The Director of the U.S. Presidential Council on Digital Assets, Bo Hines, stated that a 'space race' has begun among countries to accumulate $BTC . According to him, the U.S. aims to be a leader in this competition, viewing the limited supply of Bitcoin as an incentive for swift action. Hines emphasized that the White House administration is working with the Treasury Department to verify existing Bitcoin holdings and develop budget-neutral methods for its acquisition to avoid additional burdens on taxpayers.
