Bitcoin, the world’s largest cryptocurrency, continues to dominate the market with a $1.8 trillion valuation. Despite its massive size, MicroStrategy co-founder Michael Saylor believes a major Bitcoin price surge is coming.
At present, Bitcoin accounts for over half of the total $2.9 trillion cryptocurrency market. However, Saylor predicts Bitcoin could climb 13,800% by 2045, reaching a value of $13 million per coin.
To support his bold forecast, Saylor has made significant moves through MicroStrategy. The company now holds more than 538,000 Bitcoins, currently valued around $50 billion. Clearly, Saylor is putting his money where his mouth is.
Moreover, Saylor argues Bitcoin will transform the financial system entirely. He points out that existing record systems, such as real estate databases in the U.S., are inefficient and outdated. For instance, property sales often involve high legal fees and lengthy verification processes.
Similarly, corporate intellectual property lacks transparent public records, making fair valuation difficult for investors. Therefore, Saylor proposes “tokenizing” global assets to simplify ownership and transactions.
Under his vision, all assets including real estate and company shares—would shift to blockchain systems. Consequently, buying, selling, and transferring assets would become faster, cheaper, and more transparent.
Because Bitcoin is decentralized, secure, and immune to manipulation, Saylor sees it as the ultimate reserve asset. He believes Bitcoin will serve as the currency for all tokenized transactions.
Considering the world holds approximately $500 trillion in assets, the potential for a Bitcoin price surge remains enormous. However, Saylor acknowledges that achieving this vision will take time.
He anticipates progress under a U.S. government supportive of digital assets. Notably, he highlights President Donald Trump’s administration as being very pro-crypto.
Looking forward, if regulatory frameworks align, the financial landscape could shift dramatically. Thus, according to Saylor, a historic Bitcoin price surge could reshape global finance by 2045.
