Michael Saylor Advocates for Bitcoin as America’s Digital Property at ‘Bitcoin For America’ Summit

On March 12th, at the “Bitcoin For America” summit organized by the Bitcoin Policy Institute in Washington, D.C., Michael Saylor, Strategy Chairman of MicroStrategy, emphasized the importance of Bitcoin as a cornerstone for America’s **digital dominance** in the 21st century. He proposed that the U.S. should view Bitcoin as a form of digital **property** and advocated for substantial acquisitions of Bitcoin to leverage future financial strategies such as “leasing and financing.” Saylor forecasted the potential for **trillions** of dollars in economic activities to circulate through the Bitcoin network, underscoring the necessity for the U.S. to enhance its stake in this burgeoning ecosystem. Furthermore, Saylor postulated that Bitcoin reflects core **American values**, effectively serving as an alternative for international individuals unable to migrate to the U.S. He stated, “For many from Asia and Africa, engaging with Bitcoin offers a semblance of U.S. **security** and ideals, allowing them to safeguard their assets within a framework representative of American principles.”
