BTC Retests $97,000, Saylor Says ‘Bitcoin Is Forever,’ While Bubble’s Season Ends

Michael Saylor, a renowned Bitcoin advocate and the executive chairman of $BTC-focused company Strategy, has taken to his official social media account to make a bullish Bitcoin statement while the world’s flagship cryptocurrency is striving to recapture the $97,000 price mark.

This time, in his tweet, Strategy’s boss and co-founder, Saylor, metaphorically likened Bitcoin to other assets in the market, stressing $BTC’s dominance and resilience compared to other investment tools. Meanwhile, Bitcoin rose to surpass the $97,200 today but a rebound pushed it back below $97,000 after that. On Thursday, it also attempted to regain this important price level. Now, $BTC is changing hands at $96,898

"Tulip season ends. Bitcoin is forever"

Traditionally, Saylor has published an image full of Bitcoin symbols and himself depicted too, generated by AI. The Bitcoin bull here refers to the massive tulip mania in the Netherlands in the 1630s. Back then, the price of tulips surged to form a real bulb and it collapsed in 1637 after the price went as high as 1,000 guilders per a single bulb.

In the picture, Saylor is dressed like a Dutch merchant with a tulip field in the background and is holding a chest of Bitcoin (drawn as physical coins). The caption to the tweet highlights Bitcoin’s excellence over tulips and all other assets out there: “Tulip season ends. Bitcoin is forever.”
