Michael Saylor, cofounder and executive manager of MicroStrategy business intelligence firm famous for its Bitcoin strategy, has issued a statement as the world’s flagship cryptocurrency, BTC, reached a new all-time high several hours ago.
Saylor issued a Bitcoin-moon-themed tweet as the digital gold almost reached $107,000.
Bitcoin prints new ATH, Saylor reacts bullishly
Michael Saylor’s tweet traditionally contains an AI-generated image of himself, but this time, it features him as an astronaut who landed on the moon and placed an orange flag with a Bitcoin logo on it. The Earth is also partly visible in the background in space.
“I will see you on the moon. #Bitcoin,” Saylor tweeted.
According to CoinMarketCap data, seven hours ago, BTC smashed a new record peak of $106,488. It was possible thanks to a roughly 3.58% price surge over the past 24 hours as Bitcoin went up from the $102,900 zone.
By now, however, Bitcoin has shed some of its overnight gains and is currently changing hands at $104,938 per coin.
The Bitcoin community, in the comments, responded to Saylor’s tweet, sharing their excitement and bullish enthusiasm. “Thank you for bringing us along with you...I will see you on Mars. #Bitcoin.”
Speaking of Saylor’s company MicroStrategy, which holds roughly $41.5 billion worth of Bitcoin, its share price has added 4.2% today, and MSTR is now trading at $408.67 per share.
In a tweet published on Sunday, Saylor highlighted the regular recent Bitcoin purchases made by his company by sharing a screenshot from the SaylorTracker website, which monitors MicroStrategy Bitcoin buys. The three most recent acquisitions (big green dots) stand right next to each other, unlike the previous ones. “Is SaylorTracker.com missing a green dot?” Saylor tweeted.

Michael Saylor reveals "Bitcoin target" for all buyers
In a tweet issued on Friday, Saylor unveiled the Bitcoin amount that basically constitutes the goal of all those who are after BTC. He clarified that this is the daily amount of Bitcoin produced by miners on a daily basis, which is $45 million worth of BTC: “We are all competing for $45m in #Bitcoin mined daily.”
That comprises 450 Bitcoins per day worth roughly $100,000 per BTC and equals approximately $45,000,000 worth of this world’s largest cryptocurrency in terms of market cap size.
