David Seroy makes the case that bitcoin:native can become the lowest-counterparty-risk collateral in the world. “Digital gold” caps Bitcoin's upside. “Digital credit” doesn’t. Think mortgage-backed securities, then treasuries — except this time the collateral is Bitcoin, not trust in an institution. “That is one very viable use case of... show more

. Michael Saylor explains why Strategy's real business isn't Bitcoin - it's selling credit to people who want the upside without the bumpy ride "We're like a reserve bank. We have a reserve asset - Bitcoin. We will sell credit. We are stripping the performance and the risk off of the bitcoin." "Bitcoin's got 40 vol and it's got high performance. But most of the world wants zero vol. What they want is a bank account that pays them 10 or 11%." "For every dollar of equity capital of Bitcoin that we have - digital capital - you can create 10 to $0.20 of credit. We've sold about $10 billion of credit. We'll create $20 billion of digital credit over the next year, then grow that 30 to 50% a year."

.Morpho 🦋's Midnight could become a machine for pricing trust. Paul Frambot 🦋: “There’s a module in the protocol that lets you express why you should be trusted.” “That could be collateral, but that could also be your identity, your receivables, whatever.” “A piece of code is not here to give credit to people. Credit is complex.” “The key is externalizing the rate and externalizing the risk, such that the market can price any type of risk.”

Cathie Wood Cathie Wood of ARK Invest: Bitcoin was declining relative to gold. It now appears to be bottoming. Gold itself is declining. She is staying bullish. The Bitcoin-to-gold ratio chart she presented on July 2 shows the ratio has held at a floor while gold moved lower. Wood reads this as the start of a resumption of the "volatile but broad uptrend" visible on the long-term chart. The macro context behind the call: in a deflationary tech regime with falling rates, Bitcoin benefits as a risk-on digital store of value. The rotation from gold to Bitcoin is consistent with the broader ARK thesis on financial innovation. Michael Saylor Michael Saylor has made the structural case for Bitcoin over gold more forcefully than anyone - argues Bitcoin's fixed supply and digital properties make it the superior store of value over any multi-year horizon.

WHY SAYLOR'S DIGITAL CREDIT IS BREAKING EVERYONE'S BRAINS The legacy credit system is held together by optimism, spreadsheets, and a blind belief that committees with zero accountability will somehow maintain stability while the currency melts in real time. Meanwhile, Saylor strolls onto the field in a black suit like the world’s calmest financial arsonist and builds an entirely new credit architecture on top of an asset that cannot be printed, diluted, or bailed out. Digital credit is the part where the old system finally realizes the ground beneath it was never solid. Bitcoin backed collateral exposes every weakness they tried to hide. The risk models fail. The ratings frameworks fall apart. The yield curves stop making sense. This video is the full breakdown. Why the entire system is about to reprice around harder collateral whether it wants to or not!

#Bitcoin is the world’s most popular investment asset. It is novel, digital, global, unique, and uncorrelated to traditional risk assets. That makes it a natural addition to the portfolio of a responsible investor.

Michael Saylor: Investors Have Lost Confidence in Ethereum On June 12, 2026, at the Bitcoin Corporate Day event, Michael Saylor Michael Saylor discussed Bitcoin's rising market dominance. He stated that, excluding stablecoins, Bitcoin's dominance in the crypto market has climbed from around 41% in 2021 to nearly 70%. Saylor believes that market confidence in Ethereum has collapsed, and it is now locked in an intense competition with other tokens like Solana and BNB. This ongoing battle has exhausted their monetary premium, meaning these tokens will have to rely solely on their utility to survive in the future. He stated that the market evolution over the past 12 months has further established Bitcoin's position as the dominant digital monetary network, solidified its attribute as digital capital, and proven that digital credit is a viable concept.

LYN ALDEN: Bitcoin is trading like a risk on asset, but has risk off properties. The longer term use case for BTC is that it’s the main protocol for digital money. It’s got the network effect and the security, but it takes time to grow and get large.
