The Coinbase CEO also emphasized that the recent all-time high in Bitcoin’s value was largely due to Donald Trump’s inauguration. He argued that Bitcoin could potentially serve as a modern gold standard. He said, “Bitcoin is a better form of money than gold… For a store-of-value, it’s important governments hold bitcoin over time.” Additionally, he believes that BTC price could reach ‘multiple million’ under Trump’s leadership as the crypto president understands core value of blockchain. He also suggested a U.S. strategic Bitcoin reserve, arguing that it would strongly promote cryptocurrencies at an institutional level. Armstrong believes that creating such a reserve would encourage other major economies, particularly those in the G20, to explore similar options. His reasoning is that when a leading global economy like the U.S. supports Bitcoin, other nations will likely recognize and consider its benefits. Brian said, “‘To have a leader of the largest GDP country in the world come out undeniably and say that he wants to be the first crypto president.” Polymarket Gives 35% Chance of Bitcoin Reserve Crypto investors are hopeful that Trump will set up a national bitcoin reserve, following his announcement of such plans in July 2024.
