U.Today – As (BTC) experiences a period of price lull, Michael Saylor, President of MicroStrategy, has made a public statement that has resonated throughout the cryptocurrency community. His message is simple and direct: “Bet on Bitcoin.”
Saylor's statement comes at a crucial time for Bitcoin. After major price movements, the world's largest cryptocurrency is experiencing an unusual calm.
In a recent tweet, Saylor reinforced his unwavering confidence in Bitcoin, saying he was “betting” on the digital asset despite the current lull in prices. This bold proclamation is not out of character for Saylor, who has consistently defended Bitcoin as a superior store of value and hedge against inflation.
MicroStrategy, under Saylor's leadership, has been at the forefront of corporate investment in Bitcoin. The company's aggressive acquisition strategy has allowed it to amass a significant Bitcoin portfolio, making it one of the largest institutional holders of the cryptocurrency. Saylor's latest message, “Bet on Bitcoin,” could be a reaffirmation of his belief in Bitcoin's long-term potential.
The timing of Saylor's statement is noteworthy as it coincides with broader market sentiment that is cautiously optimistic.
On Friday, the price of Bitcoin (BTC) rose above $67,000 for the first time in almost a month, as bulls emerged after eight weeks of downward sideways movement. Following this feat, Bitcoin price has shown relatively little movement, failing to reach $68,000 as the bulls take a short breather.
Bitcoin rose 0.06% in the last 24 hours to $67,007, after reaching intraday highs of $67,701. Bitcoin is still up 10% in the last seven days. As the market watches and waits for Bitcoin's next move, Saylor's voice serves as a bullish counterweight, encouraging cryptocurrency holders to remain steadfast in their beliefs.
