## Resource

What if Russia buys 1-5 million Bitcoin before the United States? Today we break down a viral post from Max Keiser that sparked a fascinating discussion about nation-state Bitcoin adoption. Is Russia quietly positioning itself for a strategic Bitcoin reserve? Could cheap energy, low sovereign debt, and growing legal recognition of Bitcoin give it an unexpected advantage? More importantly, what happens if the next Bitcoin race isn't between companies… but between governments? We also discuss the U.S. Strategic Bitcoin Reserve, why legal clarity matters before countries accumulate Bitcoin, and how Bitcoin's fixed supply could reshape geopolitical competition over the coming decade. 📺 Prefer video?
