German Bundestag member Joana Cotar called on the German government to stop Bitcoin sales and keep Bitcoin as a reserve currency. Cotar supports the recognition of #Bitcoin as legal tender and its integration into Germany's mainstream financial system. It also aims to inform MPs about the benefits of Bitcoin by launching an educational initiative called “#Bitcoin im Bundestag”.

While Cotar's approach emphasizes the liberal and privacy-oriented nature of Bitcoin, it also states that a regulatory balance must be maintained. This initiative stands out as a stance against the European Central Bank's (ECB) digital euro project.

Cotar argues that Bitcoin's decentralized nature makes it a more suitable digital asset for Germany and suggests that Bitcoin mining could be used to stabilize the energy grid.
