Michael Saylor, chairman of MicroStrategy, stated that Bitcoin (BTC) will serve as a financial asset in the long run.
On the 2nd (local time), Saylor said through his X account, "Bitcoin functions as a trading instrument that leverages price volatility in the short term, but in the long run, it will serve as a financial asset."
This perspective is being highlighted further in line with the recent trend of more companies strategically accumulating Bitcoin. Meanwhile, in an interview with CNBC the previous day, Saylor remarked, "I don't think purchasing 3~7% of Bitcoin's supply is a lot. It is possible to buy up to 1.5 million BTC."
