MicroStrategy CEO Michael Saylor has once again ignited discussions in the crypto world with his bold forecast for Bitcoin (BTC). During a recent interview on Schwab Network’s “Market Overtime”, Saylor predicted that BTC could soar to $150,000 by the end of this year, a figure he described as MicroStrategy’s official corporate guidance. He further suggested that 2025 could mark the true dawn of institutional adoption, propelling digital assets into mainstream financial systems. Looking far ahead, Saylor projected a staggering $21 million valuation for Bitcoin within the next two decades, based on an estimated 29% annual appreciation rate over 21 years.

Saylor described Bitcoin as a “very elegant” property network, emphasizing its revolutionary capacity to securely link economic energy to individuals and corporations without centralized oversight. He characterized it as the world’s first technology that enables true asset sovereignty ownership without permission from any governing authority. Illustrating Bitcoin’s unique resilience, he noted: “If you have Bitcoin, I can kill you, but I don’t get the Bitcoin.” This striking metaphor underscores what Saylor views as Bitcoin’s unseizable and incorruptible nature in contrast to traditional financial systems.

Confronting persistent skepticism, Saylor contended that many Bitcoin critics fail to grasp its importance because they’ve never lived through the collapse of a fiat currency. He provocatively described such individuals as “Upper East Side trust fund babies… born rich in the only country in the world where the currency didn’t collapse in the last 100 years.” For the billions worldwide facing inflation or unstable national currencies, he argued, Bitcoin represents not speculation but salvation. Saylor framed BTC as “digital capital”, offering financial security and self-custody in a world increasingly defined by economic uncertainty.

With MicroStrategy now holding over 200,000 BTC, valued at billions of dollars, the company continues to be one of Bitcoin’s largest institutional holders. Saylor’s unwavering stance places him at the forefront of what he calls a multi-decade monetary revolution, where Bitcoin replaces traditional stores of value and becomes the ultimate form of digital property.
