Michael Saylor says Strategy can raise and deploy nine figures into Bitcoin within an hour.
He hinted on Sunday that another purchase may be next, even as net asset values for corporate Bitcoin treasuries face pressure.

“$100M an Hour” Playbook
Saylor described an investment cycle that he says is 1,000 times faster than real estate, energy, or tech.
He outlined sessions where the firm sells $50–$100 million of securities per hour and buys the same amount of Bitcoin in that hour.
Moreover, he claimed the company can raise as much as $1 billion in a day and finish deployment the same afternoon.
He framed the speed as structural, not situational. The desk runs continuously, converts capital swiftly, and closes exposure by day’s end. According to Saylor, the workflow turns corporate financing into near-instant Bitcoin accumulation.
In an interview on the Market Disruptors podcast released Saturday, he reiterated the point with concrete timelines.
By 4:00 pm the firm might show minimal exposure. By 5:00–6:00 pm, he said, the team can be “fully done,” with cash raised and BTC secured.
Real-Time Build vs. Traditional Timelines
Saylor contrasted Strategy’s cycle with slow, capital-intensive projects. Real estate developers can take years before investors see cash flows.
Oil and gas projects follow long permitting and build phases. Technology bets require product and market adoption first.
By contrast, he argued, a Bitcoin treasury converts funding into a position the same day. He framed the process as “building in real time” because the asset exists and settles immediately.
Therefore, investors do not wait for construction or regulatory milestones before capital turns productive.
He added that demand can be met on the spot. If a counterparty wants $500 million of exposure, the trade can close in minutes. Cash moves, collateral forms, and the firm buys the underlying Bitcoin that day.
Strategy’s Stack and Pace
Strategy remains the largest corporate Bitcoin holder, with 640,250 BTC after its Oct. 13 purchase. At current marks, that stake equals roughly 2.5% of total supply.
The company began its accumulation in October 2020 with more than 20,000 BTC and has scaled since then.
Saylor’s Sunday teaser suggested more buying may follow despite recent NAV compression across digital-asset treasuries.
He maintained that speed offsets market noise by shortening the window between capital raising and deployment. As a result, treasury slippage, he implied, stays contained.
He also noted that the desk operates daily with multiple credit channels open. Those facilities enable quick issuance, immediate execution, and rapid conversion into BTC.
Consequently, the firm can match financing windows with market liquidity in real time.
Critics, Dilution Risk, and the Response
Critics have flagged dilution risk for shareholders as the company issues new securities to fund purchases.
They question whether per-share value keeps pace with issuance. They also worry that volatile markets can pressure net asset values during drawdowns.
Saylor called skeptics “strategically ignorant,” arguing they overlook how different investor groups price the capital stack.
He said equity holders focus on BTC per share and its appreciation over time. Meanwhile, credit investors target dollar-denominated yield with Bitcoin as collateral.
He framed the model as a swap: fiat yield for BTC yield, with transparent collateral and settlement.
According to Saylor, that alignment lets both sides underwrite risk cleanly while the company keeps scaling its Bitcoin position.
