TLDR

  • Michael Saylor claims short sellers are using paid bot networks to spread criticism about MicroStrategy online
  • MicroStrategy stock hit a five-month low of $323 despite Bitcoin only dropping 8% from recent highs
  • Short seller Jim Chanos dismissed Saylor’s bot claims and called them serious allegations without evidence
  • MicroStrategy added 7,714 BTC in August, bringing total holdings to 636,505 Bitcoin worth about $46.95 billion
  • Chanos compares MicroStrategy’s Bitcoin treasury model to the speculative 2021 SPAC boom

MicroStrategy Executive Chairman Michael Saylor has accused short sellers of orchestrating bot attacks against his company’s stock. He claims coordinated networks of fake accounts are spreading negative sentiment about the Bitcoin treasury company.

Speaking on a podcast with Natalie Brunell, Saylor alleged that artificial criticism is targeting MicroStrategy online. He said a short seller paid a digital marketing firm to create bot accounts that post negative content about the company.

The allegations come as MicroStrategy stock trades near five-month lows. The shares fell to $323 last week despite Bitcoin only declining 8% from its recent peak.

MicroStrategy has become the largest corporate Bitcoin holder under Saylor’s leadership. The company now owns 636,505 Bitcoin purchased for approximately $46.95 billion at an average price of $73,765 per coin.

Short Seller Pushes Back on Bot Claims

Veteran short seller Jim Chanos rejected Saylor’s accusations and demanded evidence. Chanos called the bot allegations “pretty serious” statements presented as facts without proof.

Chanos previously exposed the Enron accounting scandal in 2001. He has compared MicroStrategy’s business model to the speculative excesses of the 2021 SPAC market boom.

The short seller has repeatedly criticized MicroStrategy’s strategy of issuing Bitcoin-backed securities to buy more cryptocurrency. He calls this approach “complete financial gibberish” and warns investors about the company’s valuation methods.

Company Continues Bitcoin Buying Strategy

MicroStrategy added 7,714 Bitcoin during August through multiple smaller purchases. This was down from 31,466 Bitcoin acquired in July as the company maintained its accumulation strategy.

The latest purchase involved 4,048 Bitcoin for $449.3 million between August 25 and this week. The company paid an average price of $110,981 per coin for these holdings.

Bitcoin briefly reached $113,000 before sliding below $108,000 during the recent buying period. MicroStrategy’s total Bitcoin position is now valued at around $69 billion at current prices.

Saylor’s personal wealth has reached $7.37 billion according to Bloomberg’s Billionaire Index. Most of his fortune comes from his MicroStrategy equity stake worth approximately $6.72 billion.

The company trades at a premium to its Bitcoin holdings as investors bet on future cryptocurrency appreciation.

Is Doge Losing Steam As Traders Choose Pepeto For The Best Crypto Investment?

Is Doge Losing Steam As Traders Choose Pepeto For The Best Crypto Investment?

The post Is Doge Losing Steam As Traders Choose Pepeto For The Best Crypto Investment? appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Crypto News 17 September 2025 | 17:39 Is dogecoin really fading? As traders hunt the best crypto to buy now and weigh 2025 picks, Dogecoin (DOGE) still owns the meme coin spotlight, yet upside looks capped, today’s Dogecoin price prediction says as much. Attention is shifting to projects that blend culture with real on-chain tools. Buyers searching “best crypto to buy now” want shipped products, audits, and transparent tokenomics. That frames the true matchup: dogecoin vs. Pepeto. Enter Pepeto (PEPETO), an Ethereum-based memecoin with working rails: PepetoSwap, a zero-fee DEX, plus Pepeto Bridge for smooth cross-chain moves. By fusing story with tools people can use now, and speaking directly to crypto presale 2025 demand, Pepeto puts utility, clarity, and distribution in front. In a market where legacy meme coin leaders risk drifting on sentiment, Pepeto’s execution gives it a real seat in the “best crypto to buy now” debate. First, a quick look at why dogecoin may be losing altitude. Dogecoin Price Prediction: Is Doge Really Fading? Remember when dogecoin made crypto feel simple? In 2013, DOGE turned a meme into money and a loose forum into a movement. A decade on, the nonstop momentum has cooled; the backdrop is different, and the market is far more selective. With DOGE circling ~$0.268, the tape reads bearish-to-neutral for the next few weeks: hold the $0.26 shelf on daily closes and expect choppy range-trading toward $0.29–$0.30 where rallies keep stalling; lose $0.26 decisively and momentum often bleeds into $0.245 with risk of a deeper probe toward $0.22–$0.21; reclaim $0.30 on a clean daily close and the downside bias is likely neutralized, opening room for a squeeze into the low-$0.30s. Source: CoinMarketcap / TradingView Beyond the dogecoin price prediction, DOGE still centers on payments and lacks native smart contracts; ZK-proof verification is proposed,…

Botanix launches stBTC to deliver Bitcoin-native yield

Botanix launches stBTC to deliver Bitcoin-native yield

The post Botanix launches stBTC to deliver Bitcoin-native yield appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Botanix Labs has launched stBTC, a liquid staking token designed to turn Bitcoin into a yield-bearing asset by redistributing network gas fees directly to users. The protocol will begin yield accrual later this week, with its Genesis Vault scheduled to open on Sept. 25, capped at 50 BTC. The initiative marks one of the first attempts to generate Bitcoin-native yield without relying on inflationary token models or centralized custodians. stBTC works by allowing users to deposit Bitcoin into Botanix’s permissionless smart contract, receiving stBTC tokens that represent their share of the staking vault. As transactions occur, 50% of Botanix network gas fees, paid in BTC, flow back to stBTC holders. Over time, the value of stBTC increases relative to BTC, enabling users to redeem their original deposit plus yield. Botanix estimates early returns could reach 20–50% annually before stabilizing around 6–8%, a level similar to Ethereum staking but fully denominated in Bitcoin. Botanix says that security audits have been completed by Spearbit and Sigma Prime, and the protocol is built on the EIP-4626 vault standard, which also underpins Ethereum-based staking products. The company’s Spiderchain architecture, operated by 16 independent entities including Galaxy, Alchemy, and Fireblocks, secures the network. If adoption grows, Botanix argues the system could make Bitcoin a productive, composable asset for decentralized finance, while reinforcing network consensus. This is a developing story.

Fed Decides On Interest Rates Today—Here’s What To Watch For

Fed Decides On Interest Rates Today—Here’s What To Watch For

The post Fed Decides On Interest Rates Today—Here’s What To Watch For appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Topline The Federal Reserve on Wednesday will conclude a two-day policymaking meeting and release a decision on whether to lower interest rates—following months of pressure and criticism from President Donald Trump—and potentially signal whether additional cuts are on the way. President Donald Trump has urged the central bank to “CUT INTEREST RATES, NOW, AND BIGGER” than they might plan to. Getty Images Key Facts The central bank is poised to cut interest rates by at least a quarter-point, down from the 4.25% to 4.5% range where they have been held since December to between 4% and 4.25%, as Wall Street has placed 100% odds of a rate cut, according to CME’s FedWatch, with higher odds (94%) on a quarter-point cut than a half-point (6%) reduction. Fed governors Christopher Waller and Michelle Bowman, both Trump appointees, voted in July for a quarter-point reduction to rates, and they may dissent again in favor of a large cut alongside Stephen Miran, Trump’s Council of Economic Advisers’ chair, who was sworn in at the meeting’s start on Tuesday. It’s unclear whether other policymakers, including Kansas City Fed President Jeffrey Schmid and St. Louis Fed President Alberto Musalem, will favor larger cuts or opt for no reduction. Fed Chair Jerome Powell said in his Jackson Hole, Wyoming, address last month the central bank would likely consider a looser monetary policy, noting the “shifting balance of risks” on the U.S. economy “may warrant adjusting our policy stance.” David Mericle, an economist for Goldman Sachs, wrote in a note the “key question” for the Fed’s meeting is whether policymakers signal “this is likely the first in a series of consecutive cuts” as the central bank is anticipated to “acknowledge the softening in the labor market,” though they may not “nod to an October cut.” Mericle said he…
