Simon Dixon, a cryptocurrency investor and influencer, has advocated for European Union nations to adopt Bitcoin reserves. He suggests this move would reduce reliance on the European Central Bank's (ECB) policies as it progresses with a central bank digital currency. Dixon expressed his views in a January 30 post on X.

"Let the ECB roll out their CBDC while EU nations hedge against EUR control with Bitcoin reserves in their own treasuries—breaking free from the ECB's Fed-first, treasonous policies," said Dixon, crypto investor and influencer.

According to CoinDesk, the Czech National Bank has approved a proposal to explore diversifying its reserves into additional asset classes. Governor Aleš Michl introduced the initiative and has shown interest in potentially adding Bitcoin to the bank’s balance sheet. However, this proposal faces opposition from the country's finance minister and ECB President Christine Lagarde, who said that Bitcoin would not be included in any EU central bank’s assets.

Reuters reports that European Central Bank board member Piero Cipollone said a digital euro is necessary to counter U.S. President Donald Trump's push for stablecoins. Trump’s executive order supports global adoption of dollar-backed stablecoins, which Cipollone argued could draw customers away from banks. He emphasized that this strengthens the case for an ECB-backed digital currency, which would function as an online wallet managed by financial institutions.

Forbes highlights that by 2025, Bitcoin is becoming a geopolitical asset, with governments and central banks worldwide discussing its role in national reserves. Under President-elect Donald Trump's administration, Bitcoin is being considered as a strategic reserve asset, with proposals for a U.S. Bitcoin reserve aimed at enhancing economic stability and hedging against inflation. Supporters like Senator Cynthia Lummis argue that Bitcoin’s finite supply makes it ideal for national reserves.

Dixon has invested in over 100 crypto companies, including Kraken and Coinbase. He creates crypto content on X and YouTube and serves as CEO and co-founder of BnkToTheFuture, a regulated crypto securities business.
