Michael Saylor Pitches Bitcoin-Backed Digital Banking Blueprint as Strategy Adds 10,624 BTC
At the Bitcoin MENA conference, Michael Saylor urged governments to build Bitcoin-backed digital bank accounts using heavily overcollateralized tokenized credit tied to sovereign BTC reserves, arguing the model could attract tens of trillions of dollars in deposits. Strategy recently bought 10,624 BTC for about $962.7 million, bringing its holdings to 660,624 BTC worth more than $60 billion, even as its share price has dropped roughly 51% over the past year.
