On 21 Dec 2024, Michael Saylor shared his proposal, the digital assets framework, & said that the framework can make a crystal clear path for the US’s financial position to grow with strong dominance.Saylor believes that his proposal can help to create the best policies to strengthen the US dollar & help the US economy to increase wealth between $16 trillion and $81 trillion, which further helps the US government to reduce the debt pressure.
A strategic digital asset policy can strengthen the US dollar, neutralize the national debt, and position America as the global leader in the 21st-century digital economy—empowering millions of businesses, driving growth, and creating trillions in value. https://t.co/7n7jQqPkf1

A similar kind of proposal, the “Bitcoin Strategic Reserve Act”, is also in discussion, proposed by the Bitcoin-friendly US Senator Cynthia Lummis from Wyoming. Notably, Saylor’s digital assets framework failed to mention the Bitcoin Strategic Reserve Act.Just three days ago, Lummis praised her Bitcoin Act as a way to create wealth & offset US debt.
The national debt grows every day thanks to Washington’s spending addiction. My strategic bitcoin reserve constructs a resilient financial system to eliminate the debt. We need the #BITCOINAct ! https://t.co/nQtI4RuQ6F
