Strategy chief executive Michael Saylor has warned that protocol mutability now represents the greatest risk to Bitcoin’s long-term value.
The comments were shared in a recent social media post that focused on growing calls for complex protocol changes.
Saylor argued that Bitcoin’s core strength rests on immutability rather than rapid technical expansion.
He cautioned that frequent or ambitious changes could dilute the asset’s role as a predictable monetary network.
Ambitious opportunists advocating protocol changes” risk weakening Bitcoin’s primary value proposition.
Michael Saylor said.
The Strategy executive appeared to direct his remarks at a faction of developers and activist Bitcoin users.
This group has increasingly pushed for upgrades designed to reshape how Bitcoin handles data and transactions.
One focal point of the debate is BIP-110, a proposal intended to sharply limit arbitrary data storage on the network.
BIP-110 was authored by the pseudonymous developer Dathon Ohm in late 2025.
The proposal is widely viewed as an extension of long-standing anti-spam positions associated with developer Luke Dashjr.
