Odaily News, Strategy Executive Chairman Michael Saylor said at the company's Q2 earnings call that while the company has previously allocated nearly "100% of its funds to Bitcoin," it may adopt a combined strategy of holding both cash and BTC going forward. He stated, "Perhaps the best way to buy the most Bitcoin is not to buy the most Bitcoin immediately."TD Cowen and Benchmark both maintained their Buy ratings on Strategy following the Q2 earnings call. The two firms believe that the core goal of the company's current management has shifted toward bringing its STRC preferred stock price back to near par value, thereby restoring its ability to function as a financing tool.TD Cowen analyst Lance Vitanza said the most important takeaway from the call was management's strong focus on STRC. Company executives repeatedly emphasized that restoring STRC to par value is the core objective, and noted that despite recent price deviations in the security, institutional adoption continues to rise.Benchmark analyst Mark Palmer holds a similar view. He pointed out that Saylor and his team spent most of the 90-minute call focused on the same goal: restoring STRC to the $99–$100 range, making it once again the primary engine for the company to raise capital and purchase Bitcoin.
According to CNBC, Apple CEO Tim Cook stated during the latest earnings conference call that Apple's hybrid AI strategy—where some AI tasks run locally on-device and complex tasks are processed via Google Cloud—is a "competitive weapon", distinct from the data center investments of tech giants like Meta, Microsoft, and Amazon, which often exceed $100 billion. Apple's capital expenditure in the second fiscal quarter was only $2.46 billion, lower than the market expectation of $3.44 billion. Cook also revealed that Apple plans to make AI a core selling point for iCloud+ subscription upgrades, offering paid expansion options for users with higher AI usage, but the specific pricing plan has not been finalized yet.

According to BeInCrypto, El Salvador's two major opposition parties have officially nominated candidates for the February 2027 presidential election: the Nationalist Republican Alliance (ARENA) nominated former legislator Maytee Iraheta, while the Farabundo Martí National Liberation Front (FMLN) nominated doctor and union leader Rafael Aguirre. Both candidates clearly oppose Bukele's Bitcoin strategy, characterizing it as a fiscal failure. However, Bukele's approval rating remains as high as 94%, and his New Ideas party has also completed nominations, holding a clear advantage for re-election. It is worth noting that El Salvador revoked Bitcoin's legal tender status in February 2025 after reaching a $1.4 billion loan agreement with the IMF, restoring the US dollar as the sole official currency, but the government still maintains the plan to purchase approximately 1 Bitcoin per day, with holdings reaching approximately 7,730 BTC as of July 27.

According to Decrypt, Strategy Executive Chairman Michael Saylor recently published a long article titled "110 Reasons BIP 110 Is a Bad Idea," comprehensively opposing the Bitcoin BIP-110 soft fork proposal. BIP-110 aims to temporarily restrict non-financial data such as Ordinals and inscriptions from being on-chain by tightening consensus rules. Supporters (including developer Luke Dashjr and the Bitcoin Knots camp) characterize it as an "anti-spam transaction" measure. Saylor raised three core objections to this: • Precedent Risk: Bitcoin cannot identify data "intent"; blocking a type of usage via consensus means will set a dangerous template for future innovations targeting privacy tools, stablecoin settlements, etc., "The restriction period is about one year, but the precedent exists permanently" • Activation Mechanism Risks: BIP-110 lowers the miner signaling threshold from 95% to 55%, and removes the proposal natural expiration option. With the current signaling rate below 1%, inconsistent execution could lead to network split • Classification Controversy: Saylor believes "spam" is not a consensus-layer concept; dislike for a certain type of usage does not equal invalidity. "Bitcoin does not need guardians of purity, but guardians of neutrality" Saylor's stance aligns with Blockstream CEO Adam Back, Casa Co-founder
Odaily Strategy Executive Chairman Michael Saylor published a 110-point article opposing the proposed Bitcoin soft fork BIP-110. BIP-110 plans to tighten Bitcoin's consensus rules within about a year, restricting the technology used for embedding arbitrary data, targeting non-financial data such as Ordinals and inscriptions. Michael Saylor stated that BIP-110 would invalidate currently valid transactions that pay fees through consensus changes, and claimed that Bitcoin cannot differentiate data intent. He believes that including a specific use case within the consensus layer restrictions would set a governance precedent. While the specific restrictions would expire in about a year, the precedent would not disappear. He also opposed the proposal's activation design, stating it lowers the miner signaling threshold from the 95% used in earlier soft forks to 55%, and removes the option that typically allows proposals to naturally expire. Data from a proposal monitoring dashboard shows current signaling support is below 1%. The mandatory signaling window for BIP-110 is scheduled to open in August, with a target activation date around September 1st. Michael Saylor's stance aligns with Blockstream CEO Adam Back, Casa's Jameson Lopp, and Bitcoin proponent Samson Mow. Opponents include developer Luke Dashjr and the Bitcoin Knots camp.
