Strengthening Sovereignty, Taiwanese Parliament Members Urge Bitcoin to Become the National Reserve Asset
Taiwanese parliament member, Dr. Ko Ju-Chun, officially submitted a research report from the Bitcoin Policy Institute (BPI) to Prime Minister Cho Jung-tai and the Governor of Taiwan’s Central Bank (CBC), Yang Chin-long, during a formal interpellation session on Wednesday (4/29). This move was taken as a push for the government to start allocating part of the $602 billion in national foreign exchange reserves into Bitcoin as a strategic national asset.
The report emphasizes that Taiwan’s reliance on dollar-denominated assets, which reach 80%, creates significant risks amid geopolitical uncertainties. Bitcoin is seen as a solution due to its resistant nature to seizure and continued accessibility even in scenarios of naval blockade, unlike physical gold reserves which are difficult to mobilize in emergencies.
In response to the proposal, Dr. Ko also asked the Taiwan Central Bank to provide an in-depth report on stablecoins and digital asset reserves within the next month. Although it previously rejected the idea at the end of 2025, the Taiwan Central Bank is now beginning to show openness with plans to test digital asset sandbox using 210 seized BTC to study the mechanism of storing crypto assets at the national level.
