Everything you wanted to know about Bitcoin Strategic Reserve

[avp2306]

There is one thing I like or will I say one thing I love so much about this country USA, they are very smart and very strategic when it comes to something very important and beneficial.

With the pressure some countries and individual are putting to hold Bitcoin, I think it will make the price of Bitcoin to pump more and this will make some small investor not to invest especially those that are not using the DCA method.

As soon as it concerns money, even the most "sickly" officials in the US immediately keep their nose to the wind. None of them will pass by an opportunity. Here they already have all this intuition about finances in their blood. And sensible ideas immediately appear and many other positive things. This is the mentality of capitalists. Everything is in perfect order here.

I guess its not only about that since somehow you need to adopt on the changes happening so that you will not fall around. What this officials do is right because they show that they are not old timers and can adopt with the technology. There's lots of things to take advantage on Bitcoin and its good that they see it that's why right now we are seeing them doing good laws to make their adoptions set in good places.

With right sets of leader aiming for growth we could see Bitcoin prosper more. I'm excited more about the ongoing developments of their Strategic Reserves since some good progress happening. More to come and this is beneficial on everyone especially those who hold Bitcoins for long term.

Bitcoin is decentralized in nature and have been doing great before the US brought up this policy of establishing a strategic reserve,after all it's for there own good and for the overall best interest of their country economy. Countries that are adopting Bitcoin as a strategic reserve isn't doing so because the US first initiated this policy rather it's because of the potential and performance of Bitcoin over the years and how holding it will profits them in the long run. What's the points of taking glory over an asset your not in control of. I was expecting a celebration from the US after they must have succeeded in enacting a federal strategic Bitcoin Reserve and shouldn't be celebrating a policy they haven't yet succeeded in achieving a positive results on their end.

However,Everyone can participate in investing in Bitcoin wether you're a low or high income Earners. With DCA ,a small investor can still  buy Bitcoin with the available funds at his disposal regardless of the pump in price in Bitcoin. With his discretional income no matter how low it is,a small investor can still be accumulating Bitcoin weekly or monthly without been affected with the current price of Bitcoin in the market. DCA strategy have made it possible and convenient for all individuals to participate in investing in Bitcoin with ease.

I saw today an interesting article about Nation States hodling ETF on Bitcoin.
Therse aren’t necessarily Bitcoin Strtategic Reserve, but as along as sovereign are exposed to (a lesser version of) Bitcoin, who am I to disagree?
I will craft something and I will post it later today.

I just found out about this from you and went to do some digging
And realised one of the fore runners is the state of Wisconsin (just knew about the state today)
I know choosing to take the route of ETF is easier and looks pretty on government due to their well regulated environment
But ETF isn't Bitcoin.
But truth been told they don't really need Bitcoin for is decentralized or ability to give control of wealth
But because of it's potential and appreciating qualities.






We Crossed ATH in USD today
Congratulations to all the Hodlers.

While thinking about reserves in Bitcoin, a question came to my mind:

🔹How safe are reserves in Bitcoin?
🔹Holding Bitcoin will yield a lot of profit, it is certain, but how unstable is
     the future of Bitcoin?
🔹If I were the government of a country, would I really keep Bitcoin in
     reserve?

🔹And if I did, what are the first things I should prioritize?

While looking for answers to these questions, I was looking for some opinions about Bitcoin from those who research cryptocurrencies or who make important contributions to the world economy, what they said about Bitcoin,,,


From there, some of their words about Bitcoin are mentioned below—

Positive comments about Bitcoin-


▫️Michael Saylor, founder of MicroStrategy_
He has called on the US government to acquire 20 to 25 percent ownership in Bitcoin and he has described Bitcoin as a strategic asset of the United States.
He told the US government – “If you own 4-6 million Bitcoins, you can pay off the national debt”.

Source- Cointelegraph


▫️Robert Kiyosaki, author of the book “Rich Dad Poor Dad”_
Robert Kiyosaki has called for Bitcoin to be considered a safe haven alongside gold and silver in the face of the global financial crisis.
He also said, “Fiat currency is not safe” and people need to be self-reliant, to save you and your family, you need to save gold, silver and Bitcoin.

Source- financialexpress.com


▫️Anthony Scaramucci, founder of SkyBridge Capital_
Anthony Scaramucci has predicted that the price of Bitcoin will reach $180,000-200,000 by the end of 2025 and it will constantly exceed its price. He also said that since it is a fixed supply, people will have more confidence in it.

Source- theaustralian.com


▫️Elon Musk, CEO of Tesla and SpaceX_
He has called Bitcoin a better currency than paper currency. He uses Bitcoin in his businesses SpaceX and Tesla.

Source- cryptorank.io


▫️Donald Trump, President of the United States_
     He has described Bitcoin as a strategic reserve.

Source- thescottishsun.co.uk



Negative comments


▫️Warren Buffett, CEO of Berkshire Hathaway_
He has called Bitcoin a gambling token and said about Bitcoin – “Bitcoin is not a productive asset and has no intrinsic value.”

Source- foxbussiness.com


▫️Ray Dalio, founder of Bridgewater Associates_
He has expressed doubts about Bitcoin’s privacy and government regulation.
He has given more priority to gold than Bitcoin.

Source-investopedia.com


▫️Jamie Dimon, CEO of JPMorgan Chase_
He has personally called Bitcoin “worthless” and “pet rock”.
But now his bank has allowed their clients to buy Bitcoin.

Source- investopedia.com


Although the negative comments could not affect the price of Bitcoin that much, on the contrary, Bitcoin’s acceptance is increasing day by day among people.
I think that to make Bitcoin more acceptable among people, the number of Bitcoin holders should be increased. Bitcoin cannot be managed by any one person or group, that is, Bitcoin’s equal distribution policy should be followed. Otherwise, the price of Bitcoin cannot be stabilized.


What answer did I get from the above comments?

▪️How safe is the reserve in Bitcoin?

-   Since most of the economically rich countries in the world are prioritizing Bitcoin as their reserve asset and large financial institutions are hoarding Bitcoin, I think reserves in Bitcoin are largely safe.

▪️Holding Bitcoin will yield a lot of profit, but how volatile is the future of Bitcoin?

-   Yes, it is true that the more profit something gives, the more risk it carries, but the interest of the general public in Bitcoin and the determination of people to collect it make it seem that the future of Bitcoin is very good.

▪️If I were the government of a country, would I really keep Bitcoin in reserve?

-   If I were the government of a country, I would keep a large portion of Bitcoin as a strategic asset in my country’s reserve.

My opinion?

Why would I keep Bitcoin in reserve?
🔸 Bitcoin is a valuable currency whose amount is fixed, so I will keep it in reserve Bitcoin.
🔸 The popularity of Bitcoin is increasing day by day and the rate at which people are interested in Bitcoin, so the price of Bitcoin will exceed our imagination, so I will keep it in reserve Bitcoin in the hope of making more profit.
🔸 Looking at the past, I have seen that the rate of increase in the price of Bitcoin is much higher than other valuable things, so I will keep it in reserve Bitcoin.
🔸 I think that in the past, there will be no fiat for exchange, then the demand for Bitcoin will be the highest, so I will keep it in reserve Bitcoin.

Why should I not keep Bitcoin in reserve?
🔸 Sometimes it has been seen that the price of Bitcoin is fluctuating by some people or groups, that is, Bitcoin is still limited to a group, so Bitcoin should not be kept in reserve.
🔸 If the country is not financially stable then we should not keep Bitcoin in our reserves.
🔸 Since Bitcoin is a completely digital currency and it has to be managed technically, If a country is technologically backward, it should not hold Bitcoin in its reserves.

All things considered, it seems to me that if a country wanted to, it could hold 70% of its reserves in Bitcoin.

How safe do you think reserves in Bitcoin are?

But ETF isn't Bitcoin.
<…>

I do agree, of course: ETF are not bitcoins.
ETF give only exposure to the most boring of all the bitcoin feature: the price.

The full potential of bitcoin manifest itself with a (self)custody in the physical form.
We still have to admit thou, the direct possession of BTC is difficult for a nation state.
So, we can admit some "intermediate" solution like ETF, hoping they are getting ready to own bitcoin in the right format.

Love the second line. Price is a side effect of what it can offer.
ETF is one of the approach that would make sense normally in been invested by the Government.
ETF can still offer them what they need from Bitcoin
The reason ETF is considered lesser is only appealing and needed by citizens.
This just opened the door to alternative to countries that don't want to face the stress of holding their Bitcoin.

Sniped

From the list of name, The one that's worth mentioning in the positive is Saylor
And maybe Kiyosaki for been consistent in years
Trump is well Trump
Elon Musk supports Doge not Bitcoin.
Can't forget he went back on his words and stopped Tesla from accepting Bitcoin.

Since most of the economically rich countries in the world are prioritizing Bitcoin as their reserve asset and large financial institutions are hoarding Bitcoin, I think reserves in Bitcoin are largely safe.

Not really many are still skeptical and watching first like the EU.
Bitcoin still has its flaws but what we have currently is way worse.
So had say Bitcoin reserve is safer than been slowly bled by Fiat

Bitcoin is a valuable currency whose amount Supply is fixed

FTFY

so I will keep it in reserve Bitcoin in the hope of making more profit.

Countries are usually adopting this so it can serve as an hedge against inflation and economic instability but gains wouldn't be ruled out.

Bitcoin is a completely digital currency and it has to be managed technically, If a country is technologically backward, it should not hold Bitcoin in its reserves.

I have some issues with most of your reason not to but this caught me more
Except you are mining or running a node, you don't need to know about it's technicality.
Importance is learning to protect your private keys and perform basic task send and receive.
The level of technological development doesn't stop this.

All things considered, it seems to me that if a country wanted to, it could hold 70% of its reserves in Bitcoin

Too reckless. A country investing is different from an individual investing
Fiat is one of their weapons to control the economy. They can't control Bitcoin is self
So going 70% is too reckless to me.

How safe do you think reserves in Bitcoin are?

Safer than Fiat.

Tom Emmer a US lawmaker in the house of Representative have propose a bill before the house to protect Bitcoin software developers from any legal attacks. This bill if passed into law will protect the rights of Bitcoin coders from any sorts of malicious legal harassment. For me, this is a welcome development.

I don't know where you get your stats about bitcoin's market cap, but the last i checked, bitcoin's market cap was more than 2.2 Trillion based on current prices that are greater than $111k per coin.. .give that the total bitcoin supply is around 19.86 million at the time of this post.

of course it's not such an exciting ath and I don't know where we'll end up

Got confused also about the marketcap since even the figures he give on amazon is wrong. This site https://companiesmarketcap.com/assets-by-market-cap/ provide also their market cap and positions in the list.

And its amazing to see Bitcoin breaking new levels then it surpass amazon and next target would provably to surpass Apple and I believe it will happen soon especially that Bitcoin became an asset that  investor want to acquire.

For sure more demands would came on Bitcoin which provably would help it to hit new ATH and surpass those companies at the top on that list.

[Derekfunds]

Bitcoin hit new all time high ( ATH) $111k plus in the crypto space and I strongly believe it is still going to hit several ATH before this year runs out. I was going through my X when I saw this image above and indeed that is really incredible, the new all time high doesn't just make Bitcoin a promising asset but rather it is also increase the potential of Bitcoin and making it break records and with time it will surpass these... I think a very big mistake someone who is into the crypto space will make is trading Bitcoin instead of holding it.

Can we know where do you found this data? Or did you make the typing mistake such as instead of the 2 you put the 1 in both marketcap?

If not, then stop relying on social media for data collection because in most cases, social media is filled with false information and rumors. You can check the official websites for data verification. In this case, I will suggest you two trusted sites - coinmarketcap for cryptocurrency market and companiesmarketcap for all assets.

This was my personal typing mistake. One was mistakenly written instead of two. However, the Bitcoin market is always changing, so market information can change at any time. At the time I wrote the Bitcoin market cap, the price of Bitcoin was around 107k. Currently, Bitcoin is hovering around 112k, so the Bitcoin market will definitely grow. However, if this growth continues, Bitcoin will soon surpass Apple's market and move to the fourth best position.

[ultrloa]

Bitcoin will soon surpass Apple's market and move to the fourth best position.

For sure we are going there especially that Bitcoin already proves that it can break more caps the surpass many company already from the past. For take over Amazon it shows strong movement of it, also strong support of people on Bitcoin.

I believe there would be more figures will be added on marketcap especially that there are more Strategic Bills are yet to pass and I'm somehow confident that once those bills will get approve it will help Bitcoin to get more demand globally. Let's see how long it will last before it takes over Apple since this is another good achievement reached by Bitcoin if that time happens.

I find these comparisons in total market cap quite misleading.
Amazon, Apple or any other cash flow generating asset are hardly comparable with a digital commodity like bitcoin.
Still, the value preservation of Bitcoin will generate powerful tidal waves in asset allocation when it will surpass gold market capitalisation.

Of course for bitcoin to add around another $1 trillion, then that would be nearly a 50% rise in the current prices, so maybe somewhere in the $150k arena, we will see bitcoin with a supra $3 trillion market cap and starting to get close to challenging any of the current 2nd, 3rd and 4th place holders, even though some of them could go up or down during the time that bitcoin is reaching those areas. maybe we will see these contentions anywhere between bitcoin's prices starting at $150k, but it could even take until bitcoin reaches $200k or higher before passing the 2nd, 3rd and 4th place contenders, but at the same time, we might not get sustainable UPpity in that price range either.

Wondering what this news has to do with a Bitcoin Strategic Reserve and what made you feel the urge to post it here.

Also copying and pasting a press release without any personal consideration does little help to the discussion.
I don't want to be harsh, but definitely a reminder to self moderate next thread.

Price difference between EUR and USD relative to Bitcoin- 2025 = (93,148.94-85,614.83) =  7534.11


Dollar inflation against Bitcoin from 2020 to 2025:  (7534.11 – 1438.28) =  6095.83

That is, if the current price of each Bitcoin compared to the Euro is (11,566.98+6095.83)=17,662.81 or close to it, then we would say that the price of Bitcoin has not increased compared to the Euro. But if you look at the current price of Bitcoin, you will see that the price of Bitcoin is much higher than 17662.81 dollars.
Currently, the price of Bitcoin is 1 Bitcoin 110600$.

So you have to admit that the price of Bitcoin has increased much more compared to everything, whether it is the Dollar or the Euro.


On the other hand ,
Of the Bitcoins that have been detected among Bitcoin holders to date, the US Bitcoin reserves are many times higher than those of Europe.

This decline in the value of the dollar relative to Bitcoin is not at all a surprise for the US, from here on out, when people use cryptocurrencies instead of fiat currency in the coming years, it will be seen that the decline in the value of the US dollar will not have a major impact on the US economy.
Even at the peak of the global economy, the US Bitcoin reserves will keep the US economy strong.
