Michael Saylor, Executive Chairman of MicroStrategy (now Strategy Inc.), has once again reaffirmed his unwavering belief in Bitcoin. In a post shared today, July 17, he stated:
“For the past five years, the only thing better than Bitcoin is more Bitcoin.”
The quote was published directly on his official X account, accompanied by a chart comparing the performance of Bitcoin to his company’s stock over the past half-decade.
Strategy Inc. outperforms Bitcoin
According to the data posted by Saylor:
- Strategy’s stock is up +3,558% over the last five years.
- In the same period, Bitcoin has risen +905%.
This reflects the direct impact of MicroStrategy’s aggressive BTC accumulation strategy, which began in 2020 and turned the company into a benchmark for institutional Bitcoin adoption.
226,331 BTC under corporate control
As of the latest official filings, Strategy Inc. holds 226,331 BTC, acquired for approximately $8.3 billion. The current market value of that position exceeds $15 billion, making it the largest corporate holder of Bitcoin globally.
The company’s BTC strategy has been publicly documented in SEC filings and investor reports, reinforcing the credibility of its long-term vision.
A maximalist vision set in stone
Saylor’s statement echoes his long-standing view that Bitcoin is the most secure, scarce, and sound monetary asset of the modern era. In his words, owning more Bitcoin isn’t just smart — it’s essential.
While markets fluctuate, Strategy continues to buy. The philosophy? Bitcoin is not just an asset. It’s the future.
