Michael Saylor, executive chairman and co-founder of MicroStrategy, stated that there is no immediate intention to sell any of his Bitcoin during an interview with Bloomberg’s Katie Greifeld on Tuesday.
Saylor remarked that the approval of spot Bitcoin ETFs represents a rising tide that will benefit all participants, a metaphor suggesting that market improvements will positively impact everyone involved.
“This is a rising tide, it’s gonna lift all boats”
“When you observe the impact of spot ETFs, they are enabling the digital transformation of capital, with hundreds of millions of dollars transitioning daily from the traditional analogue ecosystem into the digital economy,” Saylor added.
“I plan to be buying at the peak indefinitely,” he stated, adding, “Bitcoin is the exit strategy,” Saylor informed Bloomberg.
Pent-up Demand for Bitcoin ETFs
The MicroStrategy chairman has been active in the media and was recently quoted noting that there is over a decade of pent-up demand for Bitcoin exchange-traded funds during an interview with CNBC.

“There’s a decade of pent-up demand; people have been anticipating these ETFs, and at last, mainstream investors can access Bitcoin, which I believe is fueling the influx of capital into this asset class,” Saylor expressed.
The MicroStrategy chairman addressed the current state of the cryptocurrency sector, the introduction of Bitcoin ETFs, Bitcoin’s rising valuation, and future initiatives.
In the interview, Saylor also indicated that MicroStrategy will be rebranding itself as a Bitcoin development firm. He noted that this rebranding was a logical step due to the company’s achievements in its Bitcoin strategy and its unique position as the largest publicly traded holder of Bitcoin globally.
Saylor emphasized plans to create software, generate cash flow, and utilize capital markets to acquire more Bitcoin for shareholders while fostering the growth of the Bitcoin network.
Saylor’s BTC Holdings Reach $10B
MicroStrategy’s Bitcoin investment has surpassed the $10 billion threshold, holding over 190,000 BTC as Bitcoin’s price exceeds $50,000. This milestone highlights MicroStrategy’s faith in Bitcoin’s long-term potential and its role as a hedge against inflation, as noted by Arslan Butt from Cryptonews.
Since entering the Bitcoin market in August 2020, MicroStrategy’s BTC portfolio has grown significantly, even in the face of challenges during the bear market in early 2022. Despite a decline in its fourth-quarter revenue and profit, MicroStrategy, under Michael Saylor’s guidance, continued to enhance its Bitcoin holdings, acquiring an additional 850 BTC for $37.2 million in January alone.
