Despite the recent downturn in the cryptocurrency market, Strategy founder and CEO Michael Saylor remains optimistic about Bitcoin’s long-term prospects. He stated that Bitcoin is expected to outperform traditional assets in the coming years, with performance projected to be two to three times that of the U.S. stock market’s S&P 500 index.
During an interview with CNBC’s Squawk Box on Tuesday, Michael Saylor said, “I believe that over the next four to eight years, Bitcoin’s performance will be twice, or even three times, that of the S&P 500.”
As Michael Saylor voiced his confidence, the crypto industry was experiencing a severe winter. Bitcoin fell below the $70,000 mark, down more than 45% from its all-time high of $126,000 set in October last year. This decline also dragged Strategy’s stock price down to $103, which has since rebounded to $133, but remains over 70% below its record high of $457.22 in July last year.
Despite the bearish market sentiment, Strategy continued to increase its holdings. Last week, it invested approximately $90 million to acquire an additional 1,142 Bitcoin, bringing its total holdings to 714,644 coins, accounting for over 3.4% of the total Bitcoin supply. However, with the recent decline in the crypto market, Strategy’s large Bitcoin position currently faces an unrealized loss of about $5.2 billion.
In response to concerns that continued low prices might force Strategy to sell Bitcoin to ease financial pressure, Michael Saylor firmly rebutted, “We will never sell our coins to cash out.”
“We will keep adding more. I expect we will buy Bitcoin every quarter, forever.”
Strategy CEO Phong Le also mentioned during the earnings call that only if Bitcoin’s price crashes by 90%, dropping to around $8,000, and remains at that level for five to six years, would it pose a material threat to the company’s ability to service its convertible bonds.
