<p>With 61,000 BTC, the United Kingdom is the third-largest Bitcoin holder, behind the United States (207,189 BTC) and China (194,000 BTC). Recently, Devere Group CEO Nigel Green suggested the UK government should follow Donald Trump’s idea of creating a <a href="https://coinpedia.org/news/breaking-the-pennsylvania-introduces-landmark-legislation-to-establish-bitcoin-reserve/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Bitcoin national reserve. </a></p>   
<p>Could this strategy reshape the UK’s economy? Let’s take a closer look at Green’s argument.</p>

<p>Recently, US President-elect Donald Trump proposed his plan to <a href="https://coinpedia.org/news/trumps-bitcoin-reserve-vision-hope-or-hype/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">create a Bitcoin reserve in the United States</a>. The plan has been received well by most. Many experts think that Trump’s move would help the US economy overcome significant challenges, including inflation and public debt.&nbsp;</p>   
<p>Financial expert Nigel Green also praised the United States’s new Bitcoin reserve strategy. Highlighting the prime benefits of the move, he advised the United Kingdom to adopt a similar strategy to boost the economy.</p>

<p>The global economy is often unstable, and the UK faces its own set of challenges, including inflation and growing public debt. Currently, the UK’s national debt stands at 2.8 trillion euros—about the same as the total value of goods and services produced in the UK in a year.</p>   
<p>In the past year, the UK government borrowed 125.1 billion euros, and last month, borrowing reached 17.4 billion euros—the second-highest borrowing in October since 1993. Inflation also rose sharply from 1.7% to 2.3% in October.</p>

<p>Green believes that adopting a Bitcoin reserve could help the UK solve some of its key economic problems. Bitcoin could protect against inflation, currency devaluation, and market volatility. It could also attract entrepreneurs and <a href="https://coinpedia.org/beginners-guide/what-is-blockchain/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">blockchain innovators</a>, which could drive economic growth.</p>   [post_titles_links postid="71144"]

<h2 class="wp-block-heading" id="h-will-the-uk-fall-behind">Will the UK Fall Behind? </h2>   
<p>Green warned that the UK could fall behind other countries in the race for financial and technological leadership. Many nations are already developing their own cryptocurrency strategies, and the UK needs to act quickly to stay competitive.</p>   
<p>With Keir Starmer now Prime Minister, the UK is entering a new political phase. As the leader of the Labour Party, Starmer may be more open to bold economic policies, like establishing a Bitcoin reserve. </p>   
<p>This could be the perfect time for the UK to adopt a fresh, innovative strategy to boost its economy.</p>
