Miller Value Partners CIO and Chairman Bill Miller IV has a bold prediction for the adoption of Bitcoin as a primary treasury reserve asset.
Miller stated that in two to three decades, every company will become a Bitcoin treasury company. Notably, he made this bold prediction on CNBC’s Closing Bell on July 28, tapping the Bitcoin strategy to outlast that of other cryptocurrencies.
Why Every Firm Will Buy Bitcoin
Notably, the Miller Value Partners CIO shared that Bitcoin will be on the balance sheet of every company in 20 to 30 years, as it will continue to hold more value than fiat currency. He stressed that this almost guaranteed outperformance would attract more traditional financial institutions to buy Bitcoin.
Firms like Metaplanet, Twenty One Capital, GameStop, and ProCap adopted the Bitcoin treasury playbook, allocating millions of dollars to accumulate the pioneering cryptocurrency. While this strategy has spread to other cryptocurrencies, such as Ethereum, BNB, and XRP, Miller noted that Bitcoin’s long-term bullish trajectory will continue to attract institutions to it.
Meanwhile, Miller’s response followed a question by the host, Michael Santoli, on why Strategy’s MSTR stock has receded lately. He noted that the reception of the Michael Saylor-chaired firm’s aggressive fundraisers to buy more Bitcoin has not changed.
The CIO noted that investors have consistently oversubscribed for every rollout from Strategy, a glaring indication of the demand for Bitcoin in the traditional financial market. Notably, the upsizing of Strategy’s new STRC product from $500 million to $2.52 billion last week supports this narrative.
Bitcoin Is The Only Game-Changing Technology
Furthermore, Miller took a dig at Ethereum and Solana, suggesting that the recently approved crypto bills allegedly “grandfathered” them as being decentralized. For perspective, the US House passed the CLARITY Act, the Anti-CBDC Surveillance bill, and the GENIUS Act on Crypto Week, marking a landmark victory for the digital asset industry.
Miller noted that the CLARITY Act allowed the classification of Ethereum and Solana as decentralized blockchains. Nonetheless, he stressed that Bitcoin remains the only cutting-edge technology and will continue to stand out, despite the bill giving these blockchains undue advantages.
He termed Ethereum and Solana’s proof-of-stake consensus as centralized, stating that the mechanism confers power to those who hold large stakes in the network. However, the energy-intensive nature of Bitcoin’s proof-of-work consensus is a game-changing innovation.
Moreover, Miller stated that most other blockchain technologies do not address any real-world problems. This Bitcoin does, with its supply accountability and 24/7 visibility. Furthermore, with its massive liquidity, institutional adoption, and first-mover advantage, Bitcoin will ultimately prevail.
