The Bitcoin Policy Institute (BPI) has released a report advocating for a strategic bitcoin reserve (SBR) to strengthen U.S. economic stability and global influence. Titled “Digital Gold: Evaluating a Strategic Bitcoin Reserve for the United States,” the report argues that holding BTC could support U.S. monetary stability, counter global financial threats, and advance technological leadership. According to BPI’s head of strategy, Matthew Pines, an SBR could “reinforce U.S. interests in an increasingly unstable and competitive global environment.”

The report outlines four key advantages: economic stability by hedging against monetary devaluation, geopolitical leverage amid rising digital currency alternatives, energy investments linked to bitcoin mining, and support for financial inclusion and democratic values. BPI suggests a phased acquisition approach, regulatory frameworks, and renewable energy integration for an effective SBR. The report is intended to inform policymakers and encourage a forward-thinking approach to digital asset reserves.
