Michael Saylor’s Optimism on BTC Not New
Michael Saylor’s optimism over Bitcoin is not new but has stayed in place for a long time. In a recent interview with CNBC, he also expressed his upbeat outlook on Bitcoin. Saylor is adamant that BTC will surpass gold because of its built-in advantages and exciting future growth prospects in contrast to conventional precious metals.
He explicitly mentioned the impending April halving event as a key driver of the anticipated spike in the price of BTC. Michael Saylor explained the rationale for the halving, pointing out that it slows down the creation of new Bitcoins and is expected to restrict the natural supply from sellers, which would raise demand and drive up prices. Saylor’s comments have highlighted the growing competition between BTC and gold, indicating BTC’s ascendancy as a substitute store of value.
