3k Hi, I’m a UK Bitcoiner and I love the show. I wanted to mention the Buhtan Bitcoin accumulation. I personally don’t see this as a success story. I don’t think government having a lot of power is good and therefore I don’t particularly like strategic reserves in government because it just empowers them and keeps them big. Obviosuly Bitcoin is for enemies so it doesn’t keep me up at night but it’s why I am happy that the UK is avoiding a Bitcoin strategic reserve. I feel like this is an unpopular opinion so I’m interested in what you think.
