According to U.Today, Michael Saylor, founder of MicroStrategy and a prominent Bitcoin advocate, recently shared a significant message with the global Bitcoin community on the X social media platform. This message appears to be a reaction to Bitcoin's recent price surge, which saw the cryptocurrency recover to the $61,000 mark.

Saylor posted an AI-generated image depicting himself as a university professor making calculations on a blackboard. Accompanying the image, he tweeted, 'By my calculations, bitcoin is going up forever.' This statement came after Bitcoin experienced a 5.43% increase, rising from $58,000 to just above $61,000 within 24 hours. However, after surpassing $61,000, Bitcoin faced a slight rebound, dropping 1.1% to trade at around $60,500.

Michael Saylor is well-known for his bold predictions about Bitcoin's price. He has previously stated that MicroStrategy intends to hold its Bitcoin for at least 10 years and advises holders to keep their Bitcoin in cold wallets indefinitely. Earlier this year, Saylor tweeted that Bitcoin could be taken to one's grave, emphasizing its portability compared to cash or gold. He also strongly advises against selling Bitcoin, especially during price drops.

In related news, large Bitcoin whales have been actively accumulating the cryptocurrency. According to data from on-chain aggregator Santiment, whales holding between 100 and 1,000 BTC have accumulated 94,700 BTC over the past six weeks, equivalent to approximately $5.72 billion. The Santiment team noted that while market uncertainty has led many traders to sell, key players continue to acquire Bitcoin from those with 'paper hands.'
