Bitcoin has recovered above $66,000, with Strategy Executive Chairman Michael Saylor making one of his most ambitious price predictions to date.
Bitcoin (BTC) Price
Speaking at the BTC Prague 2026 conference, Saylor said Bitcoin would move from roughly $70,000 to $700,000 and eventually reach $7 million per coin. “Bitcoin goes from 70,000 to 700,000 to $7 million a coin. It’s inevitable,” he said.
His keynote came as Bitcoin climbed more than 11% from its early June lows. On-chain analytics firm Santiment linked the move to a finalized U.S.-Iran peace agreement, which eased concerns around energy prices and geopolitical risk and pushed investors back into risk assets.
Bitcoin crossed $66,600 during the rally, while the total crypto market cap moved beyond $2.36 trillion.
Saylor’s prediction is rooted in a simple argument: most of the world’s wealth is not in Bitcoin. He estimates Bitcoin currently holds around $1 trillion of an estimated $1,000 trillion in global capital. That means roughly 99.9% of economic wealth sits outside the network.
A large portion of that untapped capital sits with traditional financial institutions. Saylor pointed to banks, wealth managers, pension funds, and insurance companies, saying they control roughly $156 trillion that is largely restricted from Bitcoin exposure.
Strategy also disclosed a fresh Bitcoin purchase of approximately $100 million, extending its position as the largest corporate holder of the cryptocurrency.
Saylor also highlighted a growing range of financial products tied to Bitcoin. He described digital credit and digital money instruments as tools that are pulling new capital into the network by offering familiar structures like yield and fixed income.
Japanese investment firm Metaplanet has also announced plans for Bitcoin-backed yield products in Japan, adding to the list of companies building financial services around the asset.
Strategy’s own STRC security was described by Saylor as a short-duration, high-yield fixed-income product for U.S. investors. He also called Strategy’s stock an “amplified Bitcoin,” offering greater exposure to price movements in the cryptocurrency.
Strategy’s most recent $100 million Bitcoin purchase was disclosed shortly after Saylor’s keynote at BTC Prague 2026.
