In a striking proposal, MicroStrategy chair Michael Saylor urged Microsoft to consider a radical pivot into Bitcoin, claiming it could transform the tech giant’s financial future. Speaking to Microsoft’s board, Saylor <a href="https://assets.contentstack.io/v3/assets/bltdef7a3f3c28ddd84/blte51fcf2366a51c01/674cc6bd8e3d0356621c637b/Saylor_MSFT_Presentation_Final_Dec_2024.pdf" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">delivered</a> a fast-paced, three-minute pitch supported by a 44-slide deck, laying out his vision of Bitcoin as the next major technological wave.
Whether Microsoft will heed Saylor’s proposal remains to be seen, but the pitch underscores Bitcoin’s growing influence on corporate strategy discussions.

Saylor’s <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cH2t6VOdgkE" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">pitch</a> focused on the immense value he believes Bitcoin could unlock for Microsoft. He suggested the company redirect its cash flow, dividend payouts, debt, and stock buybacks into acquiring Bitcoin. By doing so, he projected Microsoft’s share price could increase by $584 over the next decade, assuming Bitcoin reaches $1.7 million per coin by 2034.
The boldest claim in his presentation was that Microsoft could boost its market cap by a staggering $4.9 trillion, propelling the company far beyond its current $3.18 trillion valuation. Saylor argued that Bitcoin offers unparalleled growth potential, saying, “Microsoft can’t afford to miss the next technology wave, and Bitcoin is that wave.”
He further likened Bitcoin to a high-growth business available at an unbeatable valuation, stating its strategic advantage over traditional financial assets like bonds or stock buybacks. “What if you could buy a $100 billion company growing faster than Microsoft for one times revenue?” Saylor asked, underscoring Bitcoin’s perceived value.

Saylor’s confidence in Bitcoin comes amid a surge in its value, which has climbed 120% this year to approach $100,000. His own company, <a href="https://thecoinrise.com/microstrategy-bitcoin-buying-spree-3-year-plan-may-end-in-just-4-months/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">MicroStrategy, has been a pioneer in corporate Bitcoin adoption</a>, accumulating 386,700 BTC since 2020 at a cost of $21.9 billion. With Bitcoin now trading at $97,200, MicroStrategy’s holdings are worth nearly $37.6 billion, pushing its stock to new highs.
The timing of Saylor’s pitch aligns with growing public and political support for cryptocurrency. He pointed to <a href="https://thecoinrise.com/trumps-leadership-signals-a-bullish-future-for-blockchain-gaming-sky-mavis-co-founder/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">pro-crypto statements from incoming U.S. President Donald Trump</a> and the introduction of Bitcoin investment products by leading Wall Street firms.
Saylor concluded his pitch with a call to action, urging Microsoft to invest $100 billion annually in Bitcoin. “It’s time for Microsoft to evaluate its Bitcoin strategic options,” he said, emphasizing the potential benefits for shareholders and the broader financial ecosystem.
