KEY TAKEAWAYSMichael Saylor envisions Bitcoin as a cornerstone of US financial reserves, comparing it to historical strategic purchases like gold and the Louisiana Purchase.Saylors prediction of Bitcoin reaching $100K aligns with growing institutional interest but faces skepticism from market analysts.Despite criticism from figures like CryptoQuant CEO Ki Young Ju, Saylor asserts Bitcoins long-term potential as a hedge against economic instability.Michael Saylor, co-founder of MicroStrategy and a Bitcoin mega-bull, is making waves again.Hes confident that Bitcoin wont see prices lower than $60K anytime soon.Why? Because according to Saylor, Bitcoin is becoming a strategic reserve asset, similar to how the US government historically stockpiled essentials like oil and gold.Will Bitcoin Hit $100K? A Party or a Pop?Michael Saylor is already planning his $100K Bitcoin party, confidently predicting the milestone could arrive as early as New Years Eve.Trading expert Keith Alan of Matrial Indicators is equally bullish, suggesting Thanksgiving (November 28) might be the day Bitcoin reaches six figures.But not everyone shares their optimism. Ki Young Ju, CEO of CryptoQuant, cautions against popping the champagne too early.He predicts Bitcoin could fall below $59K by years end, warning that the overheated futures market might trigger a sell-off.Source: XThis skepticism highlights Bitcoins unpredictable nature while optimism is high, its volatile price action has slashed hopes before.No Near-Term Threats for BitcoinIt looks like, for now, theBitcoin market is relatively calm,with $BTC currently trading around$89,948.Source: CoinbaseSaylor cited strong institutional buying and the lack of bearish catalysts as reasons why Bitcoin wont tumble back to $60k.Translation: fewer people are selling Bitcoin, and more companies are buying it for their balance sheets.MicroStrategy itself has purchased more than 150K $BTC since 2020, cementing its position as one of the biggest corporate holders.Saylor believes this trend of accumulating Bitcoin by both private firms and governments will only grow, pushing prices higher.Bitcoin as a Strategic Reserve Whats Next for Crypto?Saylor also believes that the US should embrace Bitcoin as a strategic reserve. This would echo historical examples of large-scale acquisitions like the Louisiana Purchase or Alaska.Speaking at the Cantor Crypto, Digital Assets & AI Infrastructure Conference, Saylor emphasized that holding Bitcoin could offer the US unprecedented economic benefits.He cited the governments potential $16T return from its 1M $BTC purchase under Senator Cynthia Lummis proposed bill.This plan (introduced by Lummis in July) advocates for the gradual acquisition of Bitcoin to bolster the countrys existing 200K $BTC holdings.The best way to protect the dollar is make sure you retire the debt and become richThe next best way to protect the dollar is to make sure that if anybody ever considers a different capital asset other than the treasury bill, you own it Michael Saylor at the Cantor Crypto, Digital Assets & AI Infrastructure ConferenceComparing Bitcoin to past strategic purchases of gold and oil, Saylor called it the manifest destiny of the US. He envisioned even greater gains under a Trump Max scenario involving 4M $BTC and an $81T return.If implemented, this plan could redefine how nations approach financial reserves.However, the plans feasibility hinges on political will and market volatility. This leaves room for debate on whether Bitcoin can truly fulfill such lofty expectations.Critics Weigh In, but Saylor Stands FirmWhile some critics, such as CryptoQuant CEO Ki Young Ju, question Saylors unshakable faith in Bitcoin, hessticking to his guns.His theory rests on two pillars: Bitcoins growing acceptance as a store of value and its potential role in government reserves.Whether or not the US buys into this vision, Saylors strategy has already turned MicroStrategy into a Bitcoin whale.And it looks like at least for now, Bitcoin believers can rest easy. According to Saylor, the only way is up.ReferencesClick to expand and view sourcesBitcoin Price on Coinbase (Coinbase)3 of the Biggest Land Deals in History (Investopedia)Crypto, Digital Assets & AI Infrastructure Conference (Cantor)Michael Saylors post on X (X)Ki Young Jus post on X (X)Add Techreport to Your Google News Feed Get the latest updates, trends, and insights delivered straight to your fingertips.

RISC-V Inside: DeepComputing recently announced the DC-ROMA RISC-V mainboard, a limited-edition platform providing a unique way to experiment with the RISC-V instruction set. The Chinese company designed the new device for industry and business customers interested in making modular computer platforms. DeepComputing has partnered with Framework and Cooler Master to provide cases to accommodate the new motherboards. Some Chinese and Hong Kong ventures have deeply invested in the RISC-V open standard chip architecture. DeepComputing, founded in 2022 by self-declared RISC-V enthusiasts, is now exploring the DIY way with a new motherboard for modular devices. The company says that the DC-ROMA RISC-V mainboard offers "premium" RISC-V hardware, which means it uses a StarFive JH7110 SoC with SiFive U74 cores clocked at up to 1.5 GHz. It also supports an integrated Imagination GPU.Basic specs include 8GB of memory and a 64GB SD card. However, the board has several tiers so customers can opt for more capable models. The cheapest tier is $200, which includes two USB-C expansion cards and a Framework or Cooler Master case and is enough to build a fully functional Linux mini-PC. There's also an expensive $1,000 "Enterprise" tier with additional ports and expansion cards.The DC-ROMA RISC-V Mainboard is a limited initiative designed to give enterprise customers a taste of the RISC-V technology, DeepComputing confirmed. The company plans to start mass manufacturing new models of the motherboard in 2025, thus providing an upgrade path to early adopters. The Chinese venture is open to "valuable feedback," although they will only listen to customers who are paying for the aforementioned value-added services.The board is a limited initiative designed to give enterprise customers a taste of RISC-V technology, DeepComputing confirmed.

The is asking for "valuable feedback," although they are only open to customers paying for the bundled value-added packages.DeepComputing has been making new computing hardware based on the RISC-V instruction set for quite some time. Earlier this year, the company built the first RISC-V laptop designed to run Ubuntu Linux using the same JH7110 SoC as the DC-ROMA RISC-V Mainboard. The DC-Roma RISC-V Pad II tablet, announced a few months ago, employs the K1 SoC developed by the Chinese company SpacemiT. // Related Stories

A growing concern: Chinese cyberattacks on the US have surged in recent years, targeting critical infrastructure, government systems, and private corporations. These sophisticated campaigns often aim to steal sensitive data, conduct espionage, and disrupt operations, posing significant threats to national security and economic stability. On Wednesday, the US government confirmed that Chinese hackers breached several US telecommunications service providers. The threat actors compromised wiretap systems used for law enforcement surveillance. The FBI and the Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA) issued a statement describing the campaign as "broad and significant," implicating a state-sponsored hacking group from the People's Republic of China (PRC).The attackers infiltrated wiretap systems, raising severe national security and privacy concerns. While the FBI and CISA did not list specific providers, the Wall Street Journal reported in early October that AT&T, Verizon, and Lumen Technologies were among the carriers the hackers hit. The intrusions, which may have lasted for months, enabled the exfiltration of sensitive data, including customer call records and the internet traffic of millions of Americans.The hackers, identified as "Salt Typhoon." It is part of a larger colective called "Typhoon," which has several splinter cells, including Volt Typhoon and Flax Typhoon. Salt reportedly exploited vulnerabilities in the telecommunications networks to gather intelligence. While the bad actors presumably had carte blanche access to the systems, US officials said the compromised data only included private communications from a limited number of individuals, primarily those involved in government or political activities.Although the agencies were reluctant to name names, CNN reported in the lead-up to the US presidential election that high-profile individuals, including President Donald Trump and running mate Senator JD Vance, may have been targeted as part of the hacking campaign. The hackers also copied information related to US law enforcement requests, potentially undermining critical ongoing investigations. // Related StoriesThe CISA and the FBI emphasized that they continue to assist affected companies and encourage other organizations to report suspicious activity."[We] continue to render technical assistance, rapidly share information to assist other potential victims, and work to strengthen cyber defenses across the commercial communications sector," the agencies stated. "We encourage any organization that believes it might be a victim to engage its local FBI Field Office or CISA."TechCrunch notes that the breach is the latest in a series of sophisticated cyberattacks attributed to China-linked "Typhoon" hacking groups targeting critical US infrastructure. Experts warn that the campaign demonstrates heightened strategic targeting by PRC-affiliated actors, who increasingly focus on sensitive government and communications systems.China has denied involvement, with a spokesperson stating that the country "opposes cyberattacks in all forms." However, US officials and cybersecurity experts remain vigilant, warning of the potential for further espionage and disruptive activities.
