Bitcoin’s Next Catalyst Is Days Away

Bitcoin’s Next Catalyst Is Days Away

Q: What do Donald Trump, Michael Saylor, and Edward Snowden have in common?

A: Bitcoin.

When Michael Saylor famously declared Bitcoin (BTC) “the apex property of the human race” in 2021, the world wasn’t ready.

“Bitcoin is property rights,” he explained at the time. “It’s technology to deliver property rights to eight billion people for the first time in the history of the human race and that’s life, liberty, and property.”

The visionary MicroStrategy (MSTR) CEO went all-in on the “offbeat” asset in 2020 and never looked back. Under his watch, MicroStrategy has accumulated 1.078% of all bitcoins in existence, the most of any publicly traded company in the world. Today, those holdings are worth nearly $14.9 billion.

Saylor has taken plenty of heat for his aggressive bullishness on Bitcoin over the years. Crypto has no shortage of critics.

But times have changed.

Next week, the leading U.S. presidential candidate, Donald Trump, will join Saylor in Nashville, TN for the 2024 Bitcoin Conference – and set the stage for Bitcoin’s next big breakout.

Other high-profile names like Robert F. Kennedy Jr., Cathie Wood, and Edward Snowden are rounding out the star-studded lineup of Bitcoin bulls headlining the conference.

A Pivotal Moment in Bitcoin History

Trump’s position on Bitcoin has evolved significantly: He now sees the “digital gold” as a key technology that the U.S. should embrace… before China does.

On his social media platform, Truth Social, Trump even suggested that he would have the government buy Bitcoin to help back the dollar, if elected. And he wants the U.S. to dominate Bitcoin mining.

This bold statement – and any positive remarks he’s set to deliver next week – could significantly impact Bitcoin’s trajectory… especially given the former President’s influence and following.

The anticipation surrounding Trump’s appearance at the conference is already palpable, with Bitcoin rallying nearly 20% off recent lows.

The rally gained even more momentum after Trump survived the recent assassination attempt, adding to the narrative of resilience and strength.

RFK Jr., another prominent political figure who has shown interest in Bitcoin, will also be in attendance. His presence and potential endorsement could further pressure the Biden administration to reconsider its stance on the cryptocurrency.

Will the Biden administration take notice? Will Trump’s bold claims about integrating Bitcoin into the government’s financial strategy push the current administration to rethink its approach?

These questions loom large as we head into the Nashville Bitcoin Conference one week from today.

All eyes are on Trump – and Bitcoin.

Until next time,
