Bitcoin bull Michael Saylor has shared some thoughts regarding how the digital asset intersects with the economy. Saylor has always been a big fan of bitcoin and has never been shy to share his thoughts on its future. MicroStrategy, the firm on which Saylor serves as CEO, possesses the largest bitcoin holdings of any publicly-traded company. Saylor himself has a personal stake in the asset and has been very vocal about it.<\/p>\n
This week, the CEO was on the Tucker Carson Today<\/a> show on Fox News and talked about bitcoin with Carson. Saylor presented a broken-down explanation of bitcoin in an effort to help the average person understand its importance to the economy.<\/p>\n Related Reading |\u00a0Report Shows Institutional Investors Are Abandoning Bitcoin For Altcoins<\/a><\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n Saylor appeared on the show with host Tucker Carson to talk in-depth about pertinent issues that have arisen in regards to the economy. Particularly curious about cryptocurrencies, Carson asked the CEO for an explanation of Bitcoin, given his personal and professional stake in the digital asset. Saylor took the route of comparisons as he used the human body to explain its importance.<\/p>\n Firstly, Saylor explained that currency was to the economy was blood was to the human body. In other words, the economy would not be able to survive if there was no functioning currency in it. Going forward, he said that money was important to the currency the way oxygen was to the blood. Saylor then compared the printing of money to sucking the oxygen out of a room.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Continuing to suck the oxygen out of the currency by way of printing money irresponsibly would collapse the economy, said the CEO, or worse, plunge it back into \u201cStone Age barter\u201d, making the economy about 100 times less efficient. So what is the fix for this?<\/p>\n Saylor pointed out that so many countries in the world have collapsed currencies and the U.S. dollar is currently serving as the reserve currency of the world. This means that all of the other over 160 currencies in the world are weaker compared to the U.S. dollar. This has not been a problem in the past. However, the dollar itself is getting weaker due to the massive amount of it being printed \u2013 \u201cthe oxygen is getting sucked out of the room.\u201d<\/p>\nSucking Life Out Of The Economy<\/h2>\n
