<p>This surge in optimism, although <a href="https://www.cointribune.com/en/why-is-the-current-sentiment-around-bitcoin-so-negative/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">negative in June</a>, is not surprising given <strong>Trump’s effect on the markets</strong>, reinforcing the idea that Bitcoin is not just a digital currency but also <strong>a symbol of financial sovereignty</strong>.</p>
<h2 id="h-strategic-bitcoin-reserve-a-revolutionary-proposal">Strategic Bitcoin Reserve: A Revolutionary Proposal</h2>
<p>Trump’s speech was followed by <strong>an equally revolutionary proposal</strong> from pro-crypto senator <strong>Cynthia Lummis</strong>. She introduced <strong>a bill to create a strategic bitcoin reserve</strong>, where the U.S. government would purchase 5% of the world’s Bitcoin supply and hold it for at least 20 years.</p>
<p>This bill has sparked mixed reactions, but it shows a bold new approach to the digital economy:</p>
<ul>
 <li>A 5% Bitcoin reserve could protect the U.S. economy against traditional monetary fluctuations;</li>
 <li>This initiative would strengthen the United States’ position in the global cryptocurrency scene.</li>
</ul>

<p>This strategic vision could well <strong>redefine the contours of the global economy</strong>, putting the United States at the forefront of financial innovation and offering increased stability in the face of potential economic crises.</p>
<p>As for Bitcoin (BTC), the flagship cryptocurrency, it experienced <strong>a spectacular rise</strong> following Trump’s speeches at the Nashville Conference. At the time of writing this article, it is trading at <strong>$69,348</strong>. A potential <a href="https://www.cointribune.com/en/bitcoin-is-bouncing-back-but-how-far-will-it-go/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">return to its last ATH</a> of $73,800 is anticipated.</p>
