Pakinomist – In a recent tweet, cryptocurrency investor, trader and entrepreneur Willy Woo shared his take on the prospects of creating the US National Reserve and why the new US President did not sign any orders on it on his first day in the White House House.
Woo has warned that building a strategic Bitcoin Reserve for the US is not easy in terms of approval and execution. Therefore, it can take up to two years to start.
6-24 months needed to start buying Bitcoin
Woo explained how he sees the US National Bitcoin Reserve happening: “The Bitcoin Strategic Reserve needs buy-in from Congress and the House.” He pointed out that issuing an executive order on the day of the inauguration would be “the direct way to do this.”
If approved, Willy Woo continued, then, he stated, nothing of that scale would happen immediately. The retailer believes that it would take from six to twenty-four months for the US government to “execute on BTC stacking.” Still, Woo reckons markets would start to react earlier and “start a process of speculative front-running.” The original plan said the US would buy 200,000 BTC every 12 months for the next five years.
