Vice President JD Vance advocates for a national Bitcoin reserve and increased adoption of Bitcoin in the U.S. during the Bitcoin 2025 Conference in Las Vegas.
He believes that China's aversion to Bitcoin presents an opportunity for the U.S. to lead in Bitcoin adoption and innovation.
Vance, known for his pro-Bitcoin stance, has invested between $250,000 and $500,000 in Bitcoin and sees it as an inflation hedge and protection against discrimination.
President Donald Trump's announcement of a Crypto Strategic Reserve in March and plans for a billion-dollar Bitcoin purchase by institutional players indicate a growing interest in integrating Bitcoin into the U.S. financial system.
