Interestingly, Taiwan already holds over 200 Bitcoin — not by strategy, but through confiscations tied to criminal cases. While small compared to global reserves, it highlights a growing reality: governments are already interacting with crypto, whether intentionally or not.

The debate now is about what comes next. As adoption grows and concerns like volatility and custody improve, Bitcoin could evolve from a seized asset into a strategic one. The real question isn’t whether countries will adopt it — but when they decide it’s necessary.
