Michael Saylor Sends ‘Satoshi Bitcoin’ Message to Former NBA Star Scottie Pippen

As a seasoned researcher with a background in finance and technology, I’ve closely followed the evolving narrative surrounding Bitcoin and its community for years. Michael Saylor’s recent exchange with former NBA star Scottie Pippen on Twitter regarding Satoshi Nakamoto and Bitcoin is an intriguing development.


Michael Saylor, a well-known Bitcoin advocate and the co-founder of MicroStrategy, recently used the X platform, which is commonly referred to as Twitter, for an intriguing exchange with retired NBA legend Scottie Pippen.

The latter has recently started tweeting about cryptocurrencies, also mentioning Satoshi Nakamoto.

Saylor responds to Pippen about Bitcoin and Satoshi

In a seemingly playful and self-aggrandizing post on Twitter, basketball legend Scottie Pippen compared himself to Satoshi Nakamoto – the unknown creator of Bitcoin.

The Bitcoin community exhibited varied responses to this. Trader Bob Lukas expressed skepticism, remarking, “Which 18-year-old is trying to mislead you with this nonsense?”

The Kraken exchange’s official Twitter handle replied to Cotton’s statement with a clever retort: “That’s a daring move, Cotton. Let’s see how it unfolds.” Michael Saylor joined the conversation, referencing the enigmatic Bitcoin creator. He advised Pippen to purchase Bitcoin in Satoshi’s honor: “Satoshi would encourage you to buy #Bitcoin, Scottie.”

Satoshi would tell you to buy #Bitcoin Scottie.

Average X users poured criticism on the former NBA star for likening himself to Satoshi Nakamoto.

On the 24th of July, Pippen initially posted an intriguing query on Twitter: “Bitcoin or Ethereum?” He then pledged to disclose details about an innovative decentralized project within the next 24 hours.

Super bullish Bitcoin news expected by Samson Mow

According to previous reports, Samson Mow recently took to Twitter expressing his belief that Bitcoin-related news with significantly positive impacts is imminent, likely in the coming days. Following this development, the crypto market could experience some improvement and show signs of being more vibrant than its current state.

Mow expressed cautious optimism to the international Bitcoin community, urging them to disregard the possibility of Bitcoin’s price dropping below $70,000 again. He prefers expressing monetary values in millions, thus writing “$0.07” instead of “70,000”.

Despite reaching record-breaking heights above $66,000 in the past day, Bitcoin has since dropped nearly 4% and is now trading around $64,000 – significantly lower than its previous peak of close to $0.07 million. Over the last 24 hours, this leading digital currency experienced a noticeable decline.

As a researcher studying the cryptocurrency market, I’ve observed that Bitcoin’s value has been on a downward trend recently. Meanwhile, Mt. Gox, a prominent former cryptocurrency exchange, has continued to transfer substantial amounts of Bitcoin – approximately 48,000 BTC worth over $3.1 billion – to make compensation payments to its creditors. These transactions have caught the attention of the crypto community due to their size and resemblance to typical Mt. Gox transfers.
