MicroStrategy CEO <a href="https://news.todayq.com/did-microstrategy-just-send-bitcoin-to-its-all-time-high/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">Michael Saylor</a> discussed his company’s strategy around Bitcoin investments in an interview with Yahoo Finance’s Julie Hyman. As part of his ‘end game’ plan Saylor gave a detailed glimpse into the company’s long-term vision. A few days ago, it was reported that BlackRock’s Bitcoin holdings outperformed MicroStrategy’s. Following the news, MicroStrategy made new BTC purchases (probably the very next day) and moved ahead of BlackRock to become one of the largest corporate Bitcoin holders. The CEO’s ‘end game’ strategy 
Saylor stated, “Well, we think Bitcoin is the highest form of property, the apex property in the world, and it’s the best investment asset, so the end game is to acquire more Bitcoin. Whoever gets the most Bitcoin wins. There is no other end game.” That sums up MicroStrategy’s investment strategy, which prioritizes BTC accumulation over traditional assets.
Saylor vehemently opposed the idea of selling Bitcoins for a profit after exploring BTC as a unique asset class. He said, “People that use fiat currency as a store of value, there’s a name for them. We call them poor. Anybody that’s rich in the world, they own property […] The royal family of England didn’t sell all of its property in central London […] nor did the royal family of Japan, nor did the royal family in the Middle East.” According to Saylor, BTC is the digital equivalent of land or real estate as far as value retention and appreciation are concerned.&nbsp; MicroStrategy back on top
