MicroStrategy founder Michael Saylor recently released a "cosmic-level" Bitcoin prediction — a price of $15 million per Bitcoin, with a total market cap exceeding $300 trillion, and MicroStrategy ultimately holding $30 trillion worth of Bitcoin reserves.
This is not a joke; the figures have been confirmed multiple times, and this is indeed the statement.
At first glance, it seems more like showcasing the limits of human imagination. But upon serious reflection, there is actually an interesting underlying question:
Is the value of Bitcoin skyrocketing wildly? Or is the US dollar experiencing a significant loss of purchasing power?
If this logic continues, what would reality look like? Buying a bottle of mineral water for $100 million? Ordering takeout and having to sign an installment agreement first? It’s easy to see that this is unrealistic.
Therefore, Saylor’s remarks may not be a price prediction at all, but rather an expression of concern about the future monetary system — what might happen when fiat currency’s purchasing power continues to decline to the extreme.
Such level of future speculation is enough as a discussion topic. Believing it outright would be truly extraordinary.

Saylor's guy is basically packaging inflation fears into Bitcoin faith, his rhetoric is indeed clever...
If he really plays that way, then taking out a loan to buy bottled water is the real issue.
30 trillion in reserves? Wake up, he's just looking for an excuse to drive up Bitcoin prices.
Dollar devaluation and Bitcoin price increase are actually two different things, but he insists on mixing them together.
Instead of listening to his nonsense, it's better to see who is actually accumulating coins and who is calling the shots in reality.
Such level of statements are just good for entertainment gossip.

saylor this guy is just trying to scare people, 300 trillion market cap? Basically implying that fiat currency is doomed
How pure must someone’s mind be to believe in these numbers
Anyway, I just HODL, let them do whatever they want
This guy’s statements sound okay, but only those who go all in are real gamblers
In the end, it’s just a way of saying the dollar is about to fail, which is what crypto people love to talk about
15 million dollars per Bitcoin... dream on? But the premise is that the dollar will be hyper-depreciated
This logic isn’t wrong, it’s just that the numbers are too outrageous, I can’t help but laugh
Every crypto big shot has to make a "universe-level" prediction to attract attention, it’s an old trick
A billion dollars for bottled water... by then, we might lack water to drink
Honestly, these predictions are just jokes, don’t take them seriously

Staring at this number at 3 a.m... What does $15 million worth of BTC mean? It’s a re-pricing of the entire financial system. Rather than saying the coin price is soaring, it’s more like a warning light for the dollar’s complete devaluation. Saylor might really be warning us about something.

Saylor is probably trying to express inflation fears, basically saying the dollar is doomed.
People who truly believe this... I give up, $100 million for bottled water? Wake up, everyone.
Bitcoin going up or the dollar going down, essentially it's the same thing. Those who can't understand will never understand.
It's okay to listen, but if you take it seriously, you'll just be foolish haha.
If this logic were really valid, we would have gone all in long ago... but reality is the best slap in the face.

Damn, 15 million for one, that number makes my scalp tingle... Is Saylor hinting that the dollar is doomed?
If that's really the case, then the fiat we’re saving now is just worthless paper. That thought is a bit scary.
But on the other hand, is this guy truly convinced or just trying to scare people? It just doesn’t feel right.
Just listen and take it as a story, don’t follow the trend to buy, or you might get cut.
Wait, if we follow this logic, isn’t our current holdings actually appreciating secretly?
The key is, when will that happen? I’m afraid if I wait too long, no one will want the coins anymore...
This kind of prediction looks like an excuse for their own HODL haha

Saylor really has limitless imagination, 300 trillion? I’ve been trying to wrap my head around it for a while, and it feels like he’s telling a science fiction story.
Heard a lot about the death of fiat currency, but this time it really hits the point... The depreciation rate of the US dollar is truly accelerating.
The moment Bitcoin hits 15 million USD, the dollar probably becomes worthless paper. Instead of predicting BTC will rise, it’s more like the dollar is desperately losing value on a treadmill.
But just listen for fun, as entertainment gossip. Taking this as an investment guide is really going off the rails.
