Earlier this week, Strategy founder Michael Saylor addressed CPAC 2025 with a focus on bitcoin’s transformative impact on the financial landscape. Saylor, known for his pioneering stance on bitcoin, outlined the cryptocurrency’s ability to empower individuals and transform corporate balance sheets through a decentralized system that bypasses traditional financial gatekeepers.
During his address, Saylor asserted that bitcoin represents the most powerful technology force for conservatism in the world. He underscored the importance of sound money and sovereign money—a vision originally advanced by Satoshi. According to Saylor, the design of bitcoin, with its strict limit of 21 million coins, establishes an immutable integrity enforced by a vast global network of computers and users. This built-in scarcity and the system’s inherent resistance to tampering, he argued, create a new paradigm in which economic power shifts from centralized institutions to the individual.
Saylor said:
There is a truth, [and] there is a universal common ledger that no one can tamper with, no one can corrupt—not a nation state, not a company, not a politician.
Saylor also recounted how his company’s decision to recapitalize with bitcoin transformed its financial trajectory. By moving away from traditional cash reserves and government-backed securities, the company experienced a dramatic increase in market capitalization—from modest beginnings to a multi-billion-dollar valuation. This strategic pivot, he noted, was driven by the decentralized system’s capacity to deliver consistent returns and mitigate risks associated with conventional financial mechanisms.
“Bitcoin gave us a 60% return every year because the bitcoin interest rate is set by a global decentralized system of capital flows,” the Strategy founder remarked.
Emphasizing technological innovation, Saylor detailed bitcoin’s dual principles of integrity and sovereignty. He explained that bitcoin allows users to exercise self-custody over their assets, eliminating the need for intermediaries such as banks or financial institutions. This shift, he maintained, offers a significant advantage to smaller players in a marketplace dominated by trillion-dollar corporations, large banks, and governmental entities.
Saylor continued:
This is this is the challenge that 40 million companies in America have which is if you’re not one of the magnificent seven, if you’re not Apple or Google or Microsoft, how are you supposed to compete in a world where trillion dollar companies have all the power, big banks have all the power, big government has the power.
Concluding his remarks, Saylor stressed that the implications of bitcoin extend beyond corporate finance to redefine digital freedom and economic control. “So with Bitcoin, the idea is you can own a bitcoin and not you don’t have to trust a bank with it, you don’t have to trust the city with it, you don’t have to leave it in the custody of a big company. You can take self custody,” he said. His presentation at CPAC 2025 provided an objective snapshot of a broader movement toward decentralized finance, signaling a defining moment in the evolution of digital assets and their role in American economic strategy.
