BTC total open interest exceeds 58.2 billion! MicroStrategy's Saylor: Bitcoin is expected to reach 13 million in 2045.

MicroStrategy (Strategy) founder Michael Saylor, during an interview on May 10, once again discussed how Bitcoin (BTC) standards have become the best financial strategy for companies today. He also mentioned that by the year 2045, if one Bitcoin is worth 13 million USD, then not purchasing one now means losing out on a future value of 13 million USD. As of now, MicroStrategy has accumulated 550,000 BTC, with a total holdings value exceeding 58.2 billion USD.

Companies should no longer rely on stock buybacks; Bitcoin is the true financial upgrade.

Saylor was the first to point out that the S&P 500 index ( S&P500 ) is the opportunity cost for retail investors. Traditional finance teaches you about stock buybacks and dividends, but you are just putting the money back into the market without truly creating value.

"Buying Bitcoin with cash (BTC) is the true digital transformation." he said.

In the face of a traditional financial crisis, buying Bitcoin is like having a lifeline.

Saylor stated that currently, the trading volume of US stocks is concentrated in a few companies, but actually, there are tens of thousands of small and medium-sized listed companies in the United States that have become zombie companies. He believes that these companies can regain the attention of investors by converting their assets into Bitcoin.

He also pointed out that traditional enterprises can only wait for death when faced with economic turmoil, war, or trade shocks. If they use their profits to buy Bitcoin, even if their main business suffers, the value of their assets will still be there.

Don't pay off the mortgage or buy a sports car, use it to buy Bitcoin.

Saylor believes that for the average worker, the smartest approach is to maintain their primary job, control expenses, and maximize funds by converting them into Bitcoin. He even suggests setting a long-term mortgage of 10 to 20 years on their house and using the borrowed funds to buy Bitcoin, as mortgage loans are the cheapest source of long-term funding.

It is further pointed out that if a Bitcoin is worth 13 million US dollars in 2045, then for every Bitcoin not bought now, it means losing 13 million in the future.

MicroStrategy shareholders celebrate, claiming this Bitcoin company has saved everyone.

Saylor shared that many people have achieved financial freedom by investing in MicroStrategy (Strategy) stock (MSTR) in recent years.

"What touched me the most was that I was told that you gave me peace of mind and the ability to support my family in the future, and this gratitude is the most genuine."

Launch Bitcoin financial instruments, everything in the future can be Bitcoinized.

Saylor's latest invented financial instruments include:

Strife: Use Bitcoin for over-collateralization, annual interest of 10%, no redemption period, and perpetual debt rights, making it very suitable for retirement accounts seeking long-term fixed income.

Strike: Featuring an 8% annual interest rate and an additional 35% increase in Bitcoin equity, designed for conservative investors who want to benefit from price rises while fearing declines.

Saylor stated that countries can also issue Bitcoin-backed bonds (Bit Bonds), which can not only attract global buyers but also significantly enhance the financial autonomy of the country.

Why hasn't it reached 200,000 USD yet? Saylor said it's currently being washed.

Saylor analyzed that the recent price fluctuations are due to the exit of the previous group of investors and the entry of new investors. This includes:

Bankrupt institutions ( such as FTX) are liquidating Bitcoin held by government departments.

New buyers are gradually entering the market through ETFs and Bitcoin companies.

The market is experiencing selling pressure in the short term, but the long-term structure is strengthening.

The moment of birth for Bitcoin believers comes after the crisis.

Saylor shares his observations: "Every crisis generates a new group of believers. I bought in after the 2020 pandemic crash, and now, after experiencing the tariff war, there will still be a group of people awakening." He points out that Bitcoin has the following key characteristics:

You can trade on weekends.

Global trading available

No supply chain, tax burden, regulatory risks

is the only asset that can be leveraged highly during a crisis

Why don't mainstream media understand yet? Saylor says it is still Day 25 of the lily leaf.

Saylor compares: "It takes 30 days for a whole pond of lily pads to cover, but you can only see what's growing by the 27th day." Even though many mainstream media outlets have not fully understood what Bitcoin is yet, investors have already started to participate crazily, and Bitcoin (BTC) has already accounted for 16% of the total market capitalization.

Saylor also tweeted on 5/11 (X) implying he is going to enter the Bitcoin market again (BTC), as of now MicroStrategy:

A total of over 550,000 Bitcoins has been accumulated.

Total Holdings value exceeds 58.2 billion USD
