What is the Michael Saylor “strategy” for his Bitcoin company Strategy in 4 words or less? Buy high, sell never? Make fiat holders seeth?
Regardless, Saylor just used the Bitcoin MENA conference in Abu Dhabi to make his most ambitious pitch yet to all those kings, princes, and guys who could buy my family and me 10 times over, arguing that Bitcoin represents a $200Tn opportunity and the foundation for a new era of “digital capital.”

His message landed at a moment when Middle Eastern institutions are rapidly reshaping their investment playbook, pushed by oil diversification mandates. Meanwhile, Saylor also bought another 10k+

Sorry, Bobros, he’s just going to keep buying.
“All the money will come to you,” Saylor told attendees. “Bitcoin-backed financial products open a $200 Tn debt credit market.”

Will The Middle East Buy Bitcoin Price? Michael Saylor’s Pitch
Right now, Strategy is under .9 mNAV. So that means for every share you buy, you get 1.1 BTC equivalent. This means if you buy leveraged Strategy, you get 1.1x the leverage BTC per share – literally free money.
Or at least that’s how it’s “theoretically supposed to work.” According to CoinGecko, Bitcoin’s market value has slipped thirty percent from its October peak, while Glassnode data shows a rise in long-term holder accumulation after the late-year selloff.
The macro backdrop in the Gulf is shifting as well. Recent assessments by the IMF and World Bank for 2026 reaffirm that Saudi Arabia, the UAE, and Qatar are accelerating their alternative-asset mandates, and crypto is increasingly part of that conversation.

Saylor framed Bitcoin as the asset that could anchor the next generation of regional banking products, positioning it as “digital gold” with projected upside in a four to eight-year window.
As it stands:
Circle secured an ADGM license in Abu Dhabi this quarter and announced a regional expansion strategy.
Dubai’s Virtual Assets Regulatory Authority added new capital requirements for custodians after a surge in institutional inquiries.
Qatar Investment Authority is reviewing digital asset policy frameworks following the passage of spot Bitcoin ETF programs in Asia.
These developments mirror rising energy-market pressure. Brent crude’s slide toward the mid-seventies, shown in FRED’s latest energy series, has increased urgency for Gulf states to diversify away from hydrocarbons.

Michael Saylor’s strategy toward BTC will either backfire spectacularly or make him the top one in the world. At least it’s entertaining.
All of this comes as his company’s Strategy faces an existential index risk. With the stock’s long-standing valuation premium gone, MSCI is evaluating whether to classify the firm as a digital asset treasury company. A reclassification would force between $2.8 and $8.8 Bn of passive outflows. Moreover, with the Fed making rate cuts and positive US economic data, it’s a pivotal time for BTC.
