Against the backdrop of the rapid rise of Bitcoin, which is approaching the $100,000 mark, a number of countries are seriously considering the creation of strategic national reserves based on the leading cryptocurrency.
USA: strategic reserve on the agenda
In the USA, the discussion of Bitcoin as a strategic asset is reaching a new level. Senator Cynthia Lummis from Wyoming has proposed a bill that provides for the annual purchase of up to 200,000 BTC. Donald Trump, the elected president, also supported this initiative, making it part of his economic program.
Brazil: bill under consideration
In Brazil, a bill has been proposed stating that Bitcoin will constitute 5% of the country's international reserves. These assets are planned to be used to support the digital real.
El Salvador: one step ahead
El Salvador, the first to make Bitcoin a legal tender, has already received $100 million in unrealized profit. President Nayib Bukele considers this evidence of the success of the strategy.
Other countries
Poland and Russia are also discussing the possibility of accumulating Bitcoin in national reserves. Polish presidential candidate Slawomir Mentzen is promoting the idea of making the country a cryptocurrency haven. In Russia, despite the controversies, lawmakers support the use of digital assets in international transactions.
