What ho, old bean! Michael Saylor, the chap at the helm of MicroStrategy (a software concern, don’t you know), has piped up to assure us that quantum computers are about as much of a threat to Bitcoin as a wet weekend is to a cricket match. Jolly good show, what?
Quantum Attacks? Not Before the Next Ice Age, Says Saylor
Chatting away on Natalie Brunell’s Coin Stories podcast, Saylor dismissed the hullabaloo about quantum computing risks to Bitcoin as a “fear fad.” Dash it all, he reckons any real danger is further off than a decent cup of tea in a railway station. CoinShares, those clever chaps, seem to agree, saying it’s at least a decade away. Phew, that’s a load off the old mind!
Saylor then waxed lyrical about Bitcoin’s BIP-360 upgrade, which he claims will turn the blockchain into a fortress more secure than Aunt Agatha’s cookie jar. Any scoundrel trying to breach it would only drive up demand, creating what he cheekily calls a “supply-hardening event.” Capital idea, that!
According to Saylor, institutional buying is shifting Bitcoin from technical scarcity (halving, blah blah) to structural scarcity (institutions hoarding BTC like it’s going out of fashion). So, even if some bounder tried to hack it, the result would be a “supply shock,” sending the price skyward faster than a startled pheasant.
In our brand new sit-down, I handed @saylor every anti-Bitcoin argument the internet has and he responded to ALL of them.
I dare any Bitcoin critic to watch this interview and not reconsider at least one of their arguments.

00:00 Michael Saylor address Bitcoin bear…– Natalie Brunell (@natbrunell) February 23, 2026
Now, not everyone’s singing from the same hymn sheet. Ripple’s David Schwartz and CryptoQuant’s Ki Young Ju have been waving red flags about Bitcoin’s quantum vulnerabilities. Schwartz even suggested Bitcoin might need to “fork to be quantum proof.” Good grief, that sounds like a recipe for a spot of bother!
MicroStrategy’s BTC Hoarding Spree and Price Predictions
As of February 23, 2026, MicroStrategy was sitting pretty as the world’s largest corporate Bitcoin holder, with a staggering 717,722 BTC worth a cool $54.56 billion. Chatting with Brunell, Natalie explained their cunning plan: using perpetual preferred stock to gobble up BTC while keeping stock dilution at bay. Shareholders get their fixed income, and the company piles into Bitcoin like it’s the last slice of cake at a garden party.
Since 2020, MicroStrategy’s been stacking BTC like it’s preparing for the “Orange Century,” as Saylor so grandly puts it. Quite the optimist, our Michael!
The Orange Century.

At press time, BTC was trading at $64,208, down a smidge by 0.34% in the last 24 hours. Despite a near 50% tumble from its $123,000 peak, Saylor remains as bullish as a prize-winning bull, planning to keep snapping up BTC like it’s going out of fashion.
