Thank you for this. I did not know they were a software company, I thought they were a hedge fund as well. I mean I never checked them out personally, I just heard about the bitcoin purchases and nothing more, so I assumed they were just an investment related company. Turns out they are just a software company who liked to buy as many bitcoins as possible.

I like a bitcoin zealot, they help me more than they hurt me as far as I can see, they increase the price or at least try to. I definitely agree on the skeptical part though, he is no longer the CEO but he is still the executive chairman, meaning he could remove the CEO and appoint himself anytime he wants if I am not wrong.

What's interesting is that you wake up and finding out that you have been sued thru Twitter.

For those who are interested on the official documents here are the links:

As per the documents, Saylor and his company Microstrategy has created an elaborate scheme to defraud DC of taxes amounting to $25 - 100 million. The scheme created an illusion that Saylor lives in Florida a a state without personal income tax.

And it is also take noting that Saylor that this is not the first time that he has been used for defrauding DC, there were whistleblowers who come forward and represented by Cadwalader, Wickersham & Taft, filed a lawsuit against Saylor.

And after reviewing it, the OAG decided to file it's own case against Michael Saylor and his company Microstrategy which is the co-defendant here.

It is beginning to look that way. I’m sure when investigators started sniffing around and disturbing business operations they decided to remove Saylor as a distraction. It seems like we’ve seen a lot less of him since then so maybe he’s laying low or celebrating his freedom.

Everyone is innocent until proven guilty, although the media will now crucify Saylor and along the way they will surely lash out at Bitcoin as well. I looked at MS's Twitter account and he hasn't commented on this case yet, but considering everything, I don't think he'll be overly upset.

I am quite sure of one thing, and that is that he will not escape from the US, as was the case with John McAfee and his non-payment of taxes, which eventually cost him his life.
