Strategy’s Michael Saylor Predicts Bitcoin Price Could Reach $21 Million By 2046

Highlights:

• Saylor believes Bitcoin might reach $21 million by 2046 with U.S. backing.
• New laws and politics are making him more confident about Bitcoin’s future.
• He believes Bitcoin will beat markets each year, even with price swings.

In a Saturday post on X, Strategy founder Michael Saylor boldly projected that Bitcoin could reach a price of $21 million within the next 21 years. His new Bitcoin forecast marks a major jump from what he projected at the 2024 Bitcoin conference in Nashville, where he expected the price to reach $13 million by 2045.

Saylor Says US Support and New Laws Are Fueling Bitcoin Confidence

“I think we’re going to be $21 million in 21 years. It’s a very special time in the network. Maybe the one time in the history of the network where you look out 21 years and you see $21 million,” Saylor stated.

In his keynote at BTC Prague 2025, Saylor said his growing confidence in Bitcoin comes from recent political, legal, and adoption changes that no one expected last year. He mentioned that the past 11 months have brought surprising events, including support for Bitcoin from the White House, which wasn’t expected at all. Saylor added that he’s always believed in Bitcoin—even when it dropped to $16,000 during the last bear market. But Trump’s win last November, he said, completely shifted the political landscape.

He said people hoped for a pro-Bitcoin leader but didn’t expect a full Bitcoin reserve or a President pushing to lead the world in Bitcoin. He also mentioned new crypto laws like the Genius Act, the Bitcoin Act, and the Digital Asset Market Clarity Act. “This is something nobody guessed, no one conceived of a year ago. States in the United States are embracing Bitcoin,” Saylor said.

Saylor Sees Bitcoin Price Beating S&P 500

Saylor expects Bitcoin to remain volatile but believes it will still grow at a steady 21% yearly rate. He also said Bitcoin should keep beating the S&P 500 every year until 2046. Right now, Bitcoin is trading at $102K and has stayed above $100K for more than a month, even with the Israel-Iran tensions. While the recent market dip caused a slight drop in BTC’s price, Saylor sees it as a minor pause in a much bigger upward trend. “It’s still going to be the best capital asset a company can hold,” said Michael Saylor. “There will not be a better investment in the year 2046.”

Besides Saylor’s bold prediction, his company has kept buying more Bitcoin, adding $1 billion last week. As of June 15, it held around 592,100 BTC, but it hasn’t shared where or how it stores them. At a May 26 event, Saylor criticized proof-of-reserves, saying it weakens the safety of issuers, exchanges, and investors.

American broadcaster Max Keiser showed support for Michael Saylor’s bold Bitcoin price forecast. In a tweet, he hinted that Saylor’s view suggests other assets, including the U.S. dollar, may lose value when compared to Bitcoin.
