When Strategy Meets Soft, Verge For The Crypto Revolution

• Saylor pitched Bitcoin to Microsoft’s directors, calling it a key to wealth preservation.
• He argued BTC adoption could improve Microsoft’s stock price and metaverse initiatives.
• The proposal included integrating BTC with cash flows and dividends for market advantage.

MicroStrategy (MSTR) founder Saylor called Bitcoin a “digital capital” during his recent 3-minute presentation to Microsoft’s Board of Directors. Saylor also mentioned it as the most important digital transformation of the 21st century. He emphasized that global wealth distribution currently faces major risks, with trillions of dollars of capital being depleted annually. According to him, BTC is a superior form of capital preservation.

Through the presentation, Saylor stated that Microsoft would have several financial advantages. He emphasized that purchasing BTC would be more beneficial than stock buybacks or holding bonds. He particularly highlighted how current bond holdings could potentially undermine Microsoft’s options market. Saylor presented a compelling case that BTC integration could add “hundreds of dollars to the stock price.”

Further, the presentation stressed the growing institutional and political support for Bitcoin. He also suggested that Bitcoin adoption could speed up the company’s growth and reduce shareholder risk. Drawing comparisons between traditional and digital asset methods, Saylor stated that it will be Microsoft’s calling to either “cling to the past” or “embrace the future.” 

The proposal extends beyond mere investment strategy into comprehensive technological integration. By leveraging blockchain, Microsoft could improve its position in Web3 development and infrastructure. This will strengthen its metaverse initiatives and expand cloud computing services. Besides, it could ramp up digital payment systems through blockchain.

Saylor’s model proposes converting various financial instruments into Bitcoin. These include cash flows, dividends, buybacks, and debt. This approach suggests potential synergies between Microsoft’s existing technology stack and cryptocurrency integration.Following Saylor’s tweet of the presentation, an analyst stated that integrating blockchain is crucial for future-proofing Microsoft’s technological leadership. He further added that more focus should be directed to BTC and ETH.
