Bitcoin Adoption: Countries in the Race for Strategic Reserves!
In a recent analysis, Samson Mow, founder of Jan3, emphasizes that the global acceptance of Bitcoin by nation states has reached a critical turning point. Mow says in the podcast “What Bitcoin Did” that countries that were previously skeptical about Bitcoin are now actively developing strategies to integrate the cryptocurrency. He describes this moment as “at the end of the gradual and the beginning of the sudden.” This could lead to massive FOMO (Fear of Missing Out) among governments as they try to build strategic Bitcoin reserves to avoid lagging behind other countries. These assessments come from crypto.news.
A particularly notable move was seen in the US, where President Trump signed an executive order establishing a Strategic Bitcoin Reserve. Although the US has not yet acquired Bitcoin, it is working on budget-neutral plans to acquire the cryptocurrency and is supporting relevant legislation through the Bitcoin Act.
Latin America outlook and market conditions
Samson Mow is optimistic about the prospects for Bitcoin adoption in Latin America, which he sees as one of the most promising regions. This assessment is supported by the interest of several Latin American countries in integrating cryptocurrencies. Mow sees this region as a potential catalyst for global Bitcoin adoption.
Additionally, Mow expresses surprise at Bitcoin's price performance in 2025. He notes that the hoped-for bull runs have not yet materialized and believes that the current market cycle has been delayed. Several analysts share this view and have noted unusual cycle characteristics in recent months. Mow expects this cycle could continue into next year, rather than following previous historical timing patterns.
Technical analysis and price forecasts
Technical analysts have also focused on current market conditions that could influence Bitcoin's short-term price movement. Analyst Ted Pillows points to large liquidity clusters at $108,000 and $114,000 and suggests that there could be potential downward liquidity swings ahead of upside moves.
Additionally, Bitcoin funding rates remain positive, which some traders see as a sign of potential short-term selling pressure. These developments, coupled with optimistic expectations at the government level, could represent an exciting period for Bitcoin and its future adoption.
