Shopify.com setup Bitcoin doesn't warn people before it reprices. It just runs out of available supply. And by the time most people realize what changed, the easy coins already gone. What's happening right now should make that very clear. Let me show you. $100 trillion. That's where Michael Sailor says bitcoin is headed. And When Saudi state TV asks how much Bitcoin their $930 billion sovereign wealth fund should own, Sailor's answer all of it. Let that sink in. Not 1% or 5%. All of it. Because while most people still think bitcoin adoption looks like retail buyers grabbing fractions a coin. America just proposed buying 1 million bitcoin 200,000 per year over the course of five years and huddling for 20 years. And Coinbase CEO says all major nations will eventually pass bitcoin clarity one by one. He says eventually 1 billion people will buy in. Now ask yourself what happens when sovereign wealth funds, governments, banks, institutions and a billion people will all realize the same thing. There isn't enough. That's when the final supply grab begins. And if you think that sounds extreme, let's do some math. There's only 21 million Bitcoin not all of them. Trade millions already gone. Forever lost, dormant, unavailable. Then we subtract what's already locked up. ETF's corporate treasuries strategy, long term holders who are not selling. Now imagine sovereign buyers joining that same battlefield. Not speculators, not tourists. Strategic hodlers. Because governments don't think in quarters, they're thinking in decades. And once bitcoin becomes a reserve conversation, the framework shifts. This stops being about Price targets, it becomes asset acquisition. That's why Sailor Saudi answer matters. Because all of it sounds ridiculous. Until you realize the people thinking strategically are not asking, is Bitcoin volatile? Who cares? Sailor says he'll keep buying even at $8 million per bitcoin. Think about that. Because that tells you how strategic buyers frame this asset. Not as too expensive, as too important to miss. They're asking, how much of the hardest asset can we realistically secure before our competitors do? And Coinbase's CEO saying all major nations will eventually pass Bitcoin. Clarity. That matters too. Because regulation isn't the story. What regulation enables is the story. Access, institutional participation, treasury participation, bank participation, scale. And once friction drops, the buying accelerates. Because most people assume adoption is slow, linear, predictable. But strategic transitions don't happen that way. They happen quietly. Then suddenly, a few major buyers move, others notice. Then comes imitation, then panic, and then all gone. Because scarcity doesn't need universal adoption. It only needs enough powerful buyers moving faster than available supply. And here's where people still underestimate the speed. Bitcoin doesn't need every government buying just a few. It doesn't need a billion people buying whole coins. Besides, they can't. That's why most never will. But that's the point. Because scarcity doesn't break when everyone arrives. It breaks when enough capital arrives, chasing too little supply. A sovereign wealth fund doesn't think like retail. A bank allocation doesn't think like retail. A strategic reserve don't think like retail. They don't ask, is this a good entry? They ask, how much can we secure before someone else does. And once that psychology spreads, price stops behaving like a normal market. Because normal markets assume we willing sellers Bitcoin's problem. The strongest hands don't want to sell. They want more. That's why ETF inflows matter. That's why strategy matters. Sailor alone now controls 843,738 bitcoin. That's why sovereign reserve discussions matter. Because every serious buyer shrinks. The liquid float. And shrinking float with expanding demand is how vertical repricing happens. Not slowly, suddenly. And if Coinbase is right about 1 billion eventual buyers, most current price anchors are laughably broken. Because this isn't a niche asset anymore. This is global monetary competition. That's why Kathy Wood says, sell gold for Bitcoin. That's why Russia's banking giant is recommending up to 7% allocations. That's why America is debating a strategic Bitcoin reserve. That's why Sailor says $100 trillion Bitcoin network. Because once the world realizes Bitcoin isn't competing for a speculative slice but for global savings, the repricing doesn't happen politely, it happens violently. So the real question isn't will Bitcoin get adopted? The real question is how much Bitcoin is gone before the world realizes the final supply grab began.

If you think that framing sounds extreme, good, because now let's look at the receipts. And this is where things get interesting. Check this out. Michael Saylor was asked by Saudi state TV how much Bitcoin their 930 billion dollar sovereign wealth fund they should own. His response? All of it. All in baby. And you already know there's a lot of money from The Middle east, it's that old school oil money and they're embracing bitcoin. Sovereign wealth funds are coming for the bitcoin. That same finite supply that Sailor and Blackrock and Ark invest and all the big bitcoin whales are going after. Sailor just said Bitcoin's going to a hundred trillion dollar network. He says they'll keep buying at even $8 million per coin. Check this out.

I think we'll buy it at 100,000, we'll buy to 200,000, we'll buy it at 500,000, we'll buy it At a million, 2 million, 4 million, 8 million. So it's a very simple business which is just dry bitcoin to millions of dollars. Expand the capital network to $100 trillion, hundreds of trillions of dollars, create trillions of dollars of digital credit.
- [08:47]
A
So there you have it. He's raising trillions of dollars of digital credit and then he's going to roll all that into bitcoin, effectively driving the price of bitcoin to multi millions of do. And that's one company. That's the bigger picture here. We have all these massive corporations and institutions and sovereign wealth funds all fighting for that same finite limited supply bitcoin. So what do you think that's going to do to the game theory in play? It's going to accelerate. And then when you add in the nation state adoption, for example, the big news of the United States with the new strategic Bitcoin reserve bill which is to acquire 1 million bitcoin, that's the game changer. What about Russia, China, the UAE, Saudi Arabia, now 60 billion. Coinbase CEO just said all major nations will pass bitcoin and crypto clarity one by one. All countries will adopt and 1 billion people will buy in.
- [09:42]
C
Once the US passes, hopefully the Clarity Act. I think you'll see the rest of the G20 just one by one every, every year or two like the next one will come down.
- [09:50]
A
What do you think that's likely to do to the bitcoin price by the time this thing accelerates to a billion people across the world all using bitcoin. Where do you think the price will be by that time? Let me know your thoughts fam in the comments. 400 billion dollar Russian banking giant VTB is now recommending up to 7% allocations into Bitcoin. The global bitcoin race is just beginning. Now Sailor updated us here this morning. He says this week we bought bonds, not bitcoin. The bit vaccine is charging so he's buying more bonds to raise more money to be able to buy even more bitcoin. And he's already the largest holder in the world. That's not slowing down. It's only going to continue accelerating. As he has said numerous times, he'll be buying the top forever. Laura Coinbase holds 958,000 Bitcoin. But only 16492 actually belong to them. The rest belong to their clients and ETFs, institutions and retail. Now this is interesting. SpaceX just dropped its S1 filing. Their balance sheet is 18,712 Bitcoin. Meaning the rocket company owns more Bitcoin than the world's biggest crypto exchange. Very fascinating. And that's true. Even Sailor and Black Rock use Coinbase. I believe it's Coinbase prime as their custodian. That's why they hold so much. But it's interesting that the majority of it does not belong to Coinbase and that a company like SpaceX holds more Bitcoin than them. That's why I believe self custody is so important, because Coinbase has become a honey pot for the government. So if the government ever decides Bitcoin's a threat to national security, they just call up Coinbase CEO Mr. Armstrong, hey, it's Trump. The POTUS from the USA. And Bitcoin has become a national security threat. So therefore we must seize that 982,000 bitcoin that you're holding. And they would effortlessly do that, but they cannot confiscate properly self custody bitcoin. That's why I highly recommend you cop yourself a Tangum wallet if you haven't already. Protect your Bitcoin before it's too late. 20 million bitcoin have now officially been mined, meaning there's less than 1 million bitcoin remaining for the next 114 years. The most scarce asset in human history. And at the rate that sailors accumulating bitcoin, right now he's outpacing the daily issuance, which is currently 450 Bitcoin per day. He's doing it by multiples, meaning he's purchasing up four to five times that daily issuance many days, raising enough money from STRC to buy 2,000 bitcoin in a single day. So Sailor alone is going to buy up that entire 1 million supply hands down. He's already said that, you know, various times in interviews. And there's no doubt about it, at the rate he is going, and really let that sink in. Because in 2020, he became the first publicly traded company to put bitcoin on the balance sheet. And so that means in six years he has effectively absorbed over 840,000 Bitcoin. One more example is Larry Fink with Black Rock. In two years, from the time of the ETFs going live, which was January 11th of 2024, he has absorbed on over 820,000 Bitcoin 2 entities, 1.6 million Bitcoin permanently absorbed. Save some bitcoin for us, big dog is all I'm saying. But it's pretty crazy at the rate that the accumulation is accelerating now. Switzerland is now offering 0% capital gains tax on bitcoin and crypto. What other nations in the world have advantageous? 0% capital gains tax on crypto first comes to mind is bitcoin country El Salvador. Another is a Puerto Rico. There's something called Act 60 you guys can look into. Of course, I think Thailand just introduced something with zero percent. I'm highly doubtful that the US will ever implement zero percent capital gains tax on bitcoin. I think if they do do something, it's going to be for minuscule transactions like for cups of coffee, maybe transactions that are 200 or less. Don't think you're never going to have to pay taxes on your crypto if you sell in the future. I just don't believe it. The U. S likes introducing more taxes, let alone reducing taxes. But I know a lot of hopeful people are like trump's gonna eliminate capital gains tax for bitcoin. All I'm saying, don't hold your breath. It's very unlikely. Kathy would just urge everyone to sell their gold and buy bitcoin before it hits 1.5 million. She says I would Peter, shift from gold to bitcoin.
- [14:31]
E
The government confiscated private gold, didn't allow any more private ownership of gold. Gold and money supply collapsed. Now we're not in anything like either of those two worlds and yet gold is where it is. If I were a betting person and I can't give advice necessarily, but I would make a shift from gold into bitcoin.
- [14:54]
A
She makes some excellent points and the big point is gold can be taken away from you or confiscated, unlike properly self custodied bitcoin. Hence grab yourself a tangent wallet today. Now Natalie Brunel just absolutely destroyed bitcoin quantum fud live on fox. She says the hardware does not exist. The threat is not imminent. Bitcoin will just upgrade.
- [15:16]
F
The threat is really not imminent. The hardware right now does not even exist to be able to crack bitcoin and it's several years away. So the industry is really working hard to prepare because Bitcoin can upgrade upgrade through consensus. It's software. And so I think that we're going to solve this problem as an industry, especially with all of these stakeholders, both on the retail level as well as institutional and sovereigns that have gotten into Bitcoin.
- [15:40]
A
Well, there you go. Natalie Brunel single handedly destroyed the FUD narrative. The quantum computers is going to steal all of our bitcoins. Therefore you should continue to stack fiat currency in the bank. What greater savings than fiat monopoly dollars printed by the Illuminati? Not. But yeah, shout out Natalie Brunel. More power to her. I'm a firm believer that Quantum is no threat right now either. We can just upgrade the network whenever we're ready. And if it actually becomes a legitimate threat over the next few years, Adam Back aka Satoshi says it poses no threat for the next 10, 20 years. I say we start preparing soon. But don't let it fudge you out of your position because it's not a Today's episode of Bitcoin News Alerts is brought to you by Progressive Insurance.

now Michael Saylor says keeping your job, avoiding splurges and using long term mortgage debt to buy bitcoins, Bitcoin can lead to 100x returns with Bitcoin potentially worth 13 million by 2045. And this is an interview from Coin Stories. Again with the beautiful Natalie Brunel.
- [17:33]
D
In the year 2045, I think a bitcoins worth $13 million. So every bitcoin that you don't buy is a 13 million dollar cost. That Ferrari that you're going to buy is going to cost you like six Bitcoin. And so it's going to be $100 million Ferrari. Right. If you look out 20 years, buying
- [17:51]
A
a Ferrari today could effectively cost you 20 million in the future of losses, which could have been in bitcoin. And that's just a fact. Bitcoin's the monetizing assets in real time. And besides, cars are not assets to begin with unless you buy a very rare car with very limited production. Just like the scarcity of bitcoin, what makes it so valuable? There's a finite limited supply, but a typical vehicle is probably the worst investment one can make. Meaning vehicles are not good investments. They lose a significant portion of its value as soon as you drive it from the dealership right to your home.
- [18:27]
D
Gone.

A
20%. Even a nice car like a Porsche or something. So bottom line, don't live above your means. Stop keeping up with the Kardashians and be humble and stack sats. And bitcoin being the ultimate savings. If you can huddle for 20 years, like the United States is going to do with their 1 million, potentially 4 or 5 million Bitcoin, you may be able to, you know, transform the wealth of your future generations to come. It all starts with bitcoin and being smart, making smart decisions, knowing bitcoin will continue to cannibalize all these other asset classes as it's doing in real time right now. Now, Eric Trump says with bitcoin, you can transfer 500 million on Sunday with no fees. That's right. That scares the big institutions bank that
- [19:13]
C
I banked with for 25 years. It took me 120 days to go through and know your customer. Right. And you're sitting there saying, why I'm trying to get a wire out, or I'm waiting to receive a wire through the SWIFT system. When you can transfer $500 million with Bitcoin from an iPhone to an iPhone having a wallet address, 11 o' clock on a Sunday night.
- [19:30]
A
Yeah.
- [19:30]
C
You know, for. For no fees. For practically no fees. And that scares a big financial institution.
- [19:35]
A
The forces of evil do not like permissionless. And Bitcoin's 100 permissionless. You can send as much bitcoin as you want. Now, sailors, that bitcoin goes to a million. A strategy can accumulate just 5% of the supply. They currently have over 4% of the supply. Keep that in mind. And he says that 7% is 10 million per coin. Think of us as powering up the network.
- [19:58]
D
If we get to 5% of the network, bitcoin's going to be a million a coin. If I get to seven and a half percent of the network, it'll be 10 million a coin.
- [20:05]
A
All I got to say to $10 million per Bitcoin is send it. But as you can see, bitcoin accumulation is increasing. It's accelerating. From the massive players from Michael Saylor to Larry Fink to Cathie Wood to sovereign wealth funds to nation state adoption, it's happening. So what will happen to the bitcoin price when we tap into hundreds of trillions of dollars worth of pools of capital all flowing into a finite limited asset? Drop it right down below. Legit question. I don't think they'll whack Michael Sailor. He's doing what they want them to do. He's the chosen one they're using to accumulate all the bitcoin. Do you not understand bigger picture? Centralize the bitcoin by these big holders, BlackRock and Sailor. Then confiscate all the non self custody bitcoin. Bitcoin's going to go to millions of dollars per coin. And then in the name of national security, they're going to call Brian Armstrong. We have to confiscate it all in the name of national security and they use Michael Sailor to get all the bitcoin. That's my perspective. What do you guys think? If Michael Sailor says bitcoin is still cheap at $8 million per coin, what price do governments start panic buying? 1 million, 5 million? 10 million.
