The MicroStrategy co-founder stated, “Just as Satoshi left a million Bitcoin to the universe, I am leaving whatever I have to the civilization.”
Michael Saylor, co-founder and executive chairman of MicroStrategy, wants to leave his money to people in need, just like Satoshi Nakamoto, the anonymous author of Bitcoin.
Saylor recently discussed his personal motivation in an interview with The New Zealand Herald, indicating that his objective extends beyond financial gain. Saylor compared Bitcoin to electricity and steel in the interview, describing it as the future of economics.
He made the following statement: “You take away steel and electricity—those are two huge ones—take away the electricity, you have no lift. The structure collapses when steel is removed.”
Saylor regards Bitcoin as “pure, silent, programmable, immortal money,” and he is of the opinion that it provides a comparable foundation for the economy.
Saylor stated in the interview that in order for a company, family, or endowment to endure indefinitely, it is necessary to capitalize it with an asset that is impervious to deterioration.
In his opinion, conventional currencies degenerate like “economic clay or balsa wood,” whereas Bitcoin maintains its value over time.
“For a period of 100 years, the dollar’s annual rate is 7%. Whatever you are, you lose 99.9% of it when you lose 7% of your vitality over the course of 100 years,” said Saylor.
Additionally, he likened Bitcoin to a battery that maintains its charge indefinitely, suggesting that it retains economic vitality indefinitely.
According to the Bitcoin evangelist, the world’s largest cryptocurrency represents “a significant advancement for humanity, as economics transitions from an art form to a science for the first time.”
