Michael Saylor recently presented an ambitious proposal suggesting the US government should acquire between 5% and 25% of Bitcoin’s total supply . He unveiled this bold strategy at the White House Crypto Summit, aiming to position the US as the leading power in the global digital economy. Under this strategy, the government would consistently buy Bitcoin daily from 2025 until 2035, by which time almost all Bitcoins will be mined. Saylor argues that this methodical approach could generate between $16 trillion and $81 trillion in wealth for the US economy by 2045, thanks to Bitcoin's limited supply and growing global use. Saylor strongly advises the government to hold the acquired Bitcoin permanently, rather than selling any of it. He believes that by 2045, the Bitcoin reserve could produce at least $10 trillion per year , helping to significantly lower the national debt. Additionally, the profits could fund vital infrastructure projects, technological innovation, and public welfare without the need for increased taxation or further borrowing. A core component of Saylor’s broader vision includes major regulatory reforms. He wants to remove restrictive crypto regulations, arguing these policies currently limit the growth of the crypto sector in the US. According to Saylor, tax policies targeting crypto miners, investors, and exchanges need to become more transparent and fair to boost innovation and market stability. His regulatory framework clearly classifies digital assets into four categories: digital tokens, digital securities, digital currencies, and digital commodities. Each type would serve a unique economic purpose, offering clarity for future development in the digital economy. If the US follows Saylor’s plan and acquires the proposed maximum, it would hold approximately 5.25 million Bitcoins, significantly more than previous proposals such as the Bitcoin Act suggested by Senator Cynthia Lummis , who recommended acquiring only 1 million Bitcoins. Saylor believes his plan would establish economic dominance, strengthen the dollar, and secure the nation’s financial future. While highly ambitious, the proposal demonstrates Saylor’s confidence in Bitcoin’s potential to reshape global finance and secure America's leadership in the digital age.
