Michael Saylor delivered a landmark speech at Bitcoin 2025 in Las Vegas, breaking down why most of his past ideas failed—and why Bitcoin is the foundation of every financial strategy that works today. In this talk, he shares: — Bitcoin has a 90% chance of success over the next 5 years — Companies holding Bitcoin see 30–60% annual IRR — Every lasting financial idea must be built on Bitcoin — Capital access matters more than personal opinion This is not just another pro-Bitcoin speech. It’s a strategic wake-up call from the man who bet everything on the hardest money in history. 00:55 What if Bitcoin isn’t just money… but capital itself? 02:05 Can Bitcoin really outpace gold—and leave Peter Schiff behind? 03:45 What does it really mean to believe in Bitcoin? How do you feed the fire? 04:47 "When your entire family understands Bitcoin, you're much more powerful". 05:20 Could your child's financial future start with one Bitcoin decision today? 06:13 "You need to master artificial intelligence". 07:40 "I can't afford to spend hundreds of thousands of dollars on lawyers." 08:35 Why Saylor gives his legal team just 2–5 days to act 09:25 What if 2025 isn’t about being smart, but understanding this one thing? 10:00 "Construct the legal entities that scale your strategy and protect your assets". 11:25 "The lawyers are too slow. They're too expensive. And you would punt? Not this year". 12:10 What are the ten best states in the United States for people who hold Bitcoin? 13:27 "If you go on safari, don't wrestle with the lions". 14:00 "You don't have to topple your least favorite government in the world". 15:35 The most powerful wealth engine? It’s not what you think. 16:50 What’s more powerful than an individual? 17:50 Why incorporating might be the key to unlocking your full value 18:00 Just because you can doesn’t mean you should — Saylor’s 60-year lesson 18:30 "Most of my great ideas didn't work out the way I thought they would". 18:45 Why 90% of strategies fail—and what’s the 10% that doesn’t? 19:08 Every financial idea built on Bitcoin wins—really? 19:30 30–60% IRR every year? That’s what Bitcoin companies are seeing 20:35 My company went from a $1 billion enterprise to a $100 billion enterprise 20:55 Could stacking sats make you the richest dentist on your block? 21:35 From $200K to $3M: Saylor’s playbook for Bitcoin-fueled wealth 22:50 "I'm a retiree. I want a guaranteed 8%. I don't want to lose my money". 24:35 What financial weapons do public companies have that you don’t? 25:05 Can banks really turn $1M into $20M?
