Poland’s presidential elections will be held in May 2025. 
A <a href="https://www.forbes.pl/inwestowanie/slawomir-mentzen-chwali-sie-milionami-w-bitcoinach-a-czym-jest-kryptorozpacz/xs66s0z" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">Forbes</a> article from 2023 noted that Mentzen had around 5 million PLN (over $1 million) in BTC. 
He would reportedly use the draft bill created by the Satoshi Act Fund which is already on its way to pass in Pennsylvania. 
Last week, Porter<a href="https://x.com/Dennis_Porter_/status/1857175798785904740" rel="nofollow" target="_blank"> shared</a> that lawmakers are claiming massive support in the US for a Strategic BTC Reserve legislation. 
Yesterday, he <a href="https://x.com/Dennis_Porter_/status/1858257914185879855" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">announced</a> that the Satoshi Act Fund has open-sourced the model policy and since then, multiple lawmakers and a presidential candidate endorsed the policy and vowed to pass it into law. 
<h2 id="strategic-bitcoin-reserve-model-policy-is-open-sourced">Strategic Bitcoin Reserve Model Policy is Open-Sourced</h2> 
According to the official act, Section 1’s legislative findings mention that inflation eroded the purchasing power of the assets held in state funds managed by the state treasurer and state retirement funds. This erosion is diminishing the value of the state’s reserves, affecting the following: 
<ul> 
 <li>Financial stability</li> 
 <li>Economic security</li> 
 <li>Taxpayers</li> 
 <li>Residents</li> 
</ul> 
The official notes mention that the state doesn’t have direct control over the national money supply or the policies influencing inflation, but it does have the responsibility to safeguard the financial resources against the impact of inflation and economic uncertainty. 
Also, the notes describe how Bitcoin has reached a market cap of over $1 trillion in its 16-year history and is now becoming widely accepted as an international medium of exchange worldwide. 
More countries including the US are already holding BTC in their Treasury Dept. and the digital asset is now seen as a hedge against inflation by sovereign nations and investment advisors as well.

Today, the coin recorded a significant surge in price from $88,000 levels earlier. 
Founder and CEO of Crypto Quant, Ki Young Ju, <a href="https://x.com/ki_young_ju/status/1858383043700064299" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">shared</a> an optimistic post earlier today, revealing that retail investors are coming to the market, with BTC transaction volume under $100,000 hitting a 3-year high. 
Institutional interest in BTC also accelerated following the US elections, supporting the digital asset’s price rally. From November 6 to November 13, when BTC hit its ATH, the US BTC ETFs recorded inflows of $4.7 billion. 
Now, the cumulative flows in the crypto products are at $27.46 billion since their January inception, <a href="https://sosovalue.com/assets/etf/us-btc-spot" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">SoSoValue</a> data shows. 
Bitcoin is supported by multiple favorable factors, and, considering the <a href="https://crypto.ro/en/news/top-potential-upcoming-crypto-changes-in-2025/">upcoming changes</a> in crypto policies, the stage is set for the digital asset to<a href="https://crypto.ro/en/sponsored/bitcoin-towards-100000-how-the-crypto-market-is-transforming-under-the-influence-of-new-policies/"> reach $100,000</a> even sooner than 2025, according to the most optimistic predictions.
