Just In: Brazil’s Congress Introduces Bill To Create Strategic Bitcoin Reserve

Brazil’s Congress Introduces Bill To Create Strategic Bitcoin Reserve

Member of Brazil’s Chamber of Deputies Eros Biondini has introduced a bill to create a Strategic Bitcoin Reserve. As highlighted in the Bill, Bidoni proposes that the country allocate up to 5% of international reserves to buy Bitcoin and diversify its national assets.

The Congressman also sees the ‘Bitcoin Strategic Sovereign Reserve’ as a way to hedge against exchange rate fluctuations and geopolitical risks. The country could buy up to $3 billion worth of BTC if Congress eventually passes this bill.

This is bullish for the Bitcoin price, seeing how countries are opening up to the idea of adopting the flagship crypto as a reserve asset. Brazil looks to be following in the footsteps of countries like El Salvador and Bhutan, which have already adopted a Bitcoin strategyy.

It is worth mentioning that the US is also likely to create this Strategic Bitcoin Reserve when President-elect Donald Trump comes into office on January 20, 2025.
