He added that Bitcoin’s annual volatility has continued to fall since the firm entered the market in 2020. His comments come as BTC posts its first negative year-to-date reading since 2023.Bitcoin Volatility Trends Lower as Market MaturesSaylor said on Fox Business that BTC’s volatility has eased from 80 percent in 2020 to roughly 50 percent today. He described the shift as evidence of a maturing market rather than fading investor interest. The trend, according to his remarks, advances as institutional activity expands. He added that each market cycle removes leverage and short-term traders, creating stronger foundations.The interview shared on X through his account echoed the same position. He framed the latest downturn as part of Bitcoin’s long history of recoveries across multiple deep cycles. Saylor noted that Bitcoin has recorded fifteen major drawdowns during its 15-year lifespan. He said each cycle has produced a new high once conditions normalized.Fox Business host Charles Payne asked whether recent attention on other assets affected Bitcoin’s pace. Saylor pointed to broader developments across artificial intelligence, digital assets, and financial technology. He still maintained that Bitcoin remains the preferred option for those seeking long-term savings without counterparty risk.₿etter than Ever. Today I was the warm-up act for @natbrunell as we both talked Bitcoin with @cvpayne. You’ll want to hear what she had to say. pic.twitter.com/vDaFceyeza— Michael Saylor (@saylor) November 18, 2025Strategy Maintains Strategy Through Market SwingsStrategy’s financing model remained a key point in the conversation. Saylor told Payne that the company has returned about 70 percent yearly over five years. He contrasted that with Bitcoin’s roughly 50 percent average annual performance across the same period. He said the firm uses equity and digital credit instruments to purchase BTC.Saylor stated that these credit instruments offer dividend-style payouts funded through market performance. According to the interview shared on X, the company needs Bitcoin to rise only 1.25 percent annually to maintain these payouts over time. He added that Strategy could operate for decades even if Bitcoin stopped appreciating. He cited more than 50 billion dollars in equity and what he described as strong liquidity.Payne pressed on the risk of deeper losses. Saylor said the company is designed to sustain an 80 to 90 percent decline without structural disruption. He also noted that leverage has trended toward low levels and continues to fall. He described the company as “indestructible” under its current framework.The segment concluded with Payne turning to Natalie Brunel, who discussed repeated market drawdowns since 2017. She said large dips offer buying opportunities for long-term savers. Brunel added that Bitcoin’s structure enables individuals to preserve value without inflation risk.The post Saylor Says Strategy Can Survive a 90% Bitcoin Crash Amid Current BTC Volatility appeared first on Blockonomi.
