Michael Saylor Proposes a Bitcoin Strategy for the U.S. Government to Acquire a Dominant Portion of the Total Supply by 2035

Michael Saylor, the founder of Strategy, has put forward a bold proposal for the U.S. government to acquire a significant portion of Bitcoin's total supply by 2035.

Michael Saylor, the founder of Strategy, presented an interesting proposal at the White House Crypto Summit: he suggests that the U.S. government should systematically acquire a portion of Bitcoin’s total supply with the goal of owning 25% by 2035.

Saylor's vision is to have the government purchase between 5% and 25% of Bitcoin’s circulating supply on a daily basis for the next 10 years. By 2035, when nearly all of Bitcoin’s 21 million supply is expected to be in circulation, the U.S. would have secured a dominant stake of approximately 5.25 million BTC.

According to Saylor's estimations, this strategy would not only safeguard national financial stability but also potentially generate between $16 trillion and $81 trillion by 2045. This massive valuation could significantly reduce the national debt and provide economic leverage in global markets.

At the White House Crypto Summit, Saylor also urged Donald Trump and world cryptocurrency leaders to implement a long-term Bitcoin strategy. He advised a “Never sell your Bitcoin” policy, positioning the cryptocurrency as digital gold. Saylor's suggestion comes when institutional demand for Bitcoin is on the rise and nations are discussing how to integrate digital assets into their financial systems.

If the U.S. government were to enact Saylor's plan, it would easily surpass Senator Cynthia Lummis’s proposal to keep 1 million BTC in reserve as a national asset. The action would not only set the U.S. apart as the biggest state holder of Bitcoin but also make its impact felt on global cryptocurrency markets.

Although Saylor’s suggestion is still a long-term dream, the U.S. government has already begun to move in the direction of building up Bitcoin. Trump recently signed an executive order to create a Strategic Bitcoin Reserve. The reserve will initially be funded through cryptocurrency that has been seized in criminal proceedings, with further purchases planned in the future.

The action has received both approval and criticism. Some financial analysts see this move as visionary, helping the U.S. hedge against conventional economic risks. However, others warn that over-governmental control of Bitcoin may affect its decentralization and influence market dynamics.

Aside from his call for government Bitcoin hoarding, Saylor’s firm, Strategy, is also continuing to add to its position. The company recently bought another $2 billion in Bitcoin, taking its position to almost 500,000 BTC. This positions Strategy among the largest institutional Bitcoin holders, further affirming Saylor’s confidence in the long-term worth of Bitcoin.

Saylor’s plan is a bold one and it remains to be seen whether it will come to pass. However, it is a testament to the growing influence of Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies in the U.S. and across the world.
