Michael Saylor from MicroStrategy proposed a strategy for Microsoft to increase its market value by $4.9 trillion by 2034 by integrating Bitcoin.
Saylor's Proposal
On December 1, Saylor presented a proposal emphasizing Bitcoin as a transformative technology and urged Microsoft to seize this opportunity.
Microsoft's Transition to Bitcoin
Saylor suggested Microsoft convert its cash flows, dividends, and even its debt into Bitcoin. He argues this move could significantly boost Microsoft's stock price and reduce risks for shareholders, highlighting the diminishing benefits of traditional strategies like stock buybacks and bonds.
MicroStrategy’s Bitcoin Experience
MicroStrategy has accumulated 386,700 BTC since 2020. Saylor noted the company’s stock has surged by 465% in 2024, and highlighted the growing public and political support for Bitcoin as a beneficial strategy for Microsoft.
Saylor believes it's an opportune time for companies like Microsoft to invest in Bitcoin, given its rapid growth and public support.
