Countries and Governments that Own Bitcoin

As the leading cryptocurrency continues its journey into the world of global finance, different countries and governments are beginning to add this digital asset to their national reserves. The U.S. takes the lead, with a holding of 213,246 Bitcoins. China follows, but with an enormous 190,000 Bitcoins, showing high interest and investment in cryptocurrency against its regulatory stance.

Next in line is the United Kingdom, which has a significant involvement and holding of 61,000 Bitcoins. The government of Germany is not left out either, with a 50,000 holding of Bitcoins, which is a strategic reply to new technologies in the monetary space. Ukraine, having experienced trying times, holds 46,351 Bitcoins, possibly seeing it as a stable asset amidst economic instability.

Smaller countries have also joined the race, with El Salvador holding 5,751 Bitcoins, Bhutan with 621 Bitcoins, and Venezuela holding 240 Bitcoins. Smaller states, such as Finland and Georgia, are also holders of 90 and 66 Bitcoins, respectively. The values are a clear testimony to the varied approaches that different governments and jurisdictions take towards Bitcoin, with each country potentially seeing the digital asset as a hedge against economic instability, an investment for the future, or a way to enhance financial sovereignty.
