In a speech delivered on March 11, 2025, Michael Saylor, chairman of MicroStrategy, labeled Bitcoin a 'superpower' and urged the U.S. to secure millions of Bitcoins.

During his address at The Bitcoin Policy Institute, Saylor emphasized that Bitcoin represents a choice between 'prosperity or poverty' for American citizens.

He noted that Bitcoin currently controls 99% of power within the cryptocurrency ecosystem and is recognized by the U.S. government as legitimate digital capital.

Saylor proposed that the U.S. should aim to procure between one and four million Bitcoins over the next decade, framing this period as a digital gold rush.

He compared the urgency of Bitcoin adoption to historical projects like the Manhattan Project, asserting that it represents 'digital energy' for the next economic era.

Saylor argued that global capital is transitioning to digital networks, positioning Bitcoin as the essential unit of the future economy and a means to enhance U.S. dollar supremacy.

He referenced President Trump's acknowledgment of Bitcoin as the 'only truly decentralized cryptocurrency,' highlighting its strategic importance for national prosperity.

Saylor claimed that failing to embrace Bitcoin would allow other countries to capitalize on this opportunity, potentially undermining America's economic position.

He concluded that for America to maintain global financial dominance, it must strategically adopt Bitcoin alongside U.S. Treasuries as reliable reserve assets.

Saylor recommended the Bitcoin Act, introduced by Senator Cynthia Lummis, as a disciplined framework for the U.S. to follow in securing Bitcoin.
