Michael Saylor: Bitcoin market recovery may take up to seven years., 2026/02/24 09:32:37

The chairman of the largest corporate BTC holder, Strategy, Michael Saylor, stated that the recovery of the Bitcoin market could take between two to seven years.
According to him, this timeframe is part of the market cycle for long-term investors rather than a disaster. Saylor pointed out that Bitcoin has fallen over 45% from its peak—similar to the decline of Apple shares in 2013, which later became a profitable entry point for investors.
“The crypto market is gradually maturing. This leads to a reduction in extreme volatility. That is why Bitcoin has been unable to surpass $126,000,” Saylor emphasized.
He also highlighted the limited integration of cryptocurrencies within the banking system. Major banks still do not provide loans secured by Bitcoin, resulting in a significant amount of capital remaining illiquid without asset sales. Saylor believes that changing this practice could significantly impact the price of BTC.
Discussing quantum risks, Saylor noted that the potential threat may become relevant in about ten years. The banking sector and the internet will face substantial changes, but the community will be able to develop solutions.
In his view, Bitcoin remains a nascent technology, and the market requires time to build trust in it as a foundational financial infrastructure.
Previously, Saylor mentioned that if Bitcoin’s price continues to decline, Strategy plans to refinance its debt rather than sell digital assets.
