Bitcoin is showing renewed strength after a volatile week, climbing above $103,000 as two major catalysts dominate the headlines: President Trump’s $2,000 “tariff dividend” plan for U.S. citizens, and Michael Saylor’s cryptic message hinting at another round of Bitcoin accumulation.
These developments have revived optimism across the crypto market, reminding investors of the powerful link between fiscal policy, liquidity, and digital assets.
Bitcoin’s Rebound and Trump’s Dividend Plan
After briefly dipping below the key $100K support, Bitcoin bounced back strongly following Trump’s post announcing that every American could receive at least $2,000 as a “tariff dividend.”
Crypto analysts drew an important parallel: the last time such direct payments occurred, during the COVID-19 stimulus checks in 2020, it triggered the 2021 crypto bull run, when Bitcoin surged from $3,800 to $69,000.
Trump’s exact post read:
“A dividend of at least $2,000 a person (not including high-income people!) will be paid to everyone.”
The announcement immediately energized markets, echoing the same liquidity boost that once fueled massive retail inflows into Bitcoin and altcoins. Traders now speculate that history could repeat itself if the dividend plan materializes in early 2026.
Michael Saylor’s Hint Adds Fuel to the Fire
While Trump’s announcement stirred excitement on the macro level, Michael Saylor — founder of MicroStrategy and one of Bitcoin’s largest corporate holders — added to the momentum with a subtle yet powerful post shared by Watcher.Guru.
His words, "Best continue," came alongside data showing MicroStrategy’s Bitcoin portfolio now valued at $65.45 billion, holding over 641,000 BTC. This has fueled speculation that Saylor may either be buying the dip or waiting for another correction before resuming large-scale accumulation — a strategy that has historically signaled bullish turning points for Bitcoin.
Market Context and Institutional Flows
Despite renewed optimism, institutional activity remains mixed. U.S. spot Bitcoin ETFs just recorded their largest daily outflow since August, suggesting that while sentiment is improving, some institutional players are still waiting for confirmation — or possibly aligning their entries with Saylor’s buying timing.
Meanwhile, Ethereum followed Bitcoin’s lead, recovering to around $3,480, as DeFi inflows and staking activity picked up after days of muted trading.
Can History Repeat Itself?
If Trump’s dividend plan injects real liquidity into the economy and Saylor’s next accumulation wave begins, Bitcoin could aim for the $110K–$115K range — a zone where short liquidations are heavily clustered.
On the other hand, if a short-term pullback emerges, it may set the stage for a “buy-the-dip” scenario that institutional investors like Saylor thrive on.
Between Trump’s fiscal stimulus rhetoric and Saylor’s unwavering conviction, the narrative driving Bitcoin’s next chapter is clear: liquidity meets belief.
Whether the market experiences another dip or pushes higher, the stage for a renewed bull phase appears set — and traders are watching every move closely.
