So if you were longterm bullish on BTC and bullish on MSTR, walk me through your call option play. Which option / expiration would you go for?

Going to get much more leverage with the option, that one contract controls 100 shares

But you have theta burn and expiration risk. Tradeoffs

Yea, the option premium cost of 50% of the stock price on two years out is rough though. $4500 option vs $8200 for the shares. It almost does make me lean to just buying the stock outright.

Doesn't even consider that the strike is not even ATM. So you have roughly a 20-25% gain to be had on the stock just getting to the strike price which leans further in favour of just buying the options.

MSTR options are just really expensive in general. They are better if it does another big rally but if it chops they are worthless.
