Bitcoin (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/btc/usd">BTC</a>) advocate and MicroStrategy (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MSTR#NASDAQ">MSTR</a>) executive chairman Michael Saylor asserts that Bitcoin&#8217;s meteoric rise to over $100,000 has decisively proven its legitimacy and laid the groundwork for its potential ascent to <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cryptocurrency/24/11/42116183/michael-saylor-predicted-bitcoin-to-hit-13-million-if-it-happens-it-will-entail-massive-hyperinflation-analyst-warns#:~:text=could%20hit%20%2413%20million%20by,markets%20valued%20at%20%24125%20trillion.">$13 million per coin</a>.
In a <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AhAia950nbo">podcast</a> with Tom Bilyeu published on Dec. 17, Saylor predicted Bitcoin will grow at an average annual rate of 29%, fueled by increasing institutional participation and broader educational initiatives aimed at demystifying the asset. 
He described Bitcoin as the world's first &#8220;perfect money&#8221; and the most efficient store of value ever engineered
Bitcoin&#8217;s volatility is a feature, not a flaw, stemming from its superior design as a monetary network, according to Saylor.
Education And Institutional Guidance
"Education and adoption go hand in hand," he explains, envisioning a future where Bitcoin becomes a mainstream <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cryptocurrency/24/12/42547334/the-new-gold-seasoned-investor-ross-gerber-spots-a-pot-of-bitcoin-at-the-end-of-the-rainbow">financial asset akin to digital gold</a>.
Saylor emphasized the significance of institutional backing, such as BlackRock's recommendation to allocate 2% of portfolios to Bitcoin. He interprets this guidance as a milestone in Bitcoin's journey toward broader acceptance.
Corporate Strategies
Companies like MicroStrategy and Riot (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/RIOT#NASDAQ">RIOT</a>) are leading the way in adopting the &#8220;Bitcoin standard&#8221; by recapitalizing their balance sheets with Bitcoin. 
Saylor views this trend as indicative of a long-term shift in corporate finance, where firms leverage Bitcoin&#8217;s appreciating value as a strategic reserve.
Strategic Reserve
Saylor also highlights the potential for Bitcoin to serve as <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cryptocurrency/24/12/42511716/bitcoin-as-neutral-reserve-asset-could-overhaul-financial-system-says-analyst">America&#8217;s strategic digital reserve</a>, citing <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cryptocurrency/24/12/42601193/senator-lummis-introduces-strategic-bitcoin-reserve-proposal">advocacy from political figures like Senator Cynthia Lummis</a> (R-Wyo.). He argues that Bitcoin's incorruptibility and robustness make it a compelling choice for nations seeking reliable economic reserves.
What's Next: Saylor compares Bitcoin's adoption to the inevitability of water flowing downhill due to gravity, predicting that as its advantages become increasingly evident, capital will naturally gravitate toward it.

<h3>Why Short Interest Matters</h3>
Short interest is the number of shares that have been sold short but have not yet been covered or closed out. <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/how-to-short-a-stock/">Short selling</a> is when a trader sells shares of a company they do not own, with the hope that the price will fall. Traders make money from short selling if the price of the stock falls and they lose if it rises.
Short interest is important to track because it can act as an indicator of market sentiment towards a particular stock. An increase in short interest can signal that investors have become more bearish, while a decrease in short interest can signal they have become more bullish.

A company's peer is another company that has similar characteristics to it, such as industry, size, age, and financial structure.

Peering Into ConocoPhillips's Recent Short Interest

Tomas Gorny didn't set out to be a billionaire. In fact, in 2001, he only wanted $5,000 a month to keep the lights on and his <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/real-estate/24/11/41977845/with-interest-rates-soaring-weekly-mortgage-demand-nosedives-11-a-warning-sign-for-the-real-estate-market">mortgage </a>paid. Fresh off losing nearly everything in the dot-com crash, the Polish immigrant had just $6,000 to his name and a simple dream: survival.
Fast-forward two decades, Gorny is the CEO and cofounder of Nextiva, a Scottsdale-based customer experience management firm valued at a staggering $2.7 billion. According to a company spokesperson, his personal net worth now surpasses $1 billion.&nbsp;
But the road to riches wasn't paved with shortcuts; instead, it was a master class in resilience, strategy and planning for the future.&nbsp;

<li>Deloitte's fastest-growing software company partners with Amazon, Walmart &amp; Target – <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/mode-mobile-2">Many are rushing to grab 4,000 of its pre-IPO shares for just $0.26/share!</a></li>
<li>It&#8217;s no wonder Jeff Bezos holds over $70 million in art — <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/masterworks">this alternative asset has outpaced the S&amp;P 500 since 1995, delivering an average annual return of 11.4%. Here&#8217;s how everyday investors are getting started.</a></li>
</ul>
Gorny's journey began in 1996 when he cofounded Internet Communications, a website-hosting startup. Two years later, the company sold for $6 million in cash and stock. When the buyer, Interliant, went public in 1999, Gorny's shares briefly made him a multimillionaire. But the dot-com crash wiped out all but $6,000 of his fortune.
&#8220;I never looked at it like, ‘I need to make the [millions] back.' It wasn't important to me," Gorny says. Instead, he doubled down on what he knew best: building. In 2001, he launched Ipower, a platform designed to help people and businesses create websites.&nbsp;
The tech industry was in shambles, but the internet itself was booming – global users had grown from just 16 million in 1995 to over 500 million by 2001.
Gorny started small, prioritizing steady profitability over explosive growth. His early customers brought in just enough to keep the company afloat. However, as his products improved, the business eventually attracted hundreds of new users daily.&nbsp;

By 2007, Ipower was thriving and Gorny sold it to Endurance International for a reported $100 million. This strategic move gave both companies a competitive edge as giants like Google and Microsoft began dominating the market.
For Gorny, the sale wasn't about cashing out. "When you focus on building your business, your exit will be significantly better than you ever envisioned," he explains. That philosophy guided his next venture, Nextiva, which he cofounded in 2006.
Today, Nextiva is thriving in a customer experience management market projected to hit $70.2 billion by 2032, with a current CAGR of 17.5%, according to Fortune Business Insights.
Gorny's story echoes advice from fellow billionaire <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/startups/24/10/41418553/mark-cuban-calls-warren-buffetts-buy-and-hold-strategy-a-crock-which-billionaires-investment-style-a">Mark Cuban</a>: "If you have an exit strategy, it's not an obsession," Cuban wrote in Entrepreneur magazine. Looking back, Gorny says financial success is just validation that they've done something right and different.

Traders make money from short selling if the price of the stock falls and they lose if it rises.
Short interest is important to track because it can act as an indicator of market sentiment towards a particular stock. An increase in short interest can signal that investors have become more bearish, while a decrease in short interest can signal they have become more bullish.

<h3>Comparing Piper Sandler's Short Interest Against Its Peers</h3>
