Michael Saylor Says Bitcoin Would Be Trading At $40,000 To $50,000 Without MSTR

  • On the When Shift Happens podcast, Saylor explained, "Bitcoin would have been successful without me," but argued that Strategy's involvement significantly accelerated price appreciation beyond the $10,000 to $80,000 range.
  • Strategy began accumulating Bitcoin in 2020 when prices were around $10,000, building what is now approximately 818,000 Bitcoin holdings—the world's largest corporate position.
  • To build its position, Strategy deployed $62 billion through convertible bonds and equity raises in the United States, while selling approximately $8 billion of STRC, which Saylor calls "digital credit."
  • STRC targets trading around $100 with an 11.5% monthly dividend while providing much lower volatility than Bitcoin's 40% annualized swings, offering investors tax-deferred exposure.
  • If Bitcoin holdings reach 1 trillion, Strategy aims to grow credit issuance to $200 billion to $400 billion, positioning the company to scale its low-volatility Bitcoin-backed financial infrastructure.
