TechFlow news, March 12 — According to Bitcoin Magazine, at the "Bitcoin For America" summit hosted by the Bitcoin Policy Institute (BPI), a Washington D.C.-based think tank, Michael Saylor, Executive Chairman of Strategy, stated that a strategic Bitcoin reserve represents America's digital sovereignty strategy for the 21st century. Saylor advocates treating Bitcoin as digital property and believes the U.S. should acquire as much Bitcoin as possible to enable "leasing and financing" on top of it.
Saylor predicted that trillions of dollars in commercial activity will eventually flow through the Bitcoin network, providing another reason why the U.S. should prioritize capturing network share. He emphasized that Bitcoin embodies American values, and holding Bitcoin is the next best option for people who cannot physically move to the United States.
"If they could, people from Asia and Africa would all move to America. They want American money, security, and values—but they can't get them," Saylor said. "So the next best thing they can do is move their capital into the Bitcoin network, which carries all the values, protections, and security of America."
