Nation State To Buy Bitcoin Worth ‘Billions’ Soon: Insider

David Bailey, the influential CEO of Bitcoin Magazine and a key organizer of the Bitcoin Conference, has made a compelling prediction about the future of Bitcoin (BTC) on a global scale. According to Bailey, the adoption of Bitcoin by nation-states is on the horizon, with potential investments amounting to billions of dollars in the near future. His insights, shared on social media platform X, highlight an emerging trend of Bitcoin nation-state adoption that is quietly unfolding behind the scenes.

Will Nation-States Buy Bitcoin Soon?

The conversation around nation-states purchasing Bitcoin is gaining momentum. Bailey has observed that several developing countries have embarked on domestic mining programs as experimental ventures. These initiatives, which began as pilots exceeding 100 megawatts, are now scaling up to gigawatt-level projects. “At this point, it seems like most developing nations have funded a domestic mining program as a test. Early movers are transitioning from 100+ MW pilots to GW scale projects,” Bailey noted.

The Transition to National BTC Reserves

Bailey envisions the next significant phase as the establishment of national Bitcoin reserves. This could be achieved through strategic stockpiles, central banks, or sovereign wealth funds. “Next will be… Establishing a national Bitcoin reserve either through a strategic stockpile, via the central bank, or via sovereign wealth funds. Many countries are discussing. The Overton window has shifted so dramatically on this topic, I think we’re just months away from a nation-state (or a few) entering the market in size (billions of dollars every month),” he explained.

David Bailey’s Influence on Bitcoin Policy

Bailey’s credibility in the Bitcoin community is bolstered by his active involvement in crafting pro-BTC and cryptocurrency policies at high governmental levels. As an insider, he has significantly contributed to advising Donald Trump’s 2024 presidential campaign on BTC-related policies. His advocacy efforts include pushing for the release of Ross Ulbricht, the founder of Silk Road, and proposing the creation of a national Bitcoin stockpile utilizing BTC seized by law enforcement agencies. Furthermore, Bailey organized a presidential roundtable focused on domestic BTC mining, which led to then-President Trump expressing a desire to “have all remaining Bitcoin” mined in the US.

Collective Efforts and Future Conferences

Over the weekend, Bailey emphasized the collective dedication that went into the US presidential election and the support for Donald Trump. “People have been working for 15 years to get Bitcoin to this point. So much has been sacrificed. So much lost along the way. Blood, sweat, and tears. On Tuesday, we can accelerate Bitcoin adoption by a decade. We can Free Ross. Respect the effort it took to get here by voting. One day of effort to change the course of history,” he urged.

In addition to his policy influence, Bailey maintains strong international connections through his role in organizing Bitcoin Conferences across various regions, including the United States, Europe, and the Middle East and North Africa (MENA) region. The inaugural MENA Conference is set for December 9-10, and Bailey has indicated that global leaders from the Middle East will convene to discuss Bitcoin as a strategic asset and envision a “globally sound monetary system.” He further remarked, “Sovereign BTC adoption in the MENA region will be one of the defining events of this epoch.”

The Current BTC Market Scenario

As of the latest reports, Bitcoin is trading at $69,117, demonstrating resilience above key support levels. The potential for increased nation-state participation in the Bitcoin market could further solidify its status as a global financial asset.
