Michael Saylor, known for his staunch support of Bitcoin, made a surprising statement on June 12, saying, “If you have everything—you don’t need Bitcoin.” Saylor’s company, Strategy, holds 582,000 BTC valued at $62.3 billion, making it the largest public corporate holder of Bitcoin. Tesla follows closely behind with 11,509 BTC worth $1.2 billion. Saylor’s remarks have sparked a range of reactions, with some saying Bitcoin is a hedge against losing everything, while others believe it is the key to having everything. Despite Saylor’s change in stance, Bitcoin maximalists continue to view the cryptocurrency as both a store of value and a hedge against inflation. At present, Bitcoin is priced at $106,845.40, representing a significant surge of over 1,100% in the last five years.
