#USSeeksStrategicBitcoinReserve Strengthening Sovereignty, Taiwanese Parliament Members Urge Bitcoin to Become the National Reserve Asset Taiwanese parliament member, Dr. Ko Ju-Chun, officially submitted a research report from the Bitcoin Policy Institute (BPI) to Prime Minister Cho Jung-tai and Taiwan’s Central Bank Governor (CBC), Yang Chin-long, during a formal interpellation session on Wednesday (4/29). This move was taken as a push for the government to start allocating a portion of the $602 billion in national foreign exchange reserves into Bitcoin as a strategic national asset. The report emphasizes that Taiwan’s reliance on dollar-denominated assets, which reach 80%, creates significant risks amid geopolitical uncertainties. Bitcoin is considered a solution due to its resistant nature to seizure and continued accessibility even in scenarios of maritime blockade, unlike physical gold reserves which are difficult to mobilize in emergencies. In response to the proposal, Dr. Ko also asked Taiwan’s Central Bank to provide an in-depth report on stablecoins and digital asset reserves within the next month. Although the bank previously rejected this idea at the end of 2025, Taiwan’s Central Bank is now beginning to show openness with plans to test digital asset sandbox using 210 seized BTC to study the mechanism of storing crypto assets at the national level.
