LATEST: Metaplanet CEO Believes US Bitcoin Strategy May Start International Race

Metaplanet CEO Simon Georvich anticipates a global surge in Bitcoin demand if the United States establishes a Bitcoin Strategic Reserve. On X, he noted the potential for a chain reaction, where nations vie to stockpile Bitcoin early, benefiting from lower costs than those who delay. Georvich argues this could spark a “global domino effect,” with countries racing to adopt Bitcoin to avoid later, steeper prices.

Expanding on his vision, Georvich highlighted the broader geopolitical implications during a discussion hosted by Bitcoin Magazine. Should the U.S. under Donald Trump make this move, it may set a global precedent, influencing nations like Japan, which often align with U.S. policies. This strategic decision could also bolster economies in developing countries by stabilizing their currencies.

Despite Gerovich’s optimism, skepticism persists within the crypto community. CryptoQuant CEO Ki Young Ju questions the feasibility of this move, comparing it to past unsuccessful campaigns for a return to the gold standard. Market sentiment remains cautious, with a low likelihood of this policy materializing in the near term.
