The Executive Chairman of Strategy on Thursday shared a photo on X highlighting his engagement with Justice. The photo features Saylor alongside Strategy CEO Phong Le, with the group posing alongside the senator’s famous bulldog, Babydog.
In his post, Saylor praised the West Virginia senator for advocating for market neutrality and championing the digital asset industry during recent discussions with MSCI.
A strong supporter of Bitcoin, Justice cosponsored the BITCOIN Act, introduced by Senator Cynthia Lummis, to create a Strategic Bitcoin Reserve. He also advocates for regulatory clarity that shields consumers from fraud while fostering innovation without excessive federal control.
