Natalie Brunell sits down with Strategy's Michael Saylor at BTC Prague, just after he took heat for selling 32 Bitcoin — and for recent comments defending how he measures the company's growth and what its stock is really worth. Saylor answers the critics and short sellers head-on, explaining why "never sell your Bitcoin" is advice for everyday holders, no longer a rule for a company built to buy Bitcoin and pay out Bitcoin-backed dividends.

| DSH #2017 What if Bitcoin is not just an investment, but the next layer of global capital? In this Digital Social Hour Episode, Sean Kelly sits down with Michael Saylor at the Bitcoin Conference to talk about Bitcoin, digital capital, STRC, digital credit, AI, stablecoins, inflation, the dollar, and why he believes Bitcoin could continue growing for decades. Michael explains why he views Bitcoin as scarce digital capital, why its fixed supply makes it different from traditional assets, and how Strategy is using Bitcoin-backed financial products to create new credit instruments like STRC. The conversation also covers tax-deferred dividends, liquidity, risk-adjusted...

MicroStrategy founder Michael Saylor took the Consensus mainstage to unveil what he calls the killer app for Bitcoin: digital credit. Saylor explained how his company's STRC instrument, now the biggest and most liquid preferred stock in the world after just eight months, strips yield from Bitcoin's volatility to create an 11.5% tax-deferred return with near-zero volatility. He argued that digital credit is the missing bridge between Bitcoin and crypto, TradFi and DeFi, and that it opens the door to a new generation of yield coins that could transform the $350 billion stablecoin market and beyond. - Timecodes:<...

The economy you grew up in is ending and most people have no plan. Bitcoin pioneer Michael Saylor reveals why you have 10 years to adapt before AI rewrites everything. Michael Saylor is the founder of MicroStrategy and one of the most influential voices on money, capital and the future of value. A Wall Street outsider turned Bitcoin's most prominent corporate advocate, he is known for his sweeping frameworks on monetary debasement, technological disruption and how civilisations rise and fall - and what individuals must do to thrive inside them. He explains: •⁠ ⁠Why the global currency system is quietly making you poorer every year •⁠ ⁠⁠Why working hard is no longer the path to wealth it once was •⁠ ⁠⁠How AI and automation are about to demonetise human labour •⁠ ⁠⁠Why you have roughly 10 years to stake your claim in the new economy •⁠ ⁠⁠Why owning scarce assets is now the only real form of financial security •⁠ ⁠⁠How the coming explosion in prosperity will leave most people behind •⁠ ⁠⁠Why Bitcoin represents the highest form of capital ever created •⁠ ⁠⁠The single biggest mistake that will define who wins and loses in the next decade - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - TIMESTAMPS: 00:00:00 - Why You Feel Poorer 00:01:23 - The 7% Debasement 00:05:15 - Currency Tiers Explained 00:10:29 - Rise And Collapse 00:13:24 - Government Gets Too Big 00:18:10 - What Actually Gets Cheaper 00:22:03 - How To Preserve Wealth 00:27:04 - AI Kills Human Value 00:32:04 - The Next 10 Years 00:39:40 - What Bitcoin Actually Is 00:49:00 - Bitcoin For Everyone 00:56:01 - The Real Breakthrough 01:01:21 - Bitcoin Has Won 01:04:40 - The 10% Bank Account 01:10:00 - Risk And Reality - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - CONTACT PETE › Website – http://petermccormack.com › Feedback – https://www.petermccormack.com/contact › Email – me@petermccormack.com › Instagram – /mccormack555 › X/Twitter – https://x.com/petermccormack/ CONNECT WITH MICHAEL SAYLOR › Twitter – https://x.com/saylor › Website – https://www.strategy.com/ SPONSORS › IREN - https://www.iren.com › LEDN - https://www.ledn.io/peter › Monetary Metals - https://www.Monetary-Metals.com/McCormack - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - LISTEN / SUBSCRIBE › Apple Podcasts: https://apple.co/40ruY9K › Spotify: https://spoti.fi/3Wc94Vu › Fountain: https://bit.ly/FountainPM › YouTube: https://bit.ly/YouTube_PM › Rumble: <a href="h

Michael Saylor is the CEO of Strategy (formerly MicroStrategy), the first publicly traded company to convert a material portion of its balance sheet into bitcoin. In this conversation, we revisit the very first time Michael Saylor ever publicly talked about bitcoin — recorded in late 2020 when bitcoin was trading around $10,000. We discuss his background founding MicroStrategy at age 24, the macro conditions that led him to reject cash as a store of value, why he chose bitcoin over gold and real estate, how he acquired $425 million in bitcoin without moving the market, and why he believes bitcoin is on a path to rival or surpass gold's market cap. ======================== Consensus Miami is the largest crypto conference in the world — May 5-7, 2026 in Miami. 20,000 attendees. 72% director-level or above.

As we take a brief hiatus from releasing new episodes this week, we thought it would be interesting to revisit this episode from December 2024 with Michael Saylor. Ahead of the Trump administration officially taking office, Michael explained why he thought the year ahead would be a seminal one in the history of Bitcoin. Was he correct? You be the judge. Summary: With a new, crypto-friendly administration incoming, 2025 may be the year we see Bitcoin integrate more fully into mainstream finance in America and globally. Though volatile, and with an uncertain future that will heavily depend on how macroeconomic conditions and regulatory policies play out across the year, there's reason to believe that Bitcoin could soon be more prominent than ever. Today's guest is here to tell us why. Michael Saylor is the Executive Chairman and co-founder of business intelligence company MicroStrategy (Nasdaq: MSTR), and a leading advocate of Bitcoin. MicroStrategy considers itself to be the world's first Bitcoin Company, and under Michael's leadership have adopted a unique Bitcoin acquisition strategy with approximately $42 billion in Bitcoin held to date. In this episode, Michael describes his journey from skeptic to Bitcoin maximalist, emphasizes the importance of understanding Bitcoin as a digital capital asset, and discusses its potential to disrupt traditional valuation methodologies in finance. Highlights: Michael recommends resources for Bitcoin beginners (2:37) Why fear of progress holds us back (3:55) Michael points out the clues suggesting Bitcoin is here to stay (7:11) What USD maximalists get wrong (13:15) How we can understand the potential of Bitcoin through an engineering lens (16:25) Why valuation methodologies need to adapt to include Bitcoin (18:48) How Bitcoin outperforms traditional investments (28:09) Why supportive regulatory environment is crucial for Bitcoin's growth (30:54) Michael explains why the current capital market structure favors a select few (34:59) Why sound money is critical for societal progress (39:00) Links: Michael Saylor LinkedIn MicroStrategy Website Book: The Bitcoin Standard by Saifedean Ammous ICR LinkedIn ICR Twitter ICR Website Feedback: If you have questions about the show, or have a topic in mind you'd like discussed in future episodes, email our producer, joe@lowerstreet.co.

Dr. Jordan B. Peterson and entrepreneur Michael Saylor discuss how money, morality, and civilization break down. Saylor argues that fiat currency is not just flawed—it’s actively corrosive. He presents Bitcoin as the antidote: a form of pure digital energy, resistant to decay, inflation, and political manipulation. Through thermodynamics, theology, and history, Saylor paints a stark picture of civilizational entropy and proposes Bitcoin as the only incorruptible foundation on which a sustainable future can be built. If we don’t fix the money, he warns, everything else falls. This episode was filmed on May 30th, 2025. Unlock the ad-free experience of The Jordan B.

Youtube: https://youtu.be/0Kz0qGGQsa0 🎬 Episode Summary In this episode of the Explain Yourself podcast, crypto meme musician Lil Bubble dives into his unexpected rise as a parody artist in the cryptocurrency world. Known for creating viral crypto-themed remixes of popular songs, Lil Bubble breaks down how he took raw market sentiment and transformed it into musical comedy that resonates deeply with the trading and crypto community. With songs like “All Time Lows” and his Michael Saylor-inspired parodies, he’s found an enthusiastic global audience and racked up tens of millions of streams—all while staying true to his rough-around-the-edges production style. Lil Bubble shares how his journey began with DIY videos in a cheap space suit and evolved into live performances at elite crypto events, including Michael Saylor’s 100K New Year's Eve party. He emphasizes the power of branding through consistency, emotional connection, and humor—showing how creators can find success by being relatable, self-aware, and leveraging their unique skill stacks.

A: I was already immersed in crypto and had a background in music production. It made sense to blend the two—and it worked. Q: How did your viral Michael Saylor parody turn into a live performance at his party? A: I posted a spontaneous remix clip online, and it exploded. Saylor saw it, loved it, and personally invited me to perform at his 100K party. Q: What role does imperfection play in your content creation process? A: It’s essential. The raw, unpolished vibe actually adds humor and authenticity—people relate more when things aren’t too perfect. Q: What branding advice do you have for creators and entrepreneurs? A: Focus on consistency and emotional connection. Humor, repetition, and staying true to a clear persona build brand equity over time. Q: How do you balance being anonymous with being a brand? A: The space suit gives me anonymity and flexibility. It lets me build a character and connect with people in a universal, symbolic way. 00:00 Highlight 01:45 Intro 03:01 Creating Raw and Relatable Content 05:16 The Birth of Lil Bubble 06:40 The Power of Humor in Branding 15:15 Going Viral 19:39 Performing at Michael Saylor 100K New Year's Party 21:54 DJ Life 23:23 The Viral Spacesuit Video 30:22 Branding and Skill Stacking 37:04 Upcoming Projects and Performances 39:20 Follow Lil Bubble

My guest today is Michael Saylor , an American entrepreneur and the executive chairman and co-founder of MicroStrategy, a public software and services company that recently announced it is also a bitcoin development company. MicroStrategy is undoubtedly the pioneer in holding the company’s reserves in bitcoin. Till recently, Saylor was MicroStrategy's CEO for 33 years. He’s considered to be one of Bitcoin’s biggest advocates, helping many people on their journey into Bitcoin. This episode revolves around the complexities of power, technology, and the role of Bitcoin in today’s world. We discussed the trend of centralizing power in the hands of a few, the benefits and drawbacks of big tech systems, the role of governments, and the need for decentralization. Michael explored the nature of Bitcoin as a digital asset or property, highlighting its global appeal and advantages over physical property. He touched on the role of ETFs, on MicroStrategy’s Bitcoin standard strategy, and concluded with the observation that the road to bitcoin adoption is paved with love and patience. Insights from this episode: Bitcoin's role in the global economy is like a mycelium network, a virtuous network, connecting and benefiting everyone. ETFs play a crucial role in Bitcoin's reality by adding value, solving various problems. The spread of ETFs globally will continue, with each country likely to have its own ETF. MicroStrategy's strategy for raising capital to buy Bitcoin serves as an important case study. Spreading Bitcoin with love and patience is essential for adoption. To be honest, I had a gazillion questions for Michael, but finally I had to choose only a few, and I wish I had 3 more hours to interview him...

He discusses the role of regulations and the potential for Bitcoin to be used as capital. Saylor also emphasizes the need for clarity and courage to embrace Bitcoin as a capital asset. He shares examples of companies, like MicroStrategy, that have adopted Bitcoin as part of their capital strategy and have seen significant benefits.

Summary: 1. Michael Saylor predicts a potential 500x increase in Bitcoin's value, based on its ability to demonetize other assets like gold and equities. 2. Saylor emphasizes the continuous economic war over redistribution of wealth, driven primarily by government policy, technology, and work, with government having the most impact. 3. Bitcoin’s appeal, according to Saylor, lies in its finite supply and increased difficulty to mine, which may lead to its adoption as a superior asset to store economic energy. 4. Saylor argues that Bitcoin could offer a better return compared to traditional assets like stocks, bonds, and commodities due to less exposure to risks like management dilution, labor costs, competition, technology obsolescence, and political turmoil. 5. Bitcoin is deemed a “fighting” asset in the global economic war, representing non-political, stable money that is increasingly scarce due to difficulty adjustments in mining. 6. Bitcoin's inherent design is to appreciate indefinitely because it will require more energy to produce, setting it on a trajectory to reprice all other assets and survive inflation. 7. The call to action is to consider buying Bitcoin and properly secure its custody while avoiding single points of failure, emphasizing Bitcoin's potential for long-term value preservation. Key questions and their answers: - How does Michael Saylor justify his prediction for Bitcoin's significant rise in value? Saylor justifies it by emphasizing that Bitcoin will demonetize other assets such as gold and equities due to its advantageous properties like finite supply and reduced risk factors compared to traditional assets. - How do government policy, technology, and work contribute to the economic war, according to the transcript? Government policy is the strongest driver, shifting wealth through its powerful influence on money movement, followed by technology which advances certain sectors over others, and lastly, work, which impacts the redistribution on an individual effort level. - What are the primary reasons for Bitcoin's appeal as a store of value? Bitcoin is appealing because it has a finite supply, it is increasingly difficult to mine, and it avoids issues like dilution, labor costs, and other risks associated with traditional investments like stocks. - Why might Bitcoin offer a better return than traditional investments? It potentially offers better returns because it evades typical risks and costs associated with corporate equity, such as management dilution, labor disputes, competitive pressures, evolving technologies, and government interference. - How does the difficulty adjustment feature contribute to Bitcoin's scarcity and value? Bitcoin's difficulty adjustment ensures that the energy required to mine new bitcoins increases over time, leading to greater scarcity and potential appreciation in value. - Why is proper custody of Bitcoin important according to the transcript? Proper custody is essential to secure the asset against loss or theft, especially considering its potential to significantly rise in value and become an increasingly important economic safeguard. Core Takeaway: The core problem that Michael Saylor describes is the continuous loss of wealth through inflation and asset devaluation in a perpetual economic war. Without understanding or solving this, individuals and entities risk losing almost all economic energy over time due to depreciation of traditional assets and fiat currencies. The consequences are stark: failing to secure economic energy in a stable and appreciating asset could lead to a substantial loss of wealth, rendered ineffectual by inflation and improper investment choices. To address the problem: 1. Adopt Bitcoin as the primary store of value due to its finite supply and energy-in

Please join my mailing list here 👉 https://briankeating.com/list to win a meteorite 💥 Remastered from our interview in 2021. There is a lot of talk about how to make money with Bitcoin… But how does it actually work? What are the physics behind it? And can Bitcoin replace the US dollar? Here today to answer all of these questions and more is Michael Saylor. Michael J. Saylor is an American entrepreneur and business executive who co-founded and led MicroStrategy, which provides business intelligence, mobile software, and cloud-based services. Saylor authored the 2012 book The Mobile Wave: How Mobile Intelligence Will Change Everything. He is also the sole trustee of Saylor Academy, a provider of free online education. As of 2016, Saylor has been granted 31 patents and has 9 additional applications under review. MicroStrategy added $175 million of Bitcoin to its holdings in September 2020 and another $50 million in early December 2020. On December 11, 2020, MicroStrategy announced that it had sold $650 million in convertible senior notes, taking on debt to increase its Bitcoin holdings to over $1 billion worth. On December 21, 2020, MicroStrategy announced their total holdings, including 70,470 bitcoins purchased for $1.125 billion at an average price of $15,964 per bitcoin. Saylor, who controls 70% of MicroStrategy's shares, dismissed concerns by observers that the move is turning MicroStrategy into a Bitcoin investment firm or exchange-traded fund (ETF).
