In a world witnessing rapid financial and geopolitical fluctuations, Michael Saylor, founder and CEO of Strategy, continues to sing a different tune, betting his full confidence on Bitcoin. For him, Bitcoin is not just a digital asset, but the modern version of gold, and perhaps safer and more stable than it.
"Bitcoin is the digital capital of the modern era"
During his appearance on the Bloomberg Open Interest program, Saylor reiterated his usual vision for the future of Bitcoin, asserting that this digital asset continues to establish itself as the best means of preserving value in the 21st century.
Saylor said:
"In just the last six months, the number of companies adopting Bitcoin in their treasuries has increased from about 60 to 160 companies. Money is flowing towards it at an accelerating pace."
As Bitcoin's price approaches $121,000, Saylor sees it as new evidence of the correctness of his bet: Bitcoin is no longer an experimental alternative, but an integrated digital capital, providing a low-risk, high-return investment, and has - in his words - the ability to outperform the S&P 500 in the long term.
From theory to reality: Strategy for building a giant Bitcoin portfolio
Since Strategy entered the world of Bitcoin on August 11, 2020, with an initial investment of $250 million, the company's identity has radically changed. Today, it is among the largest entities in the world in terms of digital currency holdings.
In another statement, Saylor pointed out that "Bitcoin is not subject to geographic or customs constraints... it has no weight and no borders. It lives in cyberspace and you can send it to anyone in just a few minutes."
As of August 10, 2025, the company's Bitcoin holdings reached approximately 628,946 BTC, purchased for about $46.1 billion, which means an average purchase price of $73,288 per unit. With the current price increase, the company is realizing over $30 billion in unrealized gains.
155 additional Bitcoins in one week
And "Strategy" did not stop there, as between August 4 and 10, 2025, it purchased 155 additional Bitcoin units at an average price of $116,401 per unit, amounting to nearly $18 million, funded by the proceeds from stock sales.
Saylor's investment philosophy seems clearer than ever: every drop or price correction is an opportunity to bolster the treasury. The man sees Bitcoin as "weightless gold," a new financial tool that transcends traditional constraints.
