9% odds on any size. Or, why the U.S. Bitcoin “strategic reserve” will never happen - at least not this decade. 👇 I’ve been holding this @Polymarket bet since March - back when 70% still believed Trump would create a U.S. Bitcoin reserve. Here’s why it’s a fantasy, not policy: 1️⃣ What “strategic reserve” actually means It’s not just a stash of assets. It’s a national-security instrument - oil, rare metals, medical stockpiles. Assets the U.S. can use in a crisis. For BTC to qualify, it must be: -usable in emergencies, -regulated and under state control, -aligned with national-security interests. Bitcoin fits none. It’s volatile, global, partially mined overseas, and impossible to control. Even gold isn’t in the strategic reserve - it sits in FX reserves instead. 2️⃣ Bureaucracy & politics The U.S. can’t even pass a budget - the last shutdown dragged for months and froze SEC and CFTC activity. Creating a BTC reserve would require: -a federal law defining BTC as a strategic asset, -approval across 50 states and multiple agencies, -a new acquisition and custody framework. That’s not a policy cycle - that’s a decade of political trench warfare. 3️⃣ National-security paradox China still controls ~14% of hashrate and dominates ASIC manufacturing. You can’t call an asset “strategic” when your geopolitical rival can influence its supply chain. Even Pentagon analysts call it “a dependency risk.” 4️⃣ Economic logic Trump thinks like a businessman: “Why buy BTC at $100k with taxpayer money when MicroStrategy and Grayscale bought at $60k?” The U.S. can’t just seize confiscated coins - it would have to buy on open markets, instantly pumping the price. You don’t want your “reserve” to front-run itself. 5️⃣ The optics vs. the reality Sure, “Trump creates a 1M BTC reserve” sounds great on Twitter. But the mechanics - procurement, custody, security - make it a bureaucratic nightmare. 🔹 Odds on @Polymarket: ~9% say “Yes.” 🔹 I’m still stacking “No” - been holding since March, when 70% believed it would happen. And now @Polymarket launched a new market for December 2026 - 80% odds on approval. That’s free money if you’ve got patience. 4× in a year sounds great - and you can probably exit in profit in 3-5 months once the hype fades.

A new campaign is now live on XOOB in collaboration with @MyNeighborAlice 5 days. 5,000 $USDC reward pool. Top 100 participants are rewarded based on ImpactShare performance. Publish content. Drive real attention. Earn your share. More details ↓

A new campaign is now live on XOOB in collaboration with @NomismaNetwork We are launching a 90-day campaign with an initial $100,000 USDC reward pool, designed to reward both influence and real user activity. As activity grows, the reward pool can expand up to $500,000, with additional allocations unlocked as key milestones are reached. The pool is split into: • $25,000 - ImpactShare Pool Distributed at the end of the campaign based on your overall contribution • $75,000 - CPA Pool Distributed instantly for verified user actions CPA is not a separate layer - it directly strengthens your ImpactShare results. XOOB Genesis NFT holders receive an additional ImpactShare boost, amplifying points generated, including those driven by CPA activity. User activity driven through your content is taken into account when calculating final results. Key mechanics: • CPA rewards are paid instantly after conditions are met • ImpactShare rewards are distributed after the campaign ends • CPA performance contributes to ImpactShare This creates a system where both attention and real on-chain activity are rewarded together.

The new campaign will be launched next week

💎We’re currently in an active build phase, laying the foundation for the next steps. In parallel, we’re in conversations with projects and running testnet testing of the platform, validating the mechanics and key metrics. ➡️January–February will be the phase where many things start coming together into a clearer picture, providing the community with more clarity around future stages and structure. 🌟We’re in the process of selecting the first projects for performance campaigns - the cases where the platform can demonstrate its full potential: real performance, measurable results, and strong numbers. ➡️We’re moving steadily, with high expectations for what we’ll be showing next. We understand the expectation for greater clarity - which is why the current focus is on quality and results, not speed. 🎄 Merry Christmas & Happy New Year Thanks to everyone who stays with us and follows the progress.
