During the BTC Prague 2025 event, Michael Saylor shared his views on the future of Bitcoin and France's potential role in its spread across Europe.
Michael Saylor's Prediction
Strategy founder Michael Saylor made an optimistic forecast during his speech at BTC Prague that Bitcoin could reach a price of $21 million within 21 years. This marks a significant increase from his previous forecast of $13 million by 2045. Saylor links his expectations to shifts in the geopolitical and regulatory landscape surrounding Bitcoin, noting the support from the U.S. government as a key moment.
Defense of Strategy's Stock Premium
Blockstream CEO Adam Back defended the premium on Strategy stock, stating it is justified by the rapid accumulation of Bitcoin. He explained that the growth rate of Bitcoin per share reduces risk for investors. Back highlighted that despite stock fluctuations, this growth ensures the company's stability.
Bitcoin's Potential in France
Jan3 founder Samson Mow reported a meeting with French lawmaker Sarah Knafo, discussing the potential creation of a strategic Bitcoin reserve for France. Mow is optimistic about state-level Bitcoin adoption in Europe, while Knafo emphasized the importance of French involvement in cryptocurrency discussions.
The future of Bitcoin and its acceptance in Europe may hinge on political and regulatory developments, with France potentially taking a leading role in this process.
