The post Will Microsoft Buy Bitcoin Following MicroStrategy? Michael Saylor’s Bold Prediction appeared first on Coinpedia Fintech News MicroStrategy, with its impressive BTC holding of 386,700 BTC, worth $37,335,320,418, is currently the top public company in terms of Bitcoin holdings. Recent developments indicate that the company is now very keen to encourage other companies to adopt Bitcoin. Recently, in a sensational 3-minute presentation, MicroStrategy former CEO Michael Saylor explained why top companies like Microsoft can no longer ignore Bitcoin, and even advised the Redmond-based American multinational technology conglomerate to consider exploring MicroStrategy’s Bitcoin strategy. Here is everything you should know about Saylor’s extraordinary presentation. Saylor About Superiority of Digital Assets Saylor initially explained how global wealth is distributed between assets that provide utility and others that provide capital. He also discussed in detail how risky it is to invest in traditional assets. Presenting digital capital as the best strategy to avoid the threat of risk, he stated that this class of capital is far superior to physical capital. Projecting the emergence of the digital capital sector as a revolutionary advance in the area of capital preservation, he mentioned investors’ growing interest, and its newly received political and economic backing. Bitcoin as the Future of Technology Highlighting Bitcoin as the greatest digital transformation of the 21st century, he described how it has outperformed MicroSoft over the last four years. In the last four years, Bitcoin has seen a growth of 402.005%, while MicroSoft has surged by just 96.71%. Pointing at the charts, like the annualised asset performance chart, showcasing the exceptional performance of Bitcoin over others, Saylor claimed that it is more sensible for MicroSoft to invest in the largest cryptocurrency than to pursue stocks and bonds. Risks of Bonds v.s. Bitcoin Emphasising the capability of Bitcoin to minimise the element of risk, and warning how bonds undermine liquidity, Saylor projected investing in BTC as the only method before MicroSoft to achieve exceptional success. Public and Political Support for Bitcoin Saylor mentioned the growing public support for the Bitcoin market. Highlighting Donald Trump’s recent statement advising investors not to sell Bitcoin, he noted the recent shifts in the political landscape in favour of BTC. Saylor’s Call to Action: Embrace Bitcoin Pointed out how Microsoft has amplified the risks for its shareholders by investing over $200B in the last five years, he explained why the company urgently needs an asset like Bitcoin with no counterparty risk. Advising MicroSoft to convert their cash flows, dividends, buybacks and debts into Bitcoin, Saylor explained how the company could add hundreds of dollars to its value and eliminate risk. Saylor even invited MicroSoft to go through MicrosStrategy’s open source Bitcoin investment model. Finally, MicroStrategy’s former CEO strongly advised MicroSoft to consider investing in Bitcoin, indirectly emphasising it as a move necessary for the general good of the world. In conclusion, Michael Saylor’s call to MicroSoft emphasises the immense potential of Bitcoin as a strategic digital asset.
