CryptoQuant founder Ki Young Ju stated on platform X that using Bitcoin as a strategic reserve to offset U.S. debt is a viable approach. Over the past 15 years, $790 billion in real capital inflows have driven Bitcoin's market capitalization to $2 trillion. Just this year alone, $352 billion in inflows has increased its market cap by $1 trillion. However, using an extractable asset like Bitcoin (rather than gold or dollars) to offset dollar-denominated debt may make consensus among creditors challenging. For Bitcoin to gain broader market recognition, it must achieve global and national authority comparable to that of gold. Establishing a Strategic Bitcoin Reserve (SBR) could serve as a symbolic first step. Since 70% of U.S. debt is held domestically, it is feasible for the U.S. government to designate Bitcoin as a strategic asset and offset 36% of its debt by purchasing 1 million Bitcoins by 2050. While the remaining 30% of debt held by foreign entities may resist this approach, the plan does not rely on repaying all debt with Bitcoin, making this strategy practical.
