Ukraine’s Parliament Moves to Create National Crypto Reserve—Because Who Needs Gold Anymore?
Lawmakers in Kyiv just fired the starting gun on digital asset sovereignty—or at least, that’s the pitch. The Verkhovna Rada dropped a bill proposing a state-backed crypto reserve, swapping vaults of bullion for cold wallets. Because when your currency gets hammered by war and inflation, why not YOLO into decentralized finance?
Details? Scarce. But the subtext screams ‘hedge against chaos.’ While traditionalists clutch pearls over volatility, Ukraine’s playbook now reads: if you can’t beat the speculators, join them—with government oversight, naturally.
Cynical take? Another bureaucracy dipping toes in crypto waters while Wall Street still can’t decide if Bitcoin’s a ‘risk-on asset’ or a ‘macro hedge.’ Spoiler: it’s both—until the next crash.
