Aiming at transforming the fiscal policy of the United States, Senator Cynthia Lummis (R-WY) has boldly presented a novel idea to create a strategic Bitcoin reserve. According to the proposal, which will be presented as law in the next days, the US government should buy one million Bitcoin over a five-year period, therefore accounting for around 5% of the total Bitcoin availability.

A Vision For Debt Reduction

The main goal of the strategic Bitcoin reserve is to help to reduce the country’s growing debt, which at $34.99 trillion right now is astounding. Lummis contends that by owning Bitcoin, the United States may have an asset that, by 2045 might halve the national debt.

Lummis said during her keynote speech at the Bitcoin 2024 conference, “establishing a strategic Bitcoin reserve will firmly safeguard the dollar’s place as the world’s reserve currency into the 21st century and ensure we remain the world leader in financial innovation.”

Funding And Security Measures

Following the best standards of physical and cybersecurity, the Act describes the building of a dispersed network of safe Bitcoin vaults run by the Treasury Department. Reallocating current money inside the Federal Reserve System and the Treasury Department will help to pay for Bitcoin.

This is the solution.

This is the answer.

— Senator Cynthia Lummis (@SenLummis) July 27, 2024

Lummis underlined that the strategic reserve will not only help the American economy but also guarantee that the dollar stays competitive in a changing worldwide financial scene. She compared the project to a “Louisiana Purchase moment,” implying it may change America’s budgetary plan without increasing taxes.

Protecting Financial Freedoms

The measure also guarantees that the strategic reserve won’t violate the self-custody rights of private Bitcoin holders, therefore affirming the preservation of personal financial liberties.

The statement follows the declaration of intention by former President Donald Trump stating his will to make the United States the “crypto capital of the world” should he be re-elected in November. Lummis’s remark also coincided with her recent criticism of the planned 30% excise tax on Bitcoin miners’ energy use by the government.

Serving on important Senate committees, Lummis keeps advocating concerns about lands, energy, natural resources, and digital assets. Her strategic Bitcoin reserve bill marks a daring move towards including cryptocurrencies into the national budgetary plan, therefore ushering a new era in American economic policy.

“We will no longer be holding US dollars and assets meant to devaluate at least 2% annually; we have the money today. Rather, Lummis said, we will be holding it in an asset that will appreciate.

Attendees found great resonance in the speech of the Wyoming senator, which ended with a rallying cry comparing the project to a legendary financial move: “This is the solution, this is the answer, this is our Louisiana Purchase moment. Thanks, Bitcoin!
