Conor McGregor and Nayib #Bukele could meet to discuss a reserve of $BTC in Ireland:

Conor McGregor, the famous former UFC fighter, has taken an unexpected turn towards politics and the world of cryptocurrencies. Now, his ambition is not limited to the octagon: he wants to run for president of Ireland in the 2025 elections and, as part of his platform, has proposed creating a strategic Bitcoin reserve for his country.

This idea has captured the attention of key figures in the crypto ecosystem, including Max Keiser, a fervent advocate of Bitcoin and close advisor to the president of El Salvador, Nayib Bukele. Keiser has taken the initiative to organize a meeting between McGregor and Bukele, with the aim of exchanging ideas on how Ireland could follow in the footsteps of El Salvador, the first country to adopt Bitcoin as legal tender and that already holds more than 6,000 BTC in its national reserves.

Although the meeting does not have a confirmed date yet, there is a possibility that it will be held in Las Vegas, United States. The intention is for Bukele to share his experience on implementing pro-Bitcoin policies in El Salvador and how this approach could inspire McGregor in his project.

McGregor, for his part, has expressed on the social network X that "a Bitcoin reserve would empower the people's money," thus gaining the support of influential voices within the crypto world such as Anthony Pompliano, Jack Mallers, and Samson Mow.

However, his proposal has raised doubts, especially since Ireland has not shown official signs of wanting to adopt cryptocurrencies at the state level, and his own candidacy faces serious legal and political challenges.

Still, this attempt reflects the growing global interest in considering Bitcoin as a tool of financial sovereignty. Countries like Bhutan and the United States are already exploring the concept of strategic reserves in crypto assets, despite criticism regarding their volatility and the lack of clear regulation.
