Summary
- Michael Saylor stated that Microsoft should stop buying bonds and its own shares and adopt Bitcoin.
- He criticized Microsoft's financial strategy for making it vulnerable to market volatility.
- He claimed that if Microsoft had invested in Bitcoin, the corporate value would have increased by $5 trillion.

Michael Saylor, founder of Strategy, has once again urged Microsoft to stockpile Bitcoin (BTC).
According to CryptoBriefing on the 7th (local time), Michael Saylor stated at the 'Strategy World 2025' event that "Bitcoin is the asset with the highest returns," and that "Microsoft should stop buying bonds and its own shares and adopt Bitcoin."
He criticized Microsoft's financial strategy. Saylor said, "Microsoft is using its cash flow for share buybacks, dividends, and low-yield bonds. It's essentially destroying its own capital," emphasizing that "this makes it more vulnerable to market volatility, and shareholders are exposed to greater risks in the long term." He added, "Microsoft has returned $200 billion to shareholders over the past five years, but if that money had been invested in Bitcoin, there would have been a $5 trillion increase in corporate value."
He also said that the era of Bitcoin will unfold. He stated, "Since last year, Bitcoin has emerged as an alternative to bonds," and "the 21st century will be dominated by Bitcoin, surpassing the 19th century dominated by gold and the 20th century dominated by government bonds."
Previously, in December, Saylor proposed Bitcoin stockpiling at Microsoft's shareholder meeting, but the proposal was rejected.
