In case you missed it, their discussion highlights how businesses can strategically leverage Bitcoin amid what is described as the ideal time to jump in on the Bitcoin bandwagon.
Marcus provides context by reflecting on the perfect storm currently unfolding in the financial world. “We knew it was going to be big because of the four-year cycle. And we’re in that last part of the cycle due to the halving, which happened earlier this year. Only half the amount of Bitcoins are being released into the market through the miners. That being the case, there is going to be scarcity. We always knew this.”
He further explains why this cycle is different: “This is the perfect wave to ride. It’s just incredible… all the other cycles were just retail people like you and me putting in whatever—US$2,000, US$20,000. These institutions are coming in with hundreds of millions, some even billions.”
Strategizing with Bitcoin
Roger and Marcus discuss actionable strategies with Bitcoin, with Roger highlighting how businesses like MicroStrategy have paved and continues to promote the way: “Michael Saylor was given, what, five minutes to present to the Microsoft board why they should even think about investing in Bitcoin. And he stacked 60 to 70 slides in three minutes to make the case.”
Marcus offers his thoughts on Saylor: “So he has a fiduciary responsibility towards the shareholders not to allow his money or their money, the shareholders money, to just go to zero… and now US$42 billion is his strategy.”
Roger also shares how Genius Group applied its own Bitcoin strategy. “We didn’t have a board that was blockchain and crypto savvy. Now we do. That made a huge difference,” he explains. “The moment there was a change in the [US] administration, it just changed everything. I think that’s what really triggered the bull run happening at the moment.”
Roger stressed on the urgency for companies to act: “If we believe that Bitcoin can get to US$1 million, then a thousand Bitcoin is US$1 billion of asset value. And for a small cap, where just getting to the US$100 million to US$200 million is one thing, to actually then already be sitting on a treasury that’s going to outperform the company.”
“So no matter how hard we work, the treasury will actually work harder.”
