Regarding the BTC balance and all purchases and sales, I will run a separate
spreadsheet to record those. That will enable a more flexible tracking and playing
around with data than what gnucash would allow me to, and the operations are
going to be simple enough so that the serious ledger is not missed.

## Expected results
TODO: Summarize the outcomes of my little simulation engine.
## Evangelizing
Operation Saylor is a financial movement that is typically touted as suicidal
and irresponsible. Although it is indeed a very risky movement, I think that
the online community has developed a certain degree of dogmatic rejection about
leveraging to invest in BTC long term. People just mindlessly repeat "don't get
a loan to invest" without providing any thoughts to the nuances around it or
being open to discussing why is it a bad idea.
I think that, with a loan like the one I am getting (uncollateralized, no
margin call) Operation Saylor is not a stupid idea. It is indeed risky, and
there is a chance that I will lose an important chunk of money. So I would like
to spark up debates across the community to fight the rejection dogma, in the
hope that some people might actually discover that this movement suits their
own investment preferences.
To do this, I will post a monthly update on stacker.news. On every update, I
will provide a standard report on how things are going (BTC balance,
outstanding debt, money invested vs current net worth) + an additional, brief
reflection from my side. This could be about the reasoning that led me to run
Operation Saylor, comparing this strategy to a DCA, discussing the fundamentals
that make the operation sensible from a theoretical point of view, etc.
I hope it would get the same kind of traction that the Early Retirement by
Bitcoin blog would get. I feel there is something addictive about these monthly
updates with real people and real numbers and seeing how well or how bad they
are doing. It's as if you were sharing the greed and excitement with them.
