Bitcoin Reserve for Poland
The Bitcoin wave is taking over world politics; now Polish presidential candidate Slawomir Mentzen has stated that if elected, he will establish a strategic Bitcoin reserve.
An important point is that Mentzen mainly posts in Polish, but after Cryptoverse started talking about him, he made another announcement in English; this means he was trying to tell the Cryptoverse.
A popularity to grow
Mentzen is not a popular candidate; recent surveys show that he is supported by barely 12% of voters. However, Mentzen's popularity is expected to grow with the revelation of the Bitcoin reserve, and financial backing from the crypto industry is not ruled out. This might force other political leaders to run with Bitcoin.
Trump & Bukele Effect
We may refer to the growth of Bitcoin promises in politics as the Trump Effect, because his victory in the United States, as well as the preparation of the Bitcoin reserve, have sparked crypto-based political concerns around the globe. Of fact, the Trump Effect began with El Salvador's Bukele Effect.
