Michael Saylor urges US government to acquire 25% of Bitcoin supply
Michael Saylor, founder of Strategy, has proposed that the US government aims to acquire 25% of Bitcoin's total supply for its Strategic Bitcoin Reserve over the next decade. He suggests programmatic daily purchases between 2025 and 2035, at which point 99% of all BTC will have been issued. Saylor has emphasized a policy of 'Never sell your Bitcoin,' predicting that by 2045, this reserve could generate over $10 trillion annually, acting as a 'perpetual source of prosperity' for Americans. The potential revenue from the reserve could be between $16 trillion and $81 trillion for the US Treasury until 2045. This proposal far exceeds earlier recommendations, such as the 1 million BTC suggested in the Bitcoin Act of July 2024. Saylor continues to accumulate Bitcoin himself, with a recent purchase bringing his firm's holdings close to 500,000 BTC.
