It will surprise approximately no one that Michael Saylor remains wildly bullish on Bitcoin {{BTC}} and the MicroStrategy executive chairman didn’t disappoint on Friday, saying he sees the world’s largest crypto’s price rising to $13 million by 2045 in his base case scenario.
Delivering a keynote address at the Bitcoin 2024 conference in Nashville, Saylor noted that at bitcoin’s current price around $65,000, it’s got a market cap of $1.3 trillion, or just 0.1% of all global wealth.
For bitcoin to get to his base case of $13 million in 2045, said Saylor, would require an annual rate of return of 29%. At that level, he continued, bitcoin would have a market cap of $280 trillion and account for 7% of global wealth.
In a bull case, Saylor said bitcoin could be worth as much as $49 million and account for 22% of global wealth; his bear case was a value of $3 million and 2% of global wealth.
Under Saylor’s leadership, business software company MicroStategy has accumulated a bitcoin stack of 226,331 tokens over the last four years that’s currently worth about $15 billion, or roughly 80% more than the cumulative purchase price.
