Indeed, Michael Saylor, the co-founder of Strategy, escalated his bullish Bitcoin narrative at BTC Prague 2025. In his outlandish but certainly attention-grabbing forecast, he confidently declares that one Bitcoin may reach $21 million in 21 years. Speaking to thousands of attendees on Saturday, Saylor credited a shifting political landscape, particularly Donald Trump’s election victory, for fostering a pro-crypto stance in Washington and state legislatures. His bullish prediction comes just as Bitcoin is closing in on $100k—a price point that puts Saylor’s forecast in moonshot territory for most.

While this may sound too bullish to be true, Saylor’s comments at BTC Prague 2025 stretched the limits of his already bullish reputation. That’s the company-intelligence firm he heads up that’s just bolstered an already impressive billion dollars with the addition of Bitcoin. This investment brings its total holdings to over 592,100 coins. BTC Prague 2025, according to the tone set by the conference organizers, will be builder-heavy and maximalist — doubling down on Saylor’s positive prediction.

This allowed Saylor to make the claim that the United States has moved from regulatory friction to political embrace since last summer. He believes that Donald Trump's election victory has significantly contributed to this shift, influencing Washington's stance on cryptocurrency and setting a precedent for state legislatures.

For all his good cheer, Saylor still has not agreed to release a third-party proof-of-reserves report, claiming it would compromise security. His caution used to cover skepticism about self-custody, a position that earned him ire from Bitcoin maximalists. He had first proposed as much with cold-storage wallets made available “for folks willing and able” by late 2024. Twelve months ago, Saylor’s long-range bitcoin price prediction was $13 million — by 2045.
