U.S. and China Leverage Bitcoin to Influence Global Finance

In a strategic move, the United States and China have amassed substantial Bitcoin reserves, using them as leverage in trade negotiations. The U.S. holds approximately 198,000 BTC seized through legal actions, while China possesses around 190,000 BTC fueled by its mining infrastructure dominance. This accumulation coincides with a temporary easing of tariffs between the two nations, resulting in a surge across cryptocurrency markets. This shift reflects differing approaches to Bitcoin’s role.
