Strategy\u2019s Michael Saylor Met With Middle East Sovereign Wealth Funds to Pitch Bitcoin-Backed Credit<\/a><\/p>\n

<\/div>\n

Strategy Executive Chairman Michael Saylor<\/a> said today that he has met with \u201cevery sovereign wealth fund in the Middle East,\u201d as he continues to promote Bitcoin-backed financial structures to some of the world\u2019s largest pools of capital.<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019ve been meeting with sovereign wealth funds, banks, fund managers, regulators\u2014about 50 to 100 investors across every jurisdiction,\u201d Saylor said.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n

Saylor said his message was simple: Bitcoin is digital capital, or digital gold, and digital credit builds on it by stripping out volatility to generate yield\u2014offering cash flow now instead of waiting decades for capital to appreciate.<\/p>\n

Speaking at the Bitcoin MENA conference<\/a>, the Strategy founder outlined a framework designed to convert digital capital into credit, arguing that Bitcoin can underpin yield-generating products that outperform traditional fixed income while reducing volatility.\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u201cThere is a strategy that exists to convert capital into credit,\u201d Saylor said, describing instruments that could deliver returns well above government bonds or bank deposits.<\/p>\n

Saylor framed the approach as a multi-layered allocation strategy, ranging from direct exposure to Bitcoin, to Bitcoin-backed credit, and ultimately equity in treasury-focused companies.\u00a0<\/p>\n

He argued that investors uncomfortable with Bitcoin\u2019s price swings could still achieve \u201ctwo to four times\u201d the yield of traditional credit markets through digital credit products, while more risk-tolerant investors could seek amplified exposure through equity.<\/p>\n

Saylor: Banks can custody Bitcoin<\/h2>\n

Beyond investment products, Saylor emphasized the role banks could play by custodying Bitcoin and extending credit on top of it.\u00a0<\/p>\n

He said integrating digital capital into regulated banking systems could attract trillions of dollars in global capital, particularly as many major banks still do not support Bitcoin custody or lending.<\/p>\n

Saylor also pointed<\/a> to low-yield environments in Japan and Europe as prime targets for adoption.\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u201cI think this is something the Japanese market will really, really like,\u201d he said, referencing demand for assets that \u201chave a stable price and pay yield that is far higher than they\u2019re used to seeing.\u201d<\/p>\n

He argued that dissatisfaction with near-zero bank yields is already pushing investors into corporate bonds and private credit, creating an opening for Bitcoin-backed alternatives.<\/p>\n

The long-term opportunity lies in creating regulated digital bank accounts powered by Bitcoin-backed credit, which he believes could reposition early adopters as global financial hubs.\u00a0<\/p>\n

He suggested that jurisdictions willing to embrace the model<\/a> could become the \u201cSwitzerland of the 21st century\u201d by attracting vast amounts of international capital.<\/p>\n

Earlier today, Strategy announced<\/a> it purchased 10,624 bitcoin for about $963 million, raising its total holdings to 660,624 BTC, worth roughly $60.5 billion at current prices near $91,500.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The purchase, funded primarily through equity sales, marks the company\u2019s largest weekly bitcoin acquisition since July and signals renewed access to capital.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Saylor has pointed to the firm\u2019s BTC Yield metric of 24.7% in 2025 and defended Strategy as an operating company, not a fund, amid MSCI index concerns.\u00a0<\/a><\/p>\n
