#CryptoMarketMildlyRebounds The Great Bull Michael Saylor, “Bitcoin Enters a New Era in 2026”
Bitcoin bull Michael Saylor has made a new statement about Bitcoin’s future in 2026.
Founder of MicroStrategy, Michael Saylor, said that Bitcoin will enter a new phase by 2026, and during this period, the main market players will shift from traders to banks.
In a previous interview with CNBC, Saylor emphasized that the Bitcoin narrative is now shaped more around the direct involvement of the banking system rather than ETFs or retail investor sentiment.
According to Saylor, the key transformative development in the Bitcoin market is the acceptance of this asset by banks and the activation of credit mechanisms. He noted that in the past six months, about half of the major banks in the US have started offering BTC-backed loans through Bitcoin ETFs, and this trend is accelerating.
On the other hand, Saylor mentioned that major financial institutions like Charles Schwab and Citi plan to launch Bitcoin custody services along with Bitcoin-backed loans and related financial products in the first half of 2026. He stated that these steps will further integrate Bitcoin into traditional financial infrastructure.
According to Saylor, custody, trading, and credit support from the banking system will elevate Bitcoin to a completely new asset class level. Emphasizing that the “main story” of 2026 will be banks adopting BTC, Saylor said this process could push the cryptocurrency market to new heights in both scale and institutional confidence.
