U.S. Congress: Buy Bitcoin and hold for 20 years, don't sell! Netizens: Is this stacking coins or going to jail?

The U.S. Congress recently proposed a new strategic Bitcoin reserve bill, with a very simple core: lock it up for 20 years. Many crypto enthusiasts fell silent after reading it because they can't even hold for 20 days.

The funniest part of this bill is that, on one hand, it talks about "long-term strategic reserves," and on the other hand, it abandons the aggressive goal of "purchasing 1 million BTC." In plain language, it means: "We believe Bitcoin will be very valuable in the future, but buying too much now hurts."

Wall Street found it amusing. Because in the past, everyone was most afraid of the government crashing the market, but now the U.S. is starting to study "how to hold coins long-term." It's like a homeroom teacher who used to check phones every day suddenly starts trading stocks and even advises students on long-term value investing.

A 20-year lock-up period sounds exaggerated, but think about it carefully—much of human wealth actually comes from "holding onto it." The problem is that the average patience of crypto users is only slightly better than a goldfish. A 5% increase makes them want to show off, an 8% drop makes them want to quit, and after three days of volatility, they start questioning life.

However, the real signal this kind of bill releases is not "an imminent surge," but that global sovereign institutions are redefining Bitcoin. In the past, BTC was a toy for retail investors; now, it increasingly resembles a national-level asset allocation tool. When countries truly start a "coin hoarding race," the market may realize that the thing once mocked as an air coin has quietly sat down at the main financial table. #Gate广场披萨节
