Michael Saylor Proposes ‘Bill of Digital Rights’ to Fuel Future Economic Growth

Strategy’s executive chairman Michael Saylor has called for a framework of five fundamental rights governing digital assets, arguing that better money and capital markets are essential for an economy increasingly shaped by artificial intelligence. In an essay posted online, Saylor outlined freedoms covering the ability to create new digital assets, issue them to raise capital, hold or choose custody arrangements, transfer them freely, and use them for spending, investing or borrowing.

Rights Should Extend to Individuals and Businesses Alike

Saylor argued these protections should apply equally to people and companies, stating that an asset’s value depends entirely on what its owner can actually do with it. He warned that restricting usefulness directly limits economic potential. With automation expected to reshape jobs and render many existing products obsolete, Saylor emphasized that future prosperity hinges on creating new business opportunities at a faster pace, setting a goal of enabling 10 million new companies to raise capital.

Strategy Continues Bitcoin Accumulation

The essay comes as Strategy resumed Bitcoin purchases after a brief pause, acquiring 950 BTC for roughly $75.7 million. This brings the company’s total holdings to 846,000 BTC, acquired for approximately $63.8 billion at an average cost of $75,416 per coin.
