Meanwhile, MicroStrategy co-founder Michael Saylor, one of the staunchest Bitcoin supporters, recently <a href="https://x.com/saylor/status/1820835779548967331" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">compared</a> Bitcoin to air and water:&nbsp;
"Traditional finance operates 19% of the time. Capital, like air &amp; water, should be available 100% of the time. Bitcoin is available to everyone, everywhere, all the time," Saylor wrote in a social media post.&nbsp;
During his recent CNBC interview, Saylor stressed that Bitcoin "represents" the 21st century.&nbsp;&nbsp;
The billionaire believes that millennials should question why they are stuck with traditional finance, which is not efficient enough.&nbsp;
"If we did this to your food, your water, your air, it would be considered a cruel and unusual punishment," Saylor added.&nbsp;

During the interview, <a href="https://u.today/michael-saylor-breaks-silence-on-bitcoin-returning-above-63000" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">Saylor</a> also strongly hinted that MicroStrategy was readying to buy more Bitcoin. He stated that the company would continue to raise more capital that would make such further purchases possible.&nbsp;
Saylor has stated that his company's shareholders want more Bitcoin per share. "They think that if we can get more Bitcoin per share, that's creating shareholder value."
He has added that the company will continue generating more Bitcoin per share in "any way it possibly can."
