Strategy Built To Survive 90% Bitcoin Drawdown: Saylor

• Saylor says Strategy can survive extreme Bitcoin crashes without risking long-term operational stability.
• He argues that Bitcoin volatility keeps declining as adoption grows and markets mature steadily.
• The company’s stock has fallen in the last five days alongside BTC price, but Saylor insists Bitcoin remains structurally resilient.

Michael Saylor says Strategy remains secure even if Bitcoin suffers an extreme crash. His remarks come as Bitcoin trades near $91,600 after falling sharply over the past week. The drop erased gains made earlier in the year and pushed Strategy’s stock lower.

Saylor Defends Strategy’s Bitcoin Model

The Strategy executive chairman made the comment during an interview with Fox Business. He dismissed claims that Wall Street’s expansion into Bitcoin has damaged the asset’s behavior.

Saylor said Bitcoin has become less volatile as it matures. He explained that the asset carried an annualized volatility of about 80% when the company began buying in 2020. He believes that number has now dropped to around 50%.

He also expects volatility to decline further every few years as Bitcoin adoption grows. He argued that the asset is trending toward behaving like a more stable market instrument.

The firm’s chairman insisted that the company remains strong. He said Strategy holds more than 649,000 Bitcoin. That stash was worth almost $60 billion at the time of writing.

Despite the drop, Saylor said he is not worried about deeper declines. He stated that Strategy is engineered to survive an 80% to 90% Bitcoin drawdown without facing operational risk.

Saylor Says Strategy Can Withstand Downturns

Saylor claimed that the firm’s leverage is extremely robust and does not threaten the company during harsh downturns. He emphasized that the business model was designed for long-term Bitcoin volatility.

Bitcoin’s decline has also dragged Strategy’s stock. Shares closed near $206 on Tuesday after dropping almost 8% over five days. The move reflected broader fear across the crypto market as traders reacted to the latest downturn. 

Yet, Citibank issued a buy rating on Saylor’s Strategy last month. This reflects continued belief in the firm’s BTC treasury model.

Meanwhile, Crypto commentator Ted Pillows noted that Bitcoin must reclaim $94,000 to regain upward momentum. He warned that failing to reclaim the zone could trigger another correction. His analysis further confirms the weakening sentiment around the recent decline in the coin’s price.
