Michael Saylor net worth: Fortune explored as Bitcoin stalwart makes bullish prediction ahead of Trump presidency

Well-known entrepreneur and former CEO of MicroStrategy Michael Saylor has been trending for some time after he shared a post on social media. He referred to big news related to Bitcoin which is also owned by his company. Notably, Michael boasts a net worth of $11 billion, as per Celebrity Net Worth.

Michael Saylor shared a post through X (formerly Twitter) on January 19, 2025, adding a screenshot of a website tracking the coins and the caption reads:

"Things will be different tomorrow."

Michael Saylor's tweet was referring to the day of Donald Trump's inauguration ceremony. The post was shared shortly after Melania Trump's meme coin, also called $MELANIA, was launched on the same day. Melania also announced the coin's arrival through X, adding a website link from where people can purchase it and wrote:

"The Official Melania Meme is live! You can buy $MELANIA now."

According to CNBC, Trump was reportedly planning to release an executive order to make crypto a priority around the nation. However, Trump's team has yet to share a response to the same.

During his appearance at the Bitcoin2024 conference held in July last year at Nashville, Trump said he would ensure that the US gets to retain the Bitcoin the country has been holding so far or in the future. He said that it would be a part of the "strategic national bitcoin stockpile" and continued:

"For too long, our government has violated the cardinal rule that every Bitcoiner knows by far: Never sell your Bitcoin."
