Michael Saylor has proposed that the US government purchase up to 25% of Bitcoin’s total supply by 2035. According to Saylor, creating a Strategic Bitcoin Reserve is key to securing the nation’s economic future.
Saylor’s Strategic Bitcoin Proposal
Strategy founder Michael Saylor presented his new strategy document at the White House Crypto Summit on March 7. Saylor stated, “Acquire 5-25% of the Bitcoin network in trust for the nation through consistent, programmatic daily purchases between 2025 and 2035.” According to the document, the US government should never sell its Bitcoin and could generate $10 trillion annually from its Strategic Bitcoin Reserve by 2045.

Saylor also mentioned that the US Treasury and Commerce Department would develop “budget-neutral” strategies to fund these acquisitions without adding costs to taxpayers.
On the same day, Donald Trump signed an executive order establishing a Strategic Bitcoin Reserve and Digital Asset Stockpile, initially funded with crypto assets seized in criminal cases. While the order does not include an immediate plan to purchase more Bitcoin, detailed acquisition strategies are expected to be announced soon.
What Does 25% Supply Mean?
If the US government acquires 25% of Bitcoin’s total supply, it would hold approximately 5.25 million BTC. This figure far exceeds the 5% target proposed in the Bitcoin Act by Wyoming Senator Cynthia Lummis in July 2024.
Meanwhile, Saylor has continued to grow Strategy’s Bitcoin holdings. In February, he purchased an additional $2 billion worth of BTC, raising the company’s total to 500,000 BTC. This acquisition was funded by a $2 billion senior convertible note offering.
