like The Economist will face numerous obstacles to growth in the next five years. The Rothschilds are well known for their "uncanny" ability to jump ship on bad investments before a greater plunge. It would appear that The Economist's long relationship with the family is no longer enough to keep them interested.

How much do you think they'd sell it for? 0.1 BTC? I can't see it being worth much more than that.

Currently the article says they target ~3.8k BTC.
But this is easy. Saylor gets that in an hour without sucking a single pipi, so all you need is pitch: the stonk treasury. You see, fiat will only be worth less over time due to the printer. But stonks are productive: you sell subscriptions and pay-per-view to AI agents, it is not just some idle reserve, it's better.
So you go to zhe bank - say Deutsche, as they sure love lending out moneys as they do it to Trump all the time - and you borrow 3.8k BTC in fiat at a rate lower than the printer. You then buy the stonks from it. The stonks will go up in fiat value and the fiat loan will diminish in stonk value. Super easy. Ask any treasury expert.

Talking about those rats, I always wonder if they will learn how to manage their own private keys, they can't delegate that much. What do you think about that?
