Michael Saylor's aggressive bitcoin acquisitions have reignited conversations about the breadth of crypto's latest rally.

Host of CryptosRus, George Tung, broke down Saylor’s latest purchase and the broader implications for bitcoin’s future. Saylor’s company, MicroStrategy, announced Monday it acquired 55,500 bitcoin for $5.4 billion, bringing its total holdings to 386,000 BTC ($36 billion) and raising questions about concentration of ownership within the bitcoin ecosystem.

“Saylor likes to say he’ll buy the top forever,” Tung remarked. “He just purchased at an average price of $97,862 per bitcoin, significantly raising his average cost to $56,761. He’s been buying like a madman, but he knows bitcoin is going to go much higher—$100,000, $200,000, even a million dollars eventually.” Tung highlighted that Saylor’s moves position MicroStrategy as a significant force in bitcoin ownership, rivaling even institutional giants like BlackRock.

For what its worth, fellow technology company Semler Scientific took a page out of the MicroStrategy playbook to announce another bitcoin buy on Monday as well. The Nasdaq-listed company announced it had bought $29 million worth of bitcoin as well.

Tung emphasized the unique nature of Saylor's strategy, noting, “BlackRock’s ETF involves a mix of their own and others’ buys, but Saylor’s purchases are solely his company’s efforts. He’s raising debt and buying bitcoin nonstop. It’s estimated he could control over 4% of bitcoin’s entire supply within a decade.” This, Tung suggested, poses a potential conflict with bitcoin’s decentralized nature, even as the community currently supports Saylor as a champion of the cryptocurrency.

Despite Saylor’s popularity, Tung questioned the long-term impact of such concentrated holdings. “One man and one company controlling 4% of bitcoin — it goes against bitcoin’s decentralization thesis. So far, no one has turned against him, but it’s a valid concern. The same applies to BlackRock; while their involvement boosts prices now, their control of 4–10% of supply long-term could be troubling.”

For now, Tung concluded, the bitcoin community remains optimistic. “Whether it’s MicroStrategy or BlackRock, their buying sprees create a supply shock, pushing bitcoin’s price higher. In the short term, it’s all about winners. Long term? We’ll see.”
