đŸ”„ CZ says one thing—crypto could split into camps

CZ has just made a proposal that’s controversial enough to cause a stir: if a country builds a crypto reserve, he usually leans toward stablecoins—choosing the 5 largest cryptos by market cap and allocating them according to their market cap. This formula could make BTC take up more than 50%, ETH around 10–20%, and BNB would also show up.

Sounds very bullish.

But I have another question:

👉 If the goal is to protect the domestic currency, why prioritize crypto over gold?

If a country wants to preserve the strength of its currency, it doesn’t just need an asset that can appreciate.

It needs something that can serve as reserve assets, provide liquidity, diversify risk, and support confidence in the monetary system.

And here, gold still has a very different position. đŸ„‡

It’s not by chance that central banks keep accumulating gold. Even the Czech National Bank has recently researched both gold and Bitcoin: they continue targeting 100 tons of gold, while deciding not to include BTC in foreign exchange reserves yet, because Bitcoin’s characteristics and history are still full of uncertainty.

BTC could be “digital gold”.

But calling it digital gold doesn’t mean it has already played the same role as gold in a country’s reserve system.

And this is where I want to take sides:

🟠 TEAM BTC:
“Bitcoin is scarce, decentralized, and can’t be printed. Why hold gold when there’s a better digital asset?”

đŸ„‡ TEAM GOLD:
“A national reserve isn’t a degen’s account. A currency needs a layer of stable assets—not something that can swing by dozens of percentage points.”

💀 The pragmatic camp:
“Why do we have to choose one? Keep USD + gold + BTC + other assets—each one does a different job.”

Personally, I lean toward the third camp.
