Michael Saylor, the founder of Strategy (formerly MicroStrategy) and a vocal Bitcoin advocate, announced on X on March 5, 2025, that he’s been tapped to attend President Donald Trump’s White House Digital Assets Summit on March 7.
In his post, Saylor shared the invite, signaling his role in what could be a game-changer for crypto in the U.S. The summit, chaired by venture capitalist David Sacks, will gather crypto founders, CEOs, investors, and top policymakers to hash out the future of digital assets, riding the wave of Trump’s recent push to make the U.S. a crypto powerhouse.
I have been invited to the Digital Assets Summit at the White House this Friday, hosted by the President.

This event follows Trump’s March 2 announcement of a strategic reserve for digital coins, including Bitcoin, Ethereum, XRP, Solana, and Cardano, marking a sharp pivot toward embracing crypto after years of regulatory tension under the Biden admin. Saylor’s presence is no surprise—he’s been shouting from the rooftops about Bitcoin, recently arguing on X that the U.S. should grab 10–20% of the Bitcoin network as a strategic reserve. He calls it “the greatest economic program of the 21st century,” claiming it could help tackle the U.S.’s massive national debt. With Bitcoin trading at $86,000 today (up 2.3%), his pitch feels timely amid Trump’s pro-crypto agenda.
