Michael Saylor Pushes Bitcoin Strategy to Boost U.S. Economic Leadership

MicroStrategy's Michael Saylor is advocating for a bold Bitcoin-driven strategy to position the United States as a leader in the digital economy.

Alongside this vision, MicroStrategy has expanded its Board of Directors to include prominent crypto advocates, signaling a renewed focus on digital assets.

Saylor has proposed creating a Strategic Bitcoin Reserve (SBR) as a tool to strengthen the U.S. economy, reduce national debt, and solidify the dollar’s dominance globally. He believes a robust digital asset policy could unlock trillions in value, drive demand for U.S. Treasuries, and grow the digital economy from $1 trillion to hundreds of trillions. Saylor also claims such a reserve could generate wealth ranging from $16 trillion to $81 trillion for the U.S. Treasury.

However, not everyone shares Saylor’s optimism. Critics like venture capitalist Nic Carter have raised concerns about the viability of such a plan, pointing to Bitcoin’s notorious volatility. Carter warned that relying on a fluctuating asset could destabilize markets rather than strengthen the dollar’s role globally, citing recent price drops as a key issue.
