While the number of Bitcoin and crypto money users continues to increase in many countries, legal regulations regarding BTC and crypto money are also being carried out.
Another new step was taken in Switzerland, one of the countries talked about with BTC moves. Speaking to local news outlet Neue Zürcher Zeitung (NZZ), Yves Bennaïm, founder of 2B4CH, a non-profit organization, said Bitcoin should be added to the central bank's reserves.
Bennaïm stated that adding Bitcoin to the central bank's reserves would help preserve Switzerland's sovereignty and neutrality in an increasingly uncertain world.
At this point, Swiss Bitcoin maximalists, led by 2B4CH founder Yves Bennaïm, took action to change the country's constitution and add Bitcoin to the Swiss National Bank reserves.
Yves Bennaïm stated that the Bitcoin move, which started under the leadership of 2B4CH, required the signatures of more than 100,000 Swiss citizens and said:
“Our aim is to add Bitcoin as a reserve currency to Article 99-3 of the Swiss Federal Constitution. Because it is important to take the necessary steps to protect our sovereignty and neutrality.
The Swiss National Bank creates foreign exchange reserves in excess of its income; Some of these reserves are held as gold. “In the future it will be called gold and Bitcoin.”
Luzius Meisser, president of the Bitcoin-focused trading platform Bitcoin Suisse, which helped Yves Bennaïm in this signature initiative, said: “By including Bitcoin in its reserves, Switzerland will declare its independence from the European Central Bank. Such a step will strengthen our neutrality.” said.
