Michael Saylor: U.S. Bitcoin Reserve Could Generate $81 Trillion
Michael Saylor, Chairman of Strategy (formerly MicroStrategy), presented a plan to the US government to adopt Bitcoin as a national currency at the White House Digital Assets Summit.
He proposed the creation of a Strategic Bitcoin Reserve (SBR) which he believes could add up to $81 trillion to the US Treasury by 2045.
His proposal emphasizes:
Buying 5-25% of the total Bitcoin supply through daily purchases between 2025-2035
Integrating Bitcoin into the US dollar’s global dominance
Removing crypto tax policies and regulatory hurdles to encourage adoption in banking and finance

With 99% of the total Bitcoin supply expected to be mined by 2035, Saylor argues that a calculated accumulation strategy would give the US a controlling position in the digital asset space.
How Bitcoin Could Offset U.S. National Debt
Saylor’s argument is based on Bitcoin’s scarcity and long term appreciation. He projects that a well managed Bitcoin reserve could generate trillions in unrealized gains which could be used to pay off the national debt.
Key financial benefits of a U.S. Bitcoin reserve include:
Wealth Creation: Holding a significant share of Bitcoin could appreciate exponentially, contributing to federal reserves.
Debt Offset: Saylor estimates that Bitcoin’s price trajectory could help cover a significant portion of U.S. sovereign debt.
Economic Stability: With Bitcoin acting as a hedge against inflation, it could provide a long-term store of value amid economic fluctuations.
His vision aligns with the increasing institutional acceptance of Bitcoin especially after the approval of spot Bitcoin ETFs which shows growing confidence in digital assets.
Regulatory Roadblocks and Political Considerations
While Saylor’s plan looks good financially, regulatory uncertainties are a big hurdle. The SEC and the House Financial Services Committee are currently evaluating Bitcoin’s role in national financial policy.

To encourage Bitcoin adoption as a national reserve asset Saylor recommends:
Regulatory clarity to encourage institutional investment
Elimination of capital gains tax on Bitcoin transactions
Government-backed adoption in banking and finance sectors
As policymakers continue to debate cryptocurrency regulations, Saylor’s proposal injects new urgency into the conversation about Bitcoin’s potential role in U.S. economic strategy. With geopolitical rivals like China exploring digital currency alternatives, his vision positions the U.S. as a leader in the digital financial revolution.
