In a world where Bitcoin ($BTC) is steadily gaining recognition as a revolutionary form of digital capital, Michael Saylor, Co-Founder and Executive Chairman of MicroStrategy, has revealed an ambitious vision: to transform his company into a Bitcoin Bank of choice. Disclosing MicroStrategy’s future vision,&nbsp;<a href="https://www.cryptoglobe.com/latest/2024/10/michael-saylor-reveals-microstrategys-plan-to-become-the-leading-bitcoin-bank/" target="_blank" rel="noopener nofollow">Saylor reportedly</a> provided hints on Monday about how the firm plans to alter the financial landscape in an interview with Bernstein analysts. 
MicroStrategy is the largest corporate holder of Bitcoin, holding 252,220 BTC ($15.3 billion as of September 2024). Saylor’s objective is not only increasing Bitcoin holdings of the company but to build a new trillion-dollar financial institution based upon BTC that offers various capital market products and services such as equities, convertibles, and bonds.

The company’s president, Michael Saylor, has grander plans for MicroStrategy than just becoming a Bitcoin holder. He has a dream that Bitcoin would be an integral part of the international financial system. To support his idea of Bitcoin as “the best-performing asset of the 21st century,” Saylor said that it was a good store of value compared to other assets that investors can use to hedge against inflation. 
‘It has aptly described that ‘Bitcoin is revolutionary digital capital.’ That thing is volatile, and yes, that volatility attracts investors who are seeking high returns, Saylor pointed out. His words echo MicroStrategy’s steady belief in Bitcoin, which has led the company to buy significant amounts of the asset since 2020. In Sep 2024, the total acquisition cost at MicroStrategy is estimated to have amounted to around $9.9 billion.

As Michael Saylor, who invested in Bitcoin, stated in the video, Bitcoin may go to unprecedented levels in the future. He has earlier estimated that Bitcoin might reach up to $13,000,000 per coin by 2045 and control 7% of world wealth. What that would do is take MicroStrategy from a relatively small firm to a trillion-dollar firm. The firm’s current strategy is the sale of bonds and stocks in the U.S. markets, which Saylor has stated is scalable to infinity. 
<h2 style="font-weight: 400;" id="strong-microstrategy-s-strategy-lending-to-bitcoin-not-with-bitcoin-strong">MicroStrategy’s Strategy: Lending to Bitcoin, Not with Bitcoin&nbsp;</h2> 
This is not like traditional credit establishment plans where Bitcoins are lent out while the investors retain the actual bitcoins. The company has borrowed money at very low interest rates, and then proceeded to invest in more Bitcoin. Michael Saylor has opined that this view has boosted the MicroStrategy company by realizing high returns with an average of 50% per year. 
“To lend money to people, companies, or governments is much more dangerous than to invest in bitcoins,” Saylor said during an interview. His stance has been consistent: Bitcoin is a long-term store of value, so MicroStrategy was better positioned to beat traditional banks that relied on riskier lending models by investing directly in Bitcoin.

This concentration on Bitcoin as its primary asset has placed MicroStrategy in the financial sector in a class of its own. Michael Saylor also pointed that other firms within the crypto-sphere, such as miners, and exchanges, pressurize them into using Bitcoin as their reserve asset. He said that Marathon Digital Holdings and Semler Scientific have already followed this model, and more companies are expected to do the same as Bitcoin grows in popularity. 
<h2 style="font-weight: 400;" id="strong-the-future-of-bitcoin-banking-strong">&nbsp;The Future of Bitcoin Banking&nbsp;</h2> 
There is nothing wrong with Michael Saylor vision but this has caused controversy in the media. Skepticism towards MicroStrategy’s approach stems from the fact that the firm – through risky investments in BTC – is essentially tied to the rates of the cryptocurrency. Still, Saylor did not lose faith in Bitcoin and believes that this is a large-scale bet on the cryptocurrency that the company will dominate the world market soon. 
MicroStrategy has purchased more than 7,420 bitcoins since entering the crypto space in 2020, as reported by The Block. The latest acquisition in the company was made at an average price of $61,750, and the volume was $458.2 million. The returns on bitcoin investment have been impressive, with the company currently experiencing a yield of 5.1% QTD and 17.8% YTD.

Accepted by major financial institutions, used by governments: this is Michael Saylor vision of the Bitcoin future. He believes that in the future, it will remain a popular reserve currency among private and even public sectors. His long term prediction is that Bitcoin could occupy a significant part of world’s financial capital thus revolutionizing perception of money as a society. 
 Conclusion on Michael Saylor’s Big Bet 
This is an audacious plan for Michael Saylor to turn MicroStrategy into the world’s premier Bitcoin bank. By using debt to acquire Bitcoin and concentrating on the capital markets of Bitcoin, the company is set to benefit from the Bitcoin revolution in the future. However, this pattern has its drawbacks, especially if Bitcoin prices are considered highly unpredictable. Whether MicroStrategy succeeds in its ambitious goal will depend on the cryptocurrency’s long-term performance, but one thing is certain: Saylor is determined to lead his company to achieve the best success in the field of Bitcoin banking.
