In a recent CNBC interview, Saylor said that even if Bitcoin were to fall 80 to 90 percent, the company would “still be fine” and continue operating normally.
His confidence comes from a strategy that blends traditional finance structures with a long-term view of digital assets.
A Strategy Modeled After a Modern Bank
Saylor explained that Strategy uses an approach similar to that of a well-run bank. Instead of relying only on common stock or traditional debt, the company issues preferred equity. Preferred equity is a type of investment that sits between debt and common shares. It pays dividends, but those dividends are not fixed like interest payments on a loan. They are declared by the board when appropriate. Because there is no required coupon and no maturity date, the company cannot default on this structure.
This gives MicroStrategy more breathing room during volatile markets. When Bitcoin’s price falls, the company is not forced to meet rigid debt obligations. When the price rises, common shareholders still benefit from the upside. It is a structure designed to absorb shocks, much like a bank that uses diverse capital sources to protect itself during economic downturns.
A real-world example of this kind of resilience can be seen in how banks handled the sharp market swings of early 2020. The institutions with well-balanced capital structures recovered faster and continued lending, while those with heavy short-term debt faced pressure. MicroStrategy is following a similar playbook with Bitcoin at the center.
