- Swedish lawmakers propose Bitcoin reserve
- It is Inspired by U.S. strategic BTC holdings
- The initiative is from different parties, Center Party and Christian Democrats
- It is not about budget funds, but confiscated BTCs
Swedish Lawmakers propose Bitcoin Reserve inspired by U.S. strategic BTC holdings, also pointing out that budget funds will not be needed, because it is about confiscated BTCs.
It is noteworthy that this initiative comes from representatives of different parties, namely deputies Dennis Dioukarev, Christian Democrats, and Rickard Nordin, Center Party.
More About the Bitcoin Reserve Initiative in Sweden
It seems like things are exaggerated amidst Donald Trump’s trade war, and reciprocal tariffs not only from China but also Europe.
Increasingly dependent on the US dollar, Europe has already announced the active development and implementation of the digital EUR, which is still considered as CBDC and meets a natural and I would even say fair resistance.
Here, we see that the next voices are sounding in the direction of Bitcoin as the most decentralized and independent asset, and this vision crosses the boundaries of different parties. In particular, Dennis Dioukarev sent a letter to Finance Minister Elisabeth Svantesson where he outlined and argued his initiative, which he highlighted in his post at X.

As you can see, this is already a classic proposal with standard arguments that paved the way for Bitcoin reserves in the United States. The proposal here is not to invent a new one but to follow suit and replicate the US approach to the main crypto asset of today, Bitcoin.
Conclusion
Let’s see how favorably Finance Minister Elisabeth Svantesson views this, whether it will seem sufficient. Or is it necessary for economic tensions to escalate further, forcing them to actively consider alternatives? Stay tuned for updates, and be adaptive in the rapidly evolving technology, blockchain, and crypto landscape.
