MP urges BTC adoption for national stability, mirroring U.S. reserve strategy as global sentiment shifts.
Key Highlights:
• Swedish MP Rickard Nordin formally proposes Bitcoin as a foreign reserve asset.
• The move reflects a growing global trend of using BTC as a hedge against inflation and financial repression.
Yello ParadiseSquad, Bitcoin just got one step closer to central bank legitimacy, this time from the icy north. On April 8, Swedish lawmaker Rickard Nordin filed an official proposal urging the country’s Finance Minister to add Bitcoin to Sweden’s national reserves.
He didn’t just name-drop BTC as a fad. Nordin presented it as a store of value, an inflation hedge, and a modern equivalent to gold, urging Sweden to evolve beyond its traditional mix of fiat currencies and physical metals. In a world shifting toward digital frameworks and decentralized finance, the question wasn’t “why Bitcoin”—but “why not?”
Echoes of Trump’s National Bitcoin Reserve
If this sounds familiar, it’s because it mirrors President Trump’s 2024 executive order, which greenlit the creation of a U.S. Bitcoin reserve funded by confiscated criminal assets. That move signaled America’s first formal steps toward making Bitcoin part of its financial strategy, without using taxpayer money.
Now Sweden may follow suit, recommending a budget-neutral BTC acquisition model that maintains fiscal discipline while embracing digital value. And Sweden isn’t alone: the Czech National Bank is also exploring Bitcoin as a potential reserve diversification tool. When central banks start speaking this language, the world is no longer guessing, it’s transitioning.
Bitcoin: From Protest Asset to Policy Hedge
Nordin’s proposal doesn’t just cite market growth, it ties Bitcoin to human rights. In his words, BTC is a “tool for freedom fighters”, a borderless payment system immune to authoritarian control. It’s not just about inflation. It’s about independence—both political and monetary.
As digital money becomes part of strategic planning in Europe, the underlying message is clear: sovereign nations want protection from financial instability, and Bitcoin is increasingly part of that insurance.
