The US keep pretending the old machinery still works while the numbers scream the opposite: debt past 120% of GDP; a balance sheet that multiplied itself by almost an order of magnitude; a currency that lost most of its purchasing power since it was cut loose from gold; rivals already moving trade onto neutral rails.
Bitcoin is the first monetary asset in a century that cannot be printed, seized through inflation, or manipulated through policy cycles. Fixed supply, global settlement, transparent ledger. A hard digital collateral that does not care about politics. That is exactly the type of asset a superpower needs when its own monetary foundation is eroding.
If the United States wants to remain the center of global finance, it needs to own a relative majority of the Bitcoin supply. Not as an ideological statement but as a technical requirement. Whoever controls the largest share of the hard digital base layer sets the tempo for the next financial architecture.
That's why:
If Washington stays passive, the drift continues. Asian trade shifts into digital yuan zones. Commodity exporters start benchmarking to neutral assets. The USD keeps losing trust. None of this requires a collapse: slow degradation is more than enough.
The only rational move is a quiet, phased accumulation. Build a reserve that is too large for adversaries to counter. Use it as collateral, liquidity support, or market stabilizer when needed. A strategic stockpile, not speculative asset.
A superpower that wants to stay a superpower needs to secure the monetary high ground early, not after losing it.
Bitcoin is the new high ground, and America should act before someone else does.

That's why:
- Monetary reinforcement. A USD partially backed by Bitcoin has a credible floor. Liquidity from fiat, scarcity from Bitcoin.
- Geopolitical leverage. China has trillions in fiat reserves but negligible Bitcoin. Russia is already using crypto channels to route around sanctions. BRICS want neutral settlement. If the U.S. does not dominate the neutral asset, someone else will.
- Infrastructure control. Digital settlement is scaling into trillions. If America does not integrate Bitcoin into its monetary toolkit, the future rails of value transfer will be built outside its influence. That would be the first real loss of financial hegemony since Bretton Woods.
