Saylor Makes Case for Crypto Reserve

The post Saylor Makes Case for Crypto Reserve appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Bitcoin evangelist Michael Saylor explains how a Bitcoin reserve or crypto reserve could be in the interest of the American people. Following President Donald Trump’s election victory, a major focus for the crypto community has been his promise to launch a strategic Bitcoin stockpile… or reserve?

Speaking with CNBC Television on Monday, March 3, Strategy Chairman and Bitcoin evangelist Michael Saylor suggested that a crypto reserve, especially a Bitcoin reserve, could serve U.S. interests in at least one significant way: clearing the U.S. national debt. Saylor argued that this was possible if the U.S. purchased “up to 10%-20% of the Bitcoin network,” likely referring to 10%-20% of the asset supply, citing his projected trajectory of Bitcoin’s growth.  Specifically, the Strategy chairman expressed confidence that the asset will eventually hit a market cap of $200 trillion. “Right now we’re about $2 trillion in Bitcoin. It’s going to $20 trillion, then it’s going to $200 trillion, then it’s growing 20% a year,” he asserted. Saylor said this as he stressed that Bitcoin was not competing with the dollar but with global investments like international real estate, with capital flowing in from everywhere, including Asia, China, Russia, and Africa. The Strategy Chair compared a direct U.S. Bitcoin investment to the country’s purchase of Manhattan and Alaska. “We bought Manhattan for 60 guilders.…
