US Senator: Currently not holding crypto assets, but would definitely buy Bitcoin if I had spare cash On February 19, US Senator Bernie Moreno stated in an interview with CNBC that despite Bitcoin's current volatility, he emphasized that investments should focus on long-term cycles. While he personally does not hold Bitcoin to avoid scrutiny, he clearly said, 'If I had spare cash to invest in the market today, I would buy Bitcoin instead of gold.' When discussing stablecoins, he refuted the idea that they threaten the US dollar, arguing instead that they could create massive demand for US Treasury bonds and reduce debt costs by hundreds of billions of dollars annually. He advocated for aligning the speed of capital flow with information flow, enabling real-time wage settlements, and warned that if the US doesn't seize this opportunity, its innovation edge will be lost to other regions.
