The Bitcoin Policy Institute (BPI) urges the U.S. to take a leading role in shaping the future of blockchain infrastructure. The think tank, comprised of economists, technologists, and scientists, stresses Bitcoin’s strategic importance as a national reserve asset and advocates for establishing a U.S. Strategic Bitcoin Reserve. BPI’s manifesto emphasizes Bitcoin’s potential as a force for national security and aligns with growing policy shifts, including the proposed reserve. The institute’s focus on real-world applications of blockchain technology distinguishes it from other groups, offering detailed research that goes beyond speculation and hype. This advocacy has been bolstered by recent initiatives: President Trump’s executive order regarding seized Bitcoin assets, which reflects BPI’s focus on Bitcoin as a national asset, echoes the institute’s core tenets. The potential impact on U.S. economic strategies is significant, aligning with the broader shift towards digital monetary systems. BPI’s research aims to solidify this new paradigm, shaping global policy and fostering a more favorable ecosystem for blockchain technology in the US and beyond.
