Michael Saylor, founder of MicroStrategy, has predicted Bitcoin will hit $1,000,000 per coin. The forecast, made this week, sets a target ten times above where the cryptocurrency already trades in 2026 — past the $100,000 milestone. Saylor's call is one of the most aggressive long-term price targets from a major corporate Bitcoin holder.
The $1 million call
Saylor's prediction isn't new in direction — he's been bullish for years — but the specific $1 million figure is his most ambitious public target yet. He didn't give a precise time frame, framing it as a long-term trajectory. The statement positions Bitcoin's growth as still in its early innings, even after a decade-plus of gains.
Bitcoin has already broken past $100,000 this year, a level many thought would take longer. That rally has fueled fresh optimism among holders. Saylor's $1 million bet implies a roughly tenfold increase from today's prices. Whether the broader market shares that conviction is an open question — but MicroStrategy's founder has been one of the most vocal corporate advocates for the asset.
What it's based on
The facts provided don't detail Saylor's reasoning, but the prediction aligns with his established thesis: that Bitcoin will absorb a growing share of global store-of-value demand. He has previously argued that its fixed supply and network effects make it a superior asset over time. The $1 million figure may reflect that long-term compounding view.
No timeline has been attached to the call. For now, the market is watching whether momentum can carry Bitcoin beyond its current highs.
