U.S. President Trump’s Administrative Crypto Director Bo Hines announced that a global “space race” is ongoing, not for satellites, but for Bitcoin.
In a public meeting, Hines expressed the commitment of the management to establish the United States as a global leader in Bitcoin accumulation and innovation.
Hines, who said “We see Bitcoin as digital gold,” talked about the asset’s uniqueness, its fixed supply, and its increasing geopolitical importance. Hines stated that “there is a space race among nations to capture its value,” and mentioned that the management views Bitcoin not just as a financial asset, but as a strategic reserve similar to gold.
Hines referred to the recent administrative order regarding digital assets that recognize Bitcoin’s limited, commodity-like status. The directive outlines plans to create a “National Stock of Digital Assets” to accumulate Bitcoin through budget-independent means without burdening taxpayers, while also supporting innovation within the crypto ecosystem.
Hines said, “We want to move as quickly as possible” and added: “We don’t want to fall behind other nations. We want the United States, or at least our allies, to catch up in value.”
“We positioned ourselves as the Bitcoin superpower of the world,” he added.
