The Czech National Bank (CNB) is exploring the possibility of including Bitcoin in its foreign exchange reserves as part of a strategy to diversify its assets. Governor Aleš Michl has acknowledged Bitcoin's impressive annual returns but clarified that the bank is not yet considering purchasing cryptocurrency for its reserves. Any decision to include Bitcoin would require approval from the CNB's Board of Directors.
Currently, the CNB is focusing on increasing its gold holdings, with plans to raise them to about 5% of total assets by 2028. This approach reflects the bank's cautious stance on incorporating digital assets into its portfolio.
This exploration into Bitcoin highlights the growing interest among central banks in diversifying their reserves with digital currencies, though many remain cautious due to the volatility associated with crypto assets.
What are your thoughts on central banks diversifying into cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin? Do you believe this trend will continue, or will traditional assets remain dominant in reserve portfolios?
