This is a claim from Michael Saylor's own account, posted 20 October 2026 at 12:37 UTC. The video attached to it isn't visible to me, so I can't tell what chart or context he's pointing to. "It's going up forever" is an opinion, not a forecast anyone can test, and no asset has risen without limit. Bitcoin has fallen more than 70% from its peaks in past cycles, including 2018 and 2022.
Saylor is executive chairman of Strategy, which holds a large bitcoin treasury, so his view comes with a stake in the outcome. For a more measured view, JPMorgan's first range for bitcoin returns projects about 10% a year over the next decade, ahead of stocks, bonds and gold, as the Herald reported today (JPMorgan sees 10% annual bitcoin returns). Projections like that are estimates with wide error bars, not guarantees. For the current market backdrop, see Bitcoin rises to about $82,700 as stocks rebound.
