This is from the article linked below.
Luke Gorman discussed how he believes the United States really can separate itself from China and Russia if it adopted Bitcoin as a soveriegn reserve.
In this video I discuss this viewpoint and how it would give a massive leg up on settlements.

If they manage to store their reserves in #Bitcoin, they will surely have a plus that other nations do not have right now and will not have in the short term either.
You are right lot's of country accept bitcoin
What are your thoughts on using something like Monero? What is scaring me lately is the whole transparency factor. They can trace you down to an identity, and with Gensler coming out and trying to claim all ETH transactions are US based transactions. Means they can do that if the US takes control of the Bitcoin hashrate. I feel Monero can be more decentralized at this point than Bitcoin, plus you can't trace it.
But lately I have been in survival mode so it's all just money to get the things I need anyway.
A threat? Perhaps. A bubble? No! How about viewing BTC as an opportunity? That's how Gromen sees it.

greetings @taskmaster4450
no doubt for many of the crypto detractors this is crazy but it will be a strong decision and will bring more confidence to the crypto world
Summary:
In this video transcript, Task discusses an article from Finbolt centered around comments made by macro economist Luke Grohmann regarding Bitcoin. Grohmann suggests that adopting Bitcoin could benefit the U.S. in creating an economic boom by potentially disrupting the bond market. He argues that Bitcoin could serve as a barometer for liquidity and proposes that if the U.S. were to settle transactions with Bitcoin internationally, it could significantly transform economic dynamics, especially in comparison to China and Russia's gold strategies. Task emphasizes the importance of fast settlement in the financial system and illustrates how Bitcoin's efficiency in settling transactions could revolutionize global trade and liquidity. He points out the challenges of settling with physical assets like gold compared to the ease of using Bitcoin.
Detailed Article:
Task delves into the realm of economics, particularly focusing on the adoption of cryptocurrency from the perspective of macro economist Luke Grohmann. He starts by expressing his skepticism towards economists in general, citing their reluctance to embrace cryptocurrencies due to the limitations of fitting them into traditional economic models. Task suggests that economists tend to view cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin as just another asset class, rather than recognizing their potential as mediums of exchange and stores of value that can revolutionize liquidity and settlement processes.
Grohmann's unique stance on Bitcoin catches Task's attention as he outlines the economist's argument that the U.S. could benefit economically by incorporating Bitcoin into its financial system. Grohmann proposes that if the U.S. were to use Bitcoin for settlements, it could potentially disrupt the bond market and create a competitive advantage against countries like China and Russia, which are stockpiling gold. Task underscores the significance of speed and efficiency in settlement processes, contrasting the complexities of handling physical assets like gold with the ease and quickness of settling transactions using Bitcoin.
Task further explores the implications of widespread adoption of Bitcoin, highlighting the potential for major transformations in international trade and liquidity if the U.S. were to embrace Bitcoin as a sovereign asset. He acknowledges the limitations of Bitcoin in directly competing with the U.S. dollar domestically but posits that it could serve a valuable purpose internationally for settlements. Task emphasizes the early stage of development in the cryptocurrency space and predicts that as more powerful and utility-driven use cases emerge, cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin will become increasingly difficult to ignore in the global economic landscape.
In conclusion, Task encourages viewers to consider the evolving role of cryptocurrencies and their potential to revolutionize traditional financial systems. He stresses the importance of adaptation to new technologies and the utility they provide, hinting at a future where cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin could play a significant role in reshaping international trade and liquidity mechanisms.
