Michael Saylor: Digital credit is a killer application of Bitcoin
Golden Finance reports that on April 29, Strategy founder Michael Saylor stated during the Bitcoin 2026 conference that digital credit is a killer application for Bitcoin. Every dollar entering digital credit will flow into digital capital, which will flow into the Bitcoin network. As it flows into the Bitcoin network, the price of Bitcoin should rise. We expect digital credit to drive the growth of the Bitcoin network. The ultimate goal is to provide one billion people with a high-yield digital currency bank account offering an 8% to 10% annual return. To push Bitcoin to $10 million per coin, making Bitcoin a $200 trillion network, until it develops into an alternative to 20th-century credit tools, zero-yield bank accounts, mediocre junk bonds, private credit, risky and shaky equity, or all challenging, hard-to-manage, illiquid, immovable real estate investments. These collectively represent the digital transformation of all capital markets.
As we like to say in this industry and within the Bitcoin community: fixing money, fixing the world. Digital credit is the next killer application for fixing money. It will spread Bitcoin worldwide. It will enable Bitcoin to support all stablecoins, all cryptocurrencies, and all types of traditional credit tools. When major banks and leading investors around the world lend some digital credit or offer Bitcoin-driven digital bank accounts, that will be a good day. It’s all made possible by all of you, who inspire me every day. So, thank you. I am grateful to embark on this journey with all of you.
