The post Strategy CEO says only a decades-long slump would force them to sell Bitcoin appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com.

Strategy CEO Phong Le said on Friday that the company would only consider selling Bitcoin in the event of a severe liquidity crunch. He also noted that only a decades-long cycle would force them to sell. “We would sell if we got to the point where we did not have liquidity, and we didn’t have access to US dollars, and we couldn’t sell Bitcoin derivatives,” Le said, speaking in an interview with CNBC’s ‘Power Lunch.’ “But like I’ve said, that’s 2065 until we get there.” “I don’t know that I’ll be doing this in 2065,” Le added. “Maybe at that point we might have to sell Bitcoin if we have a sustained 40-year-down cycle.” Addressing concerns about Strategy’s liquidity, the CEO called them “FUD.” Le said Strategy secured $1.4 billion in only eight and a half days amid market chatter that it might struggle to meet its dividend commitments.
