While Bitcoin was designed to be apolitical, it is now deeply entwined with political institutions. On 25 October 2025, Bo Hines, who is the former head of US President Donald Trump\u2019s Council of Advisers on Digital Assets, acknowledged that previously <\/span>governments viewed cryptocurrency and Bitcoin as almost a criminal asset that was used for nefarious activity.<\/p>\n

\u201cThey\u2019ve realized that that\u2019s not the case. People want freedom, and they want the freedom to move money how they please. And so the demand that people have created for this commodity has changed the course of history, and governments are forced to address it,\u201d said Hines, while talking at the PlanB Forum in Lugano, Switzerland.<\/p>\n

\n

I think that you\u2019re going to start seeing Bitcoiners in the US become more engaged at a local level as well. And this, honestly, is a result of the fact that the financial system has failed so many people for so long. <\/strong><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Hines, who is now the Strategic Advisor for Digital Assets and US Strategy at Tether, said, \u201cSo in the US, obviously, we\u2019ve created the Strategic Bitcoin Reserve in which the Treasury is responsible for being a custodian over. But that\u2019s a direct result of the power and persistence that the people created, and I think that\u2019s an incredible thing to recognize. And I think that it will change the really change the course of history forever.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe say in the US now that Bitcoin is digital gold\u201d<\/h2>\n

\u201cWe say in the US now that bitcoin is digital gold,\u201d Hines added. \u201cIt is a commodity that should be recognized. I think that\u2019s something that will happen across the rest of the globe.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n

Bitcoin is the grandfather for us in a sense of welcoming in a new age that completely revolutionizes the financial system.<\/b><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

\u201cDavid likes to describe it as having the immaculate conception,\u201d said Hines, talking about the Crypto Czar David Sacks. \u201cObviously, we understand it\u2019s finite. We understand that governments have a strong desire to obtain it and hold on to it. And so I think as we look at this long term, we have to recognize that, one, this is a commodity that\u2019s here to stay and probably, in my opinion, becomes the most valuable asset in the world.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cMost Importantly, Bo Is A Bitcoiner,\u201d Said Tether CEO Paolo Ardoino<\/h2>\n

\u201cBut from a broader perspective, think about how many things from this ecosystem will be applied to the financial system more generally,\u201d said Hines. <\/span><\/p>\n

\n

You think about Tether. You think about the way that stablecoins work now. We\u2019re going to have 24-7 markets. We\u2019re going to have tokenized public securities.<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

\u201cWe\u2019re going to have a brave new world in the financial system that creates really connectivity that we\u2019ve never seen before across the entire globe. And that is a direct result of Bitcoin in this ecosystem. And so the US government fully recognizes that. And I\u2019m proud to say I worked for an administration that embraced it,\u201d said Hines.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Talking about Ardoino and Tether, Hines said, \u201cFor a long time, they told Paolo that he was servicing a niche. Now, the niche happens to be one third of the global population \u2013 folks that are underbanked, debanked, underserved. Bitcoin is truly the representative of the entire digital assets ecosystem, obviously. As being the grandfather. But again, I would just say that in terms of financial freedom \u2013 it\u2019s worth protecting and worth fighting for and also worth educating. So I\u2019d encourage Bitcoiners to educate folks around you about what it means to you.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n
