Michael Saylor cites trade policy and AI spending as hurdles for Bitcoin recovery
What happened
Michael Saylor stated that trade policy, rising Treasury yields, and the $1 trillion artificial intelligence build-out are making it difficult for Bitcoin to recover from its recent bear market. Saylor noted that restrictive trade and monetary policy, along with repeated trade-war declarations against Canada, were contributing factors.

Why it matters
Saylor views Bitcoin as 'pure capital,' meaning its price tends to fall sharply during risk-off periods. Furthermore, the diversion of capital into AI stocks and data centers, driven by perceived higher returns, is preventing Bitcoin from receiving expected capital.
