The post Even At 0% Bitcoin Returns, MicroStrategy Could Last 40–50 Years, Says Michael Saylor appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com.
Michael Saylor just delivered one of the most extreme defenses of MicroStrategy’s balance-sheet approach, claiming the firm can survive more than four decades even if Bitcoin does nothing. In a June 30 interview with the NewEraFinancePodcast, highlighted in a recent WuBlockchain summary, Saylor said MSTR could cover its interest for 30–40 years without any adjustments, and potentially 40–50 years with refinancing. No crypto rally required. That framing directly counters the loudest objection to MicroStrategy’s treasury model—that it only works in a bull market. Saylor’s arithmetic rewrites the risk equation for a firm that holds roughly $30 billion in Bitcoin against convertible debt. He wants the market to price longevity, not just the next halving. The Math Behind the 40-Year Claim MicroStrategy’s capital structure blends fixed-rate convertible notes wit

Zschach’s latest remarks reinforce his long-standing skepticism toward Ripple and XRP. Former SWIFT Chief Innovation Officer Tom Zschach has dismissed claims that the global financial messaging network plans to support or integrate XRP. The rumors spread after an XRP community post suggested that SWIFT would support public digital assets like XRP instead of creating its own cryptocurrency. Zschach responded with a short but direct statement: “Not happening.” His reply pushed back against claims that SWIFT planned to work with XRP-based payment infrastructure rather than compete with it.

Bitcoin climbed above $64,200 in early trading on Friday, the 10th of July, strengthening its recovery even as Strategy sold Bitcoin at a loss. Holding above this level into next week could reinforce the recovery. However, the bigger question is who has been selling into the rally, and at what price. Strategy’s recent disposals weighed on sentiment. Even so, its average acquisition price remains well above that of retail investors on Binance. That gap shifts attention away from Strategy and toward retail holders, who now sit comfortably in profit and may choose to sell into strength. Did Strategy’s Bitcoin sales really matter? Strategy recently announced plans to sell part of its Bitcoin [BTC] holdings through its Digital Credit Capital Framework. The company said the proceeds would fund dividend payments and share repurchases. On the 6th of July, Strategy sol
