According to PANews, Bitcoin Magazine CEO David Bailey highlighted the increasing adoption of Bitcoin by countries and institutions during a recent interview. He shared data indicating that approximately 50 countries are now involved in Bitcoin mining through public-private partnerships. Some nations have achieved mining scales of several hundred megawatts or even gigawatts. For instance, Bhutan's Bitcoin mining revenue now accounts for over 50% of its GDP.
Bailey also predicted that more sovereign nations would purchase Bitcoin through sovereign wealth funds or other means this year. Currently, around 700,000 Bitcoins are held by Bitcoin-related securities, a figure that is expected to rise significantly.
Furthermore, Bailey noted that companies like MicroStrategy are increasingly adopting asset securitization strategies to acquire Bitcoin. Approximately 200 companies have already implemented similar strategies, and this trend is anticipated to expand further in the future.
