Michael Saylor Stresses Bitcoin Scarcity with New Testament Tweet
Major Bitcoin evangelist and co-founder of the BTC-powered company Strategy Michael Saylor has taken to his account on X (formerly well-famous as Twitter) to underscore the key feature of Bitcoin that, he believes, makes it the king of the crypto market.
He has published a tweet with a reference to the New Testament about feeding the 5,000. Besides, with the same tweet he has urged the community to go and spread the word about Bitcoin.
“Teach a man to Bitcoin”
Saylor published an AI-generated image of himself dressed as one of disciples who helped Jesus Christ when he gave five loafs of bread and two fish to the 5,000 followers who came to listen to his preaching. Saylor is dressed in a long, beige robe that drapes over his shoulders and holding a basket with fish and loafs of bread.

Blurred in the background of the picture, you can see a crowd of supposedly 5,000 Jesus’s followers. Saylor’s caption to the tweet goes “teach a man to Bitcoin.” This rephrases the biblical quote: “Give a man a fish, and you feed him for a day; teach a man to fish, and you feed him for a lifetime.” Instead of bread, he added Bitcoin to stress the ability of the world’s flagship cryptocurrency to bring prosperity to many people by providing them with long-lasting financial independence, which he believes is true.
Besides, this can also be interpreted as Saylor underscoring Bitcoin’s key feature that makes it stand out among other cryptocurrencies that followed after BTC – scarcity. Bitcoin’s cap is limited to 21 million.
