— Cryptocurrency is establishing itself as the new safe haven
According to recent research, four out of five Americans prefer local asset diversification and advocate for converting a portion of U.S. gold reserves into Bitcoin. According to a recent study conducted by The Nakamoto Project, eighty percent of respondents wish for the United States to transform a part of its gold reserve into Bitcoin. With a total of 3,345 participants, the research attempted to determine what proportion of the gold reserve should be converted into Bitcoin. The majority advocated for a conversion between 1% and 30%; the median proposal was 10%.
Respondents were selected according to U.S. Census demographics, including age, gender, race, income, education level, and location. The online survey was conducted from February to mid-March, and participants were compensated for their time.
Some questioned the reliability of the findings, suggesting they would only reflect the opinions of Bitcoin advocates. However, Troy Cross, one of the co-founders, highlighted that the figures indicated that respondents did not show an exclusive preference for gold when both assets were considered equally.
The most significant allocations of Bitcoin were more accessible to younger individuals, which aligns with previous research on the relationship between age and Bitcoin ownership. Dennis Porter, co-founder of the Satoshi Action Fund, noted that the survey evidence the trend of Americans towards various investment strategies and their growing disinterest in gold.
With Bitcoin reserves reaching approximately 207,189 BTC, just under 3% of the value of gold, the United States possesses more than 8,133 tons of gold, valued at over $830 billion. There is considerable potential for diversification.
Bo Hines, White House advisor, has proposed a plan in which the income generated from gold reserves would be used to acquire Bitcoin, possibly accumulating up to one million BTC over a period of five years. This idea supports a proposal contained in the Bitcoin Act of 2025, presented by Senator Lummis. Previously, Robert F. Kennedy Jr. had advocated for the notion of matching Bitcoin reserves with national gold reserves.
