Today, Michael Saylor has also suggested a bold transformation in the U.S. economic framework by replacing gold with BTC as a reserve asset. In the upcoming episode of the Galaxy Brains podcast, Saylor dismissed gold as a “shiny dead rock” and proposed an ambitious strategy to enhance the United States’ global economic dominance through cryptocurrency.

“If you want to elevate the U.S.’s economic leadership in the world, there are two very simple strategies,” Saylor said. “Dump the gold and buy Bitcoin.”

He suggested that substituting gold with BTC as a strategic reserve asset could enable the U.S. to undermine gold, which is held by competing nations. He highlighted the the cryptocurrency’s significant growth potential.
