Michael Saylor’s Bullish Outlook on Bitcoin

Michael Saylor shared his optimistic outlook during a recent CNBC interview, emphasizing the scale of MicroStrategy’s operations.

“We’re making $500 million a day,” Saylor said. “I’m staring at my screen, and we’re selling dollar bills for $3, sometimes a million times a minute.”

The company’s stock performance has significantly outpaced the S&P 500 , thanks largely to its massive Bitcoin reserves.

He remarked, “I’m planning the $100,000 party,” adding that he envisions hosting it on New Year’s Eve if Bitcoin surpasses that milestone by December.
