Michael Saylor, Chairman of MicroStrategy and a well-known Bitcoin advocate, is set to present to Microsoft, urging them to invest in digital currency.
Saylor’s 3-Minute Presentation
Saylor aims to convince Microsoft that adding Bitcoin to their investment strategy can stabilize the company's stock. He argues that Bitcoin, as a proven store of value, could reduce volatility and improve Microsoft's long-term stability. During a recent interview at the VanEck X Spaces event, Saylor confirmed he was contacted by an activist supporting the Bitcoin proposal for Microsoft.
A Missed Opportunity?
Saylor also attempted to meet with Microsoft CEO Satya Nadella to discuss the benefits of Bitcoin investment, but the offer was declined. Nonetheless, Saylor’s upcoming presentation remains his primary opportunity to make his case. The proposal, to be voted on by shareholders on December 10, is backed by the National Center for Public Policy Research (NCPPR), emphasizing the success of MicroStrategy's Bitcoin strategy.
Bitcoin's Price Eyes New ATH
The proposal and Saylor's presentation come as more companies recognize the value of Bitcoin as a reserve asset. MicroStrategy's large holdings make them one of the leading corporate holders of the cryptocurrency.
With rising inflation and global uncertainty, Bitcoin is seen by many as a safe asset for value preservation. Saylor believes now is the optimal time for companies to invest in Bitcoin.
