The spotlight in the financial world is shifting, and Bitcoin is taking center stage — with MicroStrategy leading the charge.

Michael Saylor, co-founder of MicroStrategy, recently shared data showing that Bitcoin’s performance is now outpacing even the biggest tech companies in the world, known as the “Magnificent 7” — including Tesla, Nvidia, and others. Instead of riding the hype around artificial intelligence or cloud computing, Saylor believes Bitcoin is the real engine behind serious growth.

His analysis shows MicroStrategy standing out when comparing open interest to market cap. In simple terms, investors are paying more attention to Bitcoin-linked companies than traditional tech giants. MicroStrategy, which has heavily invested in Bitcoin, is far ahead in this space.

What really caught attention was long-term returns. Since adopting a Bitcoin-first strategy, MicroStrategy has delivered an annual return of over 90%. That’s better than Nvidia’s 72%, Tesla’s 32%, and far higher than most other tech companies. Saylor’s message is clear: Bitcoin isn’t just another investment — it’s changing the rules of what success looks like in today’s markets.

Thomas Lee from Fundstrat agrees. He described MicroStrategy as a kind of “granny shot ETF” — a simple way for regular investors to gain Bitcoin exposure without directly owning any crypto. According to him, Bitcoin and Ethereum are now attracting more money than AI or cybersecurity investments.

This trend isn’t limited to just one company. Corporations around the world are quietly building up massive Bitcoin reserves. Together, their holdings have now passed one million BTC — worth over $117 billion. In just the last week, businesses from the U.S., Japan, China, Singapore, and Europe added more Bitcoin to their balance sheets. MicroStrategy bought nearly 2,000 BTC, Gemini added over 1,000, and Bitdeer made large purchases too.

This growing global interest shows that companies are starting to see Bitcoin as more than just a risky bet. It’s becoming a strategic asset — something they want to hold onto for long-term value. As more businesses join in, Bitcoin’s role in finance is expanding rapidly, potentially challenging the same tech giants that once led the innovation wave.
