📢 Should governments create strategic reserves of Bitcoin?

In a bold move, the CEO of Coinbase, Brian Armstrong, urged world governments to allocate a portion of their foreign reserves to Bitcoin, describing cryptocurrencies as "the next chapter of capitalism."

🔍 These statements come at a time when some countries, especially those with emerging economies, are beginning to explore the idea of including Bitcoin in their official reserves as a hedge against:

high inflation 🧯

depreciation of the local currency 💸

the traditional dominance of the dollar in the global financial system 💵🌍

💼 What is the appropriate percentage of foreign reserves that can be allocated to Bitcoin?

Strategic opinion suggests:

1% to 5% at most initially 🔁

✅ Sufficient to provide a financial hedge

✅ Without exposing the national economy to severe volatility risks

🛡️ What safeguards should governments put in place to manage Bitcoin volatility?

1. A multi-asset reserve treasury (gold, currencies, Bitcoin, bonds)

2. Establishing digital sovereign funds to manage cryptocurrencies away from direct politics

3. Clear legislation to ensure transparency and accountability

4. Utilizing cold storage technologies to protect assets from hacking

5. Clear exit policies in case of a downturn in digital markets
