His emphasis on &#34;counterparty risk&#34; addressed a key concern for corporate treasuries: the need to depend on other entities&#39; performance, stability, or cooperation.When combined with his earlier slides showing Microsoft&#39;s current 95% value-at-risk metric, this point becomes more powerful: Saylor is essentially arguing that Microsoft&#39;s current treasury strategy leaves them exposed to all these counterparty risks while Bitcoin offers a path to reduce that exposure significantly.Saylor goes on to outline a distinction between Bitcoin as a &#34;commodity, not a company,&#34; reinforcing his argument that, unlike Microsoft&#39;s current treasury holdings, Bitcoin&#39;s value isn&#39;t dependent on any single entity&#39;s performance or stability. This plays into broader corporate treasury trends of seeking uncorrelated assets for risk management, he said.Using the <a href="https://github.com/bitcoin-model/bitcoin_model" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">Bitcoin24 Model</a>, an open-source simulation model for Bitcoin adoption, Saylor demonstrated how Microsoft could transform its current position—approximately $3 trillion in market value with $27 billion in net cash and $70 billion in cash flow growing at 10% annually—into a substantially larger and more robust financial foundation.In October, <a href="https://cryptosnewss.com/microsoft-shareholders-to-vote-on-bitcoin-proposal/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">Microsoft</a> asked its shareholders to vote on whether it should invest in Bitcoin.&#34;Do the right thing for your customers, employees, shareholders, the country, the world, and your legacy,&#34; Saylor concluded, making a final push for what would represent one of the most significant corporate Bitcoin adoptions to date. &#34;Adopt Bitcoin.&#34;The post <a href="https://cryptosnewss.com/michael-saylor-proposes-5-trillion-bitcoin-strategy-for-microsoft/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">Michael Saylor Proposes $5 Trillion Bitcoin Strategy for Microsoft</a> appeared first on <a href="https://cryptosnewss.com/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">Cryptos Newss</a>.
