Michael Saylor, the founder of Strategy, formerly known as MicroStrategy, has issued new forecasts for Bitcoin, emphasizing the rise of institutional investments and optimistic signals in the market.
Saylor's Optimistic Forecasts for Bitcoin
In his latest post on platform X, Saylor shared a chart indicating strong buy signals for Bitcoin, highlighting the potential for price growth. He previously predicted that the iShares Bitcoin Trust ETF (IBIT) would be one of the top-performing investment vehicles from the renowned asset management firm BlackRock.
Bitcoin Market and Institutional Investments
Despite the S&P 500 and Nasdaq Composite reaching record highs, Bitcoin has not matched these results. While it gained 15% in the first half of 2025, this falls significantly short of crypto investors' expectations. The decline in retail interest may be one reason why major price movements have been driven by large institutional players like Strategy.
Long-term Prospects for Bitcoin
Despite current challenges such as falling retail interest, some analysts, including Ark Invest CEO Cathie Wood, maintain an optimistic long-term outlook for Bitcoin. Wood highlighted important macroeconomic factors that could support a recovery in investment confidence and, consequently, the rise of high-risk assets, including Bitcoin.
Despite current market fluctuations, Bitcoin advocates remain confident in its future prospects, based on institutional investments and economic indicators.
