According to Deep Tide TechFlow news, on November 26, the publicly listed Bitcoin mining company MARA stated that controlling key resources such as Bitcoin's block space and hash rate (the backbone of the network) could have profound implications for America's financial sovereignty and its ability to maintain global influence in the digital age, calling for decisive action from the U.S. government to address the challenges posed by Bitcoin and seize opportunities while implementing the following strategic measures:
1. Create a U.S. Bitcoin strategic reserve. The United States should acquire Bitcoin as a strategic reserve asset. By holding Bitcoin, similar to the U.S. being a major holder of gold, America will ensure its trading capacity when confidence in the dollar declines globally;
2. Invest in domestic Bitcoin mining. The United States should prioritize expanding its domestic Bitcoin mining operations to increase its share of global hash power. By controlling a larger portion of global hash power, the U.S. can ensure secure access to block space and protect its economic sovereignty;
3. Develop mining technology to promote self-sufficiency. Encourage domestic production of mining hardware (ASIC chips) to reduce reliance on foreign suppliers. This will ensure that the U.S. does not depend on critical infrastructure from hostile nations, thereby enhancing technological self-sufficiency and strengthening national security;
4. Implement supportive policies and regulations. Develop clear and comprehensive regulations that provide legal clarity for Bitcoin miners and investors. Offering incentives, such as tax breaks for incorporating renewable energy into mining operations, will further stimulate industry growth, technological advancement, and job creation;
5. Lead the global Bitcoin standard. The United States should take a leadership role in establishing global standards for decentralized networks. By collaborating with allies and ensuring that Bitcoin remains a neutral, open, and secure platform, the U.S. can promote stability in global financial transactions and prevent the concentration of hash power in hostile nations;
6. Protect national security through hash power control. As competition in Bitcoin mining becomes more intense, controlling a significant amount of domestic hash power will shield the U.S. from foreign interference. Ensuring a strong share of global hash power can prevent hostile nations from censoring or delaying U.S. transactions, which could have severe economic repercussions.
