    Governments don’t want crypto. Trump is only saying this because he is appealing to crypto investors and crypto bros. There is no way this is ever implemented.

      A large number of Democratic politicians just signed a letter saying they want the exact same thing. I just posted it in a comment, or you can search it. They released it on July 26th, 2024. I commented it yesterday.

      I think you underestimate the willingness of the sycophants in his administration to do his bidding.

      Governments do want BTC, and governments all around the world are holding it. Every year, governments hold more and more of it. This is public information. The fact that it disagrees with your imagination doesn’t change the facts.

        Governments hold all kinds of investments thats not relevant to what is being discussed. The above comment was talking about goverments using crypto as a reserve currency. Governments holding crypto would only be relevant if it was a majority of their investment portfolio which would be fucking insane.

          We shall see. At the moments both Dems and Republicans are discussing it, it is becoming a non-partisan issue as we speak. It is a matter of getting ahead of any other country that realizes its value and use. Citizens are welcome to come along for the ride and help equalize wealth inequality, or they can stay uneducated and bitter and stuck in the past.
