MicroStrategy President Michael Saylor is reevaluating his stance on the cryptocurrency landscape following the <a href="https://www.unlock-bc.com/123595/crypto-goes-mainstream-sec-approves-ether-etfs/" class="ek-link" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">recent approval of Ethereum spot ETFs</a> by the US Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC).
In a recent episode of the “What Bitcoin Did” podcast with host Peter McCormack on May 25, Saylor discussed the potential impact of this regulatory approval.
Previously cautious about the possibility of Ethereum ETFs gaining SEC approval, Saylor now sees this development as a positive step that could benefit not only Ethereum but also Bitcoin and the broader crypto industry. He believes that the approval of Ethereum spot ETFs adds an extra layer of legitimacy and defense for Bitcoin, potentially accelerating institutional adoption of cryptocurrencies.
According to Saylor, mainstream investors are likely to allocate a portion of their portfolios to the crypto asset class, with Bitcoin capturing the majority of these allocations. He predicts that Bitcoin could constitute 60% to 70% of investors’ crypto holdings, even as they allocate 5% to 10% of their portfolios to the asset class overall.
This shift in perspective marks a major departure from Saylor’s previous belief that alternative tokens such as Binance Coin (BNB), Solana (SOL), XRP, and Cardano (ADA) would not receive similar treatment as Bitcoin.
The community has taken note of Saylor’s reversal, with industry figures like Joe Carlasare and Ricky Bobbyy expressing surprise at his change of heart and speculating on whether he will begin investing in Ethereum.
Additionally, the MicroStrategy chairman reiterated his faith in Bitcoin’s future. Saylor and his firm have long been staunch supporters of Bitcoin, holding a substantial position in the leading cryptocurrency.
Based in Virginia, MicroStrategy is the largest public holder of Bitcoin, having accumulated more than 214,000 BTC, currently valued at around $15 billion.
“I’m quite the optimist, I actually think that Bitcoin is going to succeed, it is succeeding, it’s succeeding as fast as it could reasonably succeed, and we ought to try to avoid the tendency to [mess] with it,” Saylor&nbsp;<a href="https://x.com/WhatBitcoinDid/status/1794369150862934034" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" class="ek-link">said</a>.
