Cryptocurrency Live News & Updates : Bitcoin Joins Reserve Discussions, Gold Prevails
27 Jul 2025 | 01:15:12 AM IST BlackRock's report highlights a shift towards de-dollarization, with gold maintaining dominance while Bitcoin enters sovereign reserve discussions amid rising geopolitical tensions and inflation. Recent developments in the cryptocurrency landscape reveal a significant shift in reserve strategies among central banks. BlackRock's report indicates that while gold remains the primary asset for hedging against economic instability, Bitcoin is increasingly being considered in reserve discussions. Central banks have ramped up gold purchases, with over 1,000 metric tons acquired in 2024 alone, reflecting a growing trend of de-dollarization. Meanwhile, Bitcoin's visibility in policy circles is rising, as evidenced by the Czech National Bank's internal review on potentially including Bitcoin in its reserves. On the altcoin front, investors are eyeing new opportunities, particularly with projects like PEPETO, which is gaining traction due to its unique features and community support. Unlike traditional memecoins, PEPETO offers real utility with zero-fee trading and cross-chain capabilities, making it a contender for significant gains in the upcoming altcoin season. As central banks navigate their reserve strategies, the interplay between established assets like gold and emerging digital currencies like Bitcoin and promising altcoins will shape the future of global finance.
