Michael Saylor, the co-founder of MicroStrategy and a diehard Bitcoin bull, dropped a jaw-dropping prediction on March 4, 2025, claiming Bitcoin’s market cap could soar to $200 trillion. In a fiery X post, Saylor doubled down on his long-standing hype for BTC, arguing it’s the ultimate store of value in a world where traditional finance is crumbling.

The crypto community’s split on this. Some on X are cheering, calling it visionary, while others are rolling their eyes, pointing to Saylor’s track record of missing the mark on price calls. Bitcoin’s had a rollercoaster ride lately—up to $110,000 in January 2025 after Trump’s pro-crypto talk, then dipping below $85K now as markets cool off. A $200 trillion market cap would mean Bitcoin eating up a huge chunk of global wealth, dwarfing gold’s $16 trillion and the entire stock market’s $110 trillion. Critics argue it’s pie-in-the-sky, given Bitcoin’s volatility and limited use cases, but Saylor’s unfazed, framing it as a “worldview shift” for finance.
MicroStrategy’s stock took a hit after Saylor’s post, dropping 3% in after-hours trading, maybe because investors are skeptical or just nervous about the hype. Still, Saylor’s sticking to his guns, urging folks to “stack sats” while the price is “on sale.” Whether this prediction’s genius or madness, it’s got the crypto world buzzing—and Saylor’s not backing down.
