#BTCReserveStrategy The BTC reserve strategy refers to the deliberate accumulation and management of Bitcoin (BTC) by governments or institutions as a strategic asset, akin to traditional reserves like gold or foreign currencies. This approach aims to leverage Bitcoin's properties—such as its fixed supply, decentralization, and global liquidity—to enhance financial stability and economic sovereignty.
