BJP’s Pradeep Bhandari Champions Bold Move: India’s Bitcoin Reserve Plan Gains Momentum
India inches closer to a crypto-powered future as BJP leader Pradeep Bhandari pushes for a national Bitcoin reserve—because who needs gold when you've got digital scarcity?
The proposal—likely to trigger both cheers and eye-rolls in Delhi's corridors of power—could position India as the first major economy to hedge with decentralized assets. Traditional finance hawks are already clutching their rupee-pegged pearls.
No official treasury figures were disclosed (this is crypto, after all), but the mere suggestion sends a clear signal: even politicians now recognize Bitcoin's strategic value beyond speculative trading. Whether this becomes policy or just election-season posturing remains to be seen—we give it 50/50 odds, same as most altcoin projects.
