The U.S. crypto task force is considering the creation of a national Bitcoin (BTC) reserve, a move that could trigger a global wave of Bitcoin accumulation by governments, according to a research report by brokerage firm Bernstein.

A Global Bitcoin Arms Race?
Analysts, led by Gautam Chhugani, noted that if the U.S. officially adopts Bitcoin as a reserve asset, it could push other nations to follow suit, fueling demand and increasing BTC’s status as a strategic financial asset.

Key Structural Questions Remain
The formation of a U.S. Bitcoin reserve raises several critical policy and financial questions, Bernstein’s report highlighted:

Who will buy Bitcoin? Will it be the Federal Reserve or the U.S. Treasury? If the Fed takes charge, it would require legislative approval.
How will Bitcoin purchases be funded? Options include issuing new debt or even selling some of the country’s gold reserves to finance the acquisition.
What about confiscated Bitcoin? The U.S. government already holds $20 billion worth of Bitcoin, seized from criminal enterprises. This stash could be added to the national reserve.
Sovereign Wealth Fund and Crypto Investments
The report also pointed to the Trump administration’s proposal to establish a U.S. Sovereign Wealth Fund (SWF), which could invest in key American crypto companies and market leaders.

Bernstein advised investors to prepare for the next bull market in Bitcoin and Bitcoin-related equities, predicting that government adoption would drive significant market growth.

With the U.S. potentially leading the charge, a global race among nations to stockpile Bitcoin could be on the horizon, further solidifying the cryptocurrency’s role in the future of global finance.
