Saylor recently opined Bitcoin had the potential to grow 100x towards a $100 trillion asset class and that it is gaining grounds on gold. He said that “digital gold is going to replace gold this decade.”
Following reports that India is considering a ban on cryptocurrencies, the MicroStrategy executive took to Twitter for some free advice:
#Bitcoin is Digital Property and is going to be adopted as a Store of Value asset in every nation that allows citizens to own private property. A #Stablecoin is Digital Currency for use as a Medium of Exchange and will be issued by chartered banks.https://t.co/bfbm2Yplk6

On Friday Friday, Saylor reiterated his stance that Bitcoin is a stronger alternative than gold, stating that it “is the only property you can truly own, as well as the first technology capable of granting property rights to everyone on earth”:
#Bitcoin is the only property you can truly own, as well as the first technology capable of granting property rights to everyone on earth. In time, we will come to understand that it is concentrated energy in digital form and critical to the progression of our civilization.
