An appearance from Michael Saylor on The Joe Rogan Experience would “shatter the internet,” according to a Bitcoiner.
Strategy co-founder Michael Saylor has publicly expressed interest in discussing Bitcoin with podcaster Joe Rogan on the worlds most-listened-to podcast, The Joe Rogan Experience (JRE).
“Hey @joerogan, let‘s talk about Bitcoin,” Saylor said in a May 31 X post in response to a Joe Rogan fan account asking, “Who’s one guest you‘d love to see Joe Rogan interview that he hasn’t had on yet？”
Saylors post triggered excitement among the Bitcoin community
Saylors post prompted speculation within the Bitcoin (BTC) community. Popular Bitcoiner, The Bitcoin Therapist, said, “This interview will shatter the internet.”
Crypto analyst Kook told their 164,200 X followers that “Saylor is going to Bitcoin pill Joe Rogan.” Meanwhile, crypto commentator Brandon MacDougal said, “For the first time ever, Ill be watching a Joe Rogan podcast if Saylor is there.”

Joe Rogan, host of the JRE, has frequently discussed crypto and Bitcoin on his podcast and has made several pro-Bitcoin comments over the years. In an October 2023 episode of the JRE with OpenAI co-founder Sam Altman, Rogan said that Bitcoin fascinates him the most of all cryptocurrencies.
“The real fascinating crypto is Bitcoin. That‘s the one that I think has the most likely possibility of becoming a universal viable currency. It’s limited in the amount that it can be,” Rogan said.
“I love the fact that its been implemented,” he added.

Although Rogan has yet to respond to Saylor‘s public proposal, featuring a guest from the Bitcoin industry wouldn’t be unfamiliar territory. Even in Bitcoins early days, Rogan gave the topic airtime on his podcast.
Between 2014 and 2016, Bitcoin entrepreneur Andreas Antonopoulos made several appearances on Rogans podcast when Bitcoin was still trading below $1,000.

Saylors firm Strategy holds 580,250 Bitcoin, worth approximately $60.47 billion at the time of publication, according to Saylor Tracker.
Saylor recently speculated why Bitcoins price is not yet $150,000. He said holders without a long-term outlook have been selling off while a new cohort of investors is beginning to enter the market.
“I think were going through a rotation right now,” Saylor said on the Coin Stories podcast with Natalie Brunell on May 9.
