After Donald Trump secured the U.S. presidency using the pro-Bitcoin agenda, Polish presidential candidate Sławomir Mentzen seems to follow suit by establishing a strategic Bitcoin reserve. In a November 17 X post, Mentzen reaffirmed his Bitcoin strategy with a concise, translated response: ‘obviously.’
Mentzen was addressing an appeal from crypto advocate Lech Wilczyński, who argued for Poland to adopt a Bitcoin reserve. Wilczyński slammed going after trying to implement ineffective cryptocurrency regulations, and instead posed a direct question: would Mentzen support a Bitcoin reserve if he became president? Mentzen’s reaffirmation, in a way, reinforces his stance on adopting a forward-thinking cryptocurrency policy.
Donald Trump’s Bitcoin Reserve Vision
Donald Trump made headlines during his campaign when he endorsed Bitcoin, becoming the first U.S. presidential candidate to accept Bitcoin donations. At the Bitcoin Conference in Nashville, he had also outlined plans on establishing a national Bitcoin reserve for the US. Trump emphasized the role a Bitcoin reserve would play as a hedge against inflation, currency devaluation, and economic instability. His vision aimed to position the U.S. as a Bitcoin superpower, capitalizing on the cryptocurrency’s decentralized nature and scarcity.
This strategy aligns with a broader trend of governments viewing Bitcoin reserves as valuable assets. Recently, Dennis Porter, founder of Satoshi Action Education, introduced a Bitcoin reserve model, describing it as an inflation hedge, highlighting its growing global adoption over the past 16 years. Notably, countries such as the United States have already incorporated Bitcoin into their treasury holdings.
Could Poland Adopt a Bitcoin Reserve?
Poland’s adoption of a Bitcoin reserve could safeguard its economy against inflation and financial instability. Diversifying its assets with Bitcoin would reduce risks tied to traditional currencies and highlight Poland’s readiness to embrace innovative technologies. Such a move could position Poland as a leader in digital finance, signaling its intent to stay ahead in a rapidly changing global financial landscape.

As Bitcoin gains traction worldwide, more nations have started to find ways to use its potential as a strategic reserve asset. Poland’s newfound enthusiasm to follow suit would help further crypto adoption along Europe, and in that way help leverage Bitcoin’s advantage over fiat currencies.
