Bitcoin, that capricious enfant terrible of the financial world, continues to hog the headlines, much to the chagrin of traditionalists who still fancy ledgers and besuited bankers. None articulates its dizzying dance better than the indefatigable Michael Saylor.
In a recent tête-à-tête with Coin Stories, the MicroStrategy co-founder, part philosopher, part financial pied piper, unveiled why he deems Bitcoin not mere electronic trinketry but the ultimate digital asset-reshaping credit markets with all the subtlety of a bull in a china shop-and why a spot of bearish gloom simply signals the asset’s healthy growth spurt. Huzzah! 🎩
Steel yourself and read onward, curious reader.
Bitcoin as Digital Capital and Credit
“Bitcoin is going up faster than the S&P forever,” Saylor proclaimed, with the verve of a prophet who’s misplaced his crystal ball but insists he knows the future nonetheless.
He dubs Bitcoin “digital capital,” chiefly because it’s galloping ahead of the S&P 500, boasting a forecasted annual growth of 29% for the next two decades or so-practically an eternity in finance-speak, and quite the perpetual motion machine.
Unlike dreary old bonds, Bitcoin-backed credit flaunts higher yields, longer durations, and more safety cushions than a debutante’s boudoir-5 to 10 times over-collateralization, no less. By issuing such enchanted credit, Bitcoin morphs into a yield-producing contraption with cash flow aplenty. Gadzooks!
This miracle, one might suppose, turbocharges equity returns and lures capital to the Bitcoin ecosystem as moths flit to a particularly flashy porch light, thereby fortifying the entire network.
Why Is Strategy Not in the S&P 500 Yet?
Despite leading the charge in corporate Bitcoin adoption-like a noble knight to the blockchain realm-Strategy remains conspicuously absent from the S&P 500’s exclusive salon. Saylor, with a sigh, explained that one must prove profitability over time, and then endure the glacial slog of approval. Patience, dear investor, patience.
He added with resigned gravitas that Bitcoin Treasury companies are a newfangled species entirely, unlike the well-mannered Coinbase or Robinhood, who’ve already earned their entrée. Such novelty, naturally, slows the gatekeepers’ nod, as they squint suspiciously at these digital ne’er-do-wells.
Entering the Digital Gold Rush
The S&P has at least window-shopped digital assets, admitting Coinbase and Robinhood to its hallowed ranks. However, Bitcoin Treasury companies remain strange new comers, much like the rank neophytes of yore who first struck oil. Saylor cheerfully likens it to the digital gold rush spanning 2025 to 2035-decades of feverish prospecting, calamities, and a fair share of blistering fortunes. ⛏️💰
“There’s going to be a lot of different business models, a lot of different products created and a lot of different companies launched. There’ll be a lot of mistakes made and a lot of fortunes created,” he opined, as if announcing the grandest reality show never filmed.
Why Bitcoin Feels Bearish Right Now
At present, Bitcoin’s market sentiment is gloomier than a London fog. Saylor, ever the optimist, explains why this melancholy is less doom and more the calm before the proverbial storm-or spring, or whatever meteorological metaphor you fancy.
Bitcoin likes its cycles: rapid ascent, retreat to consolidate, and then rinse and repeat. Such sideways meandering tries the patience of many. Yet, in the past year alone, Bitcoin has nearly doubled its value-99%, to please the pedants.
Curiously, much of the recent selling stems from long-term holders, those “Bitcoin rich but cash poor” souls who reluctantly part with small amounts to cover expenses and hedge risk. One could say they’re like aristocrats auctioning off silver spoons, bit by bit.
As volatility subsides and the market enters a duller phase, Bitcoin turns “boring,” eliciting yawns and tentative bearishness. But Saylor insists such placidity is merely the asset’s puberty-a natural, albeit tedious, stage in its journey to worldly maturity. And so, we hold our breaths and clutch our ledgers. 📉😴
