[Czech Central Bank: Direct Purchase of Digital Assets/Bitcoin Complies with the National Bank Act] The Czech National Bank (CNB) stated in a supplementary Q&A that the purpose of creating a pilot portfolio of digital assets is to gain practical experience in holding digital assets and to implement and test necessary processes. This is part of routine financial activities conducted outside of international reserves, which remain unchanged. The CNB's purchase of digital assets such as Bitcoin as a testing tool fully complies with the authorization framework of the Czech National Bank Act, particularly the 'other assets' clause in Article 32 and its broad interpretation of financial markets. This move is legal, compliant, and serves a clear policy purpose.
