I am convinced I will pass Strategic Bitcoin Reserve legislation at the state level before @realDonaldTrump. The only way he wins is if he does an executive order the very first week he is in office.
The race is on.
Let the game theory begin.

The ongoing talks for Bitcoin adoption in the United States have revealed the deteriorating financial situation in most countries. The United States has seen its national debt spike to over $36 trillion, thus forcing the upcoming Trump administration to implement mechanisms to cut government spending through the DOGE program headed by tech billionaire Elon Musk and Vivek Ramaswamy.
More countries, including Japan, have seen their national debt-to-GDP ratio increase to over 100 percent, which is unsustainable for most governments. As a result, the adoption of a Bitcoin strategic reserve has been touted as the best route to fight the ballooning global debts, which is over $330 trillion.
The notable success of El Salvador in its Bitcoin adoption strategy over the past few years has significantly influenced other nation-states to implement favoring Bitcoin laws. Recently, Russia passed a national law that recognizes Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies as legal property.
The state of Bitcoin and digital assets is also changing in China following the approval of several spots Ether and BTC ETFs in Hong Kong. Additionally, several Chinese companies have adopted Bitcoin as a strategic reserve.
Market Impact

With the overall supply of Bitcoin on centralized exchanges at a multi-year low of about 2.27 million, Porter is confident that one day it will be virtually impossible to purchase Bitcoin from the secondary market.
Amid the mainstream adoption of crypto assets by institutional investors, it is safe to assume that Bitcoin price has more upside momentum in the coming months and decades.
