Bitcoin has surpassed $103,000, prompting discussions about a possible surge beyond its all-time high. Governments in the United States, Japan, and Russia are expressing interest in integrating Bitcoin into their national financial systems. The US plans to create a national Bitcoin reserve, aiming to acquire one million Bitcoin within five years to address its national debt and establish itself as a leader in the digital economy. Japan is considering converting a portion of its foreign reserves into Bitcoin to enhance financial independence and promote blockchain innovation. In Russia, a lawmaker has proposed creating a national Bitcoin reserve to shield the country's economy from Western sanctions. However, the volatility and regulatory challenges associated with Bitcoin pose risks for governments considering its adoption.
