This article presents a speculative scenario in which the United States creates a strategic bitcoin reserve under the Trump administration, leading to a global shift towards bitcoin as a dominant global currency. The article describes how other countries would follow suit, central banks would scramble to accumulate bitcoin, and the price of bitcoin would surge. However, the rise of bitcoin would also cause fiat currencies to falter, leading to inflation and economic pain for citizens. The article suggests that retail investors who practice self-custody of their bitcoin would be the true winners in this scenario and highlights the importance of financial independence in an era of centralized control.
