Is Bitcoin really the future of money, or is it just hype? Michael Saylor, the executive chairman of MicroStrategy, joins Tom Bilyeu to explain why Bitcoin is not only the solution to inflation but the single greatest opportunity for building generational wealth. Saylor reveals the math and strategy behind his prediction of Bitcoin hitting $13 million per coin, how capital flows like energy through a system, and why it’s time for governments and individuals alike to recapitalize using Bitcoin. This is not just a conversation about cryptocurrency—it’s about understanding the fundamental economics of wealth, value, and a digital-first future.

0:00.0	I'm Tom Billu and this is Impact Theory. Bitcoin just hit 100K and let me tell you, we are standing
0:06.4	at the edge of a financial revolution. And if you don't understand what's happening right now,
0:10.7	you're not just going to get left behind, you are going to miss out on one of the biggest
0:14.0	opportunities of all of our lifetimes. My guest today is the ultimate trailblazer in the world
0:19.3	of Bitcoin. He's not just predicting the future.
0:21.8	He's creating it. And he's led his company micro strategy to become the largest corporate
0:26.5	holder of Bitcoin making moves that most people would not dare. It is dizzying to watch what
0:31.6	this man has done. And if you're ready to understand what's been happening to Bitcoin since the election
0:36.0	what's coming next, and most

1:03.1	But now the question becomes, how does Bitcoin go from where we're at it, a little over
1:07.8	100K to the $13 million, a coin that you consider the base case.
1:14.6	Yeah, I think I've always said it's either something or it's nothing. If it's embraced as an
1:24.4	institutional asset, if it's legitimized as an asset, then it's not going to zero.
1:31.3	And if it's not going to zero, it's going to a million.
1:34.9	And I think the short answer to your question is education.
1:41.2	And with education comes adoption.
