Bitcoin Has Reached Criticality | Michael Saylor's $21M Forecast - (a Swan original video) with Hurley
TL;DR: Michael Saylor predicts Bitcoin could reach $21 million per coin within 21 years, calling this the greatest opportunity of our lifetime. He argues that Bitcoin has achieved escape velocity!
Hey Bitcoiners,
Over the past year, Bitcoin has undergone a profound shift, gaining institutional legitimacy and political momentum unlike anything seen before. From the White House and Wall Street to state governments and public companies, Bitcoin has moved from fringe speculation to strategic reserve asset.
Michael Saylor's keynote at BTC Prague emphasized this inflection point, forecasting $21 million per coin within 21 years and declaring Bitcoin has reached “criticality”—a self-sustaining network that can no longer be stopped or ignored.
Saylor argues this isn't just another cycle—it’s a civilizational shift. Bitcoin is not a stock, not gold, and not a bubble; it's a foundational technology—digital energy—that transcends traditional finance.
As it integrates into treasuries, legal frameworks, and infrastructure worldwide, Bitcoin is becoming the base layer of a new monetary system. Like fire, electricity, or the internet, it’s never “too late” to adopt transformative technology—and Bitcoin, he insists, is the most important of them all.
