- MicroStrategy‘s Michael Saylor presented a comprehensive cryptocurrency strategy at the White House Digital Assets Summit that claims could unlock $100 trillion in economic value.
- Saylor categorized digital assets into four classes: tokens, securities, currencies, and commodities, calling for clear regulations and removal of barriers to innovation.
- A key recommendation includes the U.S. government acquiring 5-25% of Bitcoin supply by 2035, potentially generating $16-81 trillion by 2045.
MicroStrategy Executive Chairman Michael Saylor outlined a far-reaching cryptocurrency strategy at the inaugural White House Digital Assets Summit, proposing a framework that he claims could generate up to $100 trillion in economic value for the United States over the next decade through regulatory clarity and strategic bitcoin acquisition.
During Friday’s summit, Saylor presented a comprehensive cryptocurrency strategy that divides digital assets into four distinct categories to guide regulatory approach and economic integration. The taxonomy includes digital tokens for capital creation, digital securities for market efficiency, digital currencies for strengthening the dollar’s global position, and digital commodities like bitcoin for wealth preservation.
“The government should encourage and provide support for major banks to custody, trade, and finance bitcoin assets. Debanking of crypto industry participants should not be tolerated,” stated the proposal document Saylor presented.
The summit, marking a significant shift from the previous administration’s approach, brought together industry leaders from Coinbase, Ripple, Kraken, Gemini, ChainLink, Robinhood and other prominent cryptocurrency companies. This gathering signals the Trump administration’s intention to adopt a more supportive stance toward the digital asset industry.
Saylor’s proposal emphasized ending what he described as “hostile and unfair tax policies” on cryptocurrencies while maintaining sufficient disclosure requirements to prevent fraud and conflicts of interest. He argued that proper government support would allow the cryptocurrency sector to reach its full potential while integrating smoothly with traditional financial systems.
Perhaps the most ambitious element of Saylor’s vision involves establishing a strategic bitcoin reserve. The plan calls for the United States to systematically acquire between 5% and 25% of the total bitcoin supply by 2035 through programmatic purchases. According to Saylor’s projections, such a reserve could generate between $16 trillion and $81 trillion by 2045, potentially providing a long-term solution for reducing national debt.
MicroStrategy, under Saylor’s leadership, has already implemented a similar strategy at the corporate level, having accumulated 499,096 BTC since adopting bitcoin as a treasury reserve asset in 2020. This approach has positioned MicroStrategy as a significant player in institutional bitcoin adoption.
The White House Crypto Summit represents a pivotal moment for the industry as it seeks clearer regulatory guidance and government support following years of uncertainty. By establishing proper frameworks for different types of digital assets, Saylor argues that the United States can maintain its position of economic leadership while embracing the technological innovation that cryptocurrencies represent.
