Michael Saylor shared an ambitious proposal that the US government could amass a large Bitcoin reserve and create up to $81 trillion in wealth by 2045.
Saylor, a Bitcoin (BTC) advocate and co-founder of Microstrategy, presented this blueprint at the White House Cryptocurrency Summit.
Michael Saylor, Trump Administration's Bitcoin Accumulation Plan
Saylor's plan was presented as a blueprint for economic dominance, proposing that the government steadily purchase Bitcoin over the next 10 years to secure 5% to 25% of the network.
"I shared this at the White House Digital Assets Summit." - Saylor confirmed.
Saylor's vision is based on the idea that Bitcoin's fixed supply and increasing global adoption will lead to significant appreciation in value over time.
According to his plan, the US government would start accumulating Bitcoin in 2025 and continue until 2035, by which time 99% of the total Bitcoin will have been mined.
"From 2025 to 2035, steadily acquire 5-25% of the Bitcoin network in trust for the nation. By that time, 99% of the total BTC will have been issued." - excerpt from the blueprint.
Following this strategy, the US could secure up to 25% of the total supply, establishing a dominant position in the global financial system. Saylor argued that this move would have a transformative impact on the economy.
Saylor estimates that the strategic Bitcoin reserve could generate $16 trillion to $81 trillion in value for the US Treasury by 2045, depending on the scale of adoption and future price appreciation of Bitcoin.
This reserve would serve as a long-term store of value for the nation, providing an alternative to traditional monetary assets and a strong hedge against inflation.
Additionally, Saylor said this strategy would secure America's financial future, strengthen the dollar, reduce national debt, and solidify the country's position as a global economic leader.
Saylor Opposes Selling US Government's Bitcoin Holdings
One of the most notable aspects of Saylor's proposal is his insistence that the US should never sell its Bitcoin holdings. Instead, he expects the SBR to generate at least $10 trillion annually by 2045.
He argues that this would create a self-sustaining economic engine to solve the national debt problem. It would also allow the US to fund technological advancements, critical infrastructure, and social programs without raising taxes or excessive borrowing.
Beyond just buying Bitcoin, Saylor's comprehensive digital asset framework includes sweeping regulatory changes to position the US as the epicenter of the digital currency wave.
He advocates for clear and supportive regulations that foster innovation while ensuring market integrity.
"Hostile and unfair tax policies towards crypto miners, holders, and exchanges hinder industry growth and must be removed, along with arbitrary, capricious, and discriminatory regulations." - Saylor added.
His plan categorizes digital assets into four groups: digital tokens, digital securities, digital currencies, and digital commodities, each serving specific functions within the economy, he explained.
Notably, if the US government follows Saylor's 25% Bitcoin supply purchase, it would hold 5.25 million BTC, more than the 1 million BTC (5% of supply) proposed by Wyoming Senator Cynthia Lummis in the Bitcoin bill introduced in August 2024.
