Since Donald Trump won the US presidential election, the price of Bitcoin has seen a significant rise, revitalizing global interest in the leading Cryptocurrency. This trend not only reflects the optimism of the markets, but also the beginning of a new era of strategic Bitcoin accumulation, both by governments and the private sector.
A Bitcoin as a strategic reserve?
The recent announcement that the United States intends to acquire 5% of the total Bitcoin circulation during the Trump presidency has marked a milestone in the history of cryptocurrencies. This movement, which seeks to position the country as a leader in digital reserves, is triggering a global race to secure Bitcoin as a strategic asset.
Countries such as Brazil, Argentina and Russia have begun to seriously evaluate similar strategies. In a context of global economic uncertainty, many governments seem to consider Bitcoin as a solid alternative to diversify their reserves and protect against inflationary risks.
Private sector: the frenetic accumulation
While governments advance their plans, the private sector is not far behind. MicroStrategy, the company led by Michael Saylor, has led this wave of accumulation, buying Bitcoin aggressively. Companies and institutional investors around the world are following suit, further increasing pressure on the cryptocurrency’s limited supply.
This buying frenzy is raising a fundamental question: will there be enough Bitcoin to go around? With a fixed maximum supply of 21 million units, scarcity is intrinsic to Bitcoin’s design. According to estimates, more than 90% of Bitcoins have already been mined, and the last ones are expected to be generated around the year 2140.
Who will buy the last Bitcoin?
Growing demand from governments, businesses and individuals alike poses an obvious challenge: as Bitcoin establishes itself as a globally valuable asset, competition to acquire it could intensify further. This could lead to an exponential increase in its price, creating entry barriers for new participants.
Are we seeing the first steps of a digital economy where Bitcoin becomes the cornerstone of global reserves? Or will its limited and decentralized nature end up excluding some players from this race?
The only thing that is certain is that the clock is ticking and with each block mined, the supply becomes scarcer. The race for the last Bitcoin is not just a numbers game; It is a strategic battle for the future of money.
