said<\/a> <\/strong>he now envisions a single Bitcoin changing hands for $21 million sometime in the next 21 years. Twelve months ago, on a different podium, Saylor\u2019s long-range target was $13 million by 2045. What changed? \u201cEverything,\u201d he told the crowd.<\/p>\nSince last summer, the United States has swung from regulatory friction to political embrace, Saylor argued. A White House that openly calls itself \u201cBitcoin-friendly,\u201d a proposal for a federal strategic BTC reserve and three fast-moving bills\u2014covering stablecoins, market structure and Bitcoin\u2019s legal status\u2014have created momentum few predicted. \u201cNobody had this on their bingo card a year ago,\u201d he said. Saylor credits Donald Trump\u2019s election victory for tipping Washington toward a pro-crypto stance that state legislatures are now echoing.<\/p>\n
Strategy is matching rhetoric with balance-sheet action. The business-intelligence firm added another billion dollars\u2019 worth of Bitcoin last week, lifting its stash to roughly 592,100 coins. Exactly where those coins live remains a guarded secret; Saylor still refuses to publish a proof-of-reserves report, citing security risks. His caution once spilled into skepticism about self-custody, a stance that drew heavy fire from hardcore Bitcoiners. By late 2024 he had softened, saying cold-storage wallets made sense \u201cfor those willing and able.\u201d<\/p>\n
