Strategy co-founder Michael Saylor presented a comprehensive cryptocurrency strategy at a White House summit, arguing that the U.S. could unlock up to $100 trillion in economic value over the next decade by creating clear regulations, removing barriers to innovation, and strategically accumulating bitcoin.
Saylor proposed a structured approach to these assets, dividing them into four categories: digital tokens for capital formation and innovation, digital securities for improving market efficiency, digital currencies for trading and strengthening the dollar’s position on the global stage, and digital commodities such as Bitcoin for wealth accumulation.
In his proposal, Saylor argued that such a classification would reduce regulatory uncertainty and make it easier for digital assets to be integrated into the traditional financial system. His proposal would remove restrictions on cryptocurrencies, allowing U.S. participants to more quickly access capital markets while ensuring that the U.S. dollar remains an integral part of global commerce.

The event featured many industry figures, including the heads of Coinbase, Ripple, Strategy, Kraken, Gemini, Chainlink, Robinhood, and others.

At the same time, Saylor’s proposal emphasized the importance of fair disclosure and accountability to prevent fraud and conflicts of interest. The Strategy founder also called for an end to “hostile and unfair tax policies” towards the crypto sector. Instead, government support would help the industry “realize its full potential.”
“The government should encourage and support large banks to hold, trade and finance bitcoin assets. Debanking of crypto industry participants is unacceptable,” the proposal states.
The centerpiece of Saylor’s vision is a strategic bitcoin reserve that would allow the U.S. to accumulate 5%-25% of the total supply of bitcoin by 2035 through ongoing purchase programs. Strategy, the firm founded by Saylor, adopted bitcoin as a Treasury reserve asset in 2020 and has since acquired 499,096 BTC.
He predicts that by 2045 this reserve could yield between 16 and
