Michael Saylor Issues Crucial Bitcoin Statement as BTC Soars to $68,000

As a seasoned financial analyst with over two decades of experience in the industry and a keen observer of market trends, I have witnessed the meteoric rise of Bitcoin (BTC) and its transformation from a niche digital currency to a global phenomenon. The recent price surge of BTC above $68,000, though short-lived, is yet another testament to its growing acceptance and demand in today’s financial world.


Michael Saylor, a prominent backer of Bitcoin and the co-founder of MicroStrategy, took to Twitter to express his optimism as Bitcoin experienced a significant price surge.

Bitcoin soared past the $68,000 mark earlier today but later gave up those gains, with prices dropping back down over the last few hours.

Bitcoin surpasses S&P 500 and Nasdaq

Michael Saylor recently unveiled a chart highlighting Bitcoin’s dominance over conventional assets. This diagram underscores Bitcoin’s growth since MicroStrategy executed its inaugural Bitcoin acquisition on August 10, 2020.

Over the last four years, Bitcoin’s annualized return has averaged an impressive 55%, while the S&P 500 and Nasdaq indices managed just 14% each. On the other hand, gold and silver only offered returns of 5% and 2% respectively. Conversely, bonds showed a negative return of 2%. (Diagram)

“I’m reminded of Bitcoin being the best option for some as MicroStrategy’s share price now outperforms notable companies like Nvidia.”

#Bitcoin is the only way to get ahead.
