To ask His Majesty's Government, further to the Written Answer by Lord Livermore on 19 December 2024 (HL3296), what advice they have sought on establishing a strategic Bitcoin reserve for the United Kingdom; and whether they have had discussions with the government of the United States of America about any potential benefits this might offer the United Kingdom.
- Answer
-
As set out in my previous response, HM Treasury currently has no plans to adopt a strategic bitcoin reserve.
The UK and US have a close and historic relationship and hold regular engagement. We will not comment on hypothetical policy positions.
