As the US and others explore Bitcoin reserves, India faces a pivotal choice: Can BTC boost macro resilience and digital leadership?
The global push for Bitcoin as a reserve asset is gaining speed, with the US leading the way by establishing a Strategic Bitcoin Reserve in January 2025. By March, an executive order was signed to begin structuring the reserve, signaling a shift in policy direction.
The Strategic Bitcoin Reserve in the US will be funded by Bitcoin (BTC) confiscated from criminal activities and company bankruptcies. The Department of Justice (DOJ) and the US Marshals Service will manage these assets. This action demonstrates a strategic decision to treat Bitcoin as a long-term store of value, similar to digital gold, rather than a short-term asset.
