Get ready to nation-state Bitcoin adoption, because it’s coming

Get ready to nation-state Bitcoin adoption, because it’s coming

Imagine Bitcoin adoption by countries as a slow dance at first, awkward, hesitant, stepping on toes.

But according to Samson Mow, founder of Jan3, somewhere between crypto whisperer and prophet, that slow waltz is about to crank into a full-on salsa frenzy.

U.S. risks getting run over by other countries

Mow calls it the shift from gradually to the beginning phases of suddenly. Translation, buckle up, because governments are inching toward a Bitcoin blitz faster than you can say Satoshi Nakamoto.

Mow popped this hot take on the What Bitcoin Did podcast, comparing the gathering momentum in nation-state Bitcoin adoption to the kind of sudden, contagious panic you get when everyone realizes they’ve been missing the party.

He says it’s inevitable we’ll see a massive nation-state FOMO moment, where countries scramble to stockpile Bitcoin reserves like it’s the next gold rush.

The U.S. government is playing a slow game with Bitcoin, President Trump signed an executive order to create what’s called a Strategic Bitcoin Reserve. But the U.S. hasn’t actually started buying.

Despite sitting on a hefty stash of 198,012 Bitcoin, thanks, Bitbo data , the government’s still tiptoeing around actual acquisition.

Mow warns that the U.S. risks getting plain old run over by countries like Pakistan if it doesn’t speed up.

Broader trend among central banks and governments

Still, the U.S. isn’t sitting idly. It’s moving ahead with budget-neutral Bitcoin purchases and legislation like the Bitcoin Act, suggesting the reserve might materialize by the end of 2025, according to Galaxy Digital’s Alex Thorn.

The other part of the continent, Latin America is riding the Bitcoin wave with gusto, Mow says this region is where the real excitement is brewing, potentially sparking a broader trend in nation-state adoption that could change the game for central banks and government treasuries worldwide.

Fidelity chimed in too, predicting that a flood of governments, sovereign wealth funds, and central banks will start hoarding Bitcoin for their treasuries, sending crypto growth into overdrive.

The market is late to the party

But now, Bitcoin’s price hasn’t yet exploded into a massive run-up like many expected for 2025. Not yet.

Mow admits we should’ve seen a bull run by now, but the market’s been fashionably late to the party, maybe the big boom shifts into next year’s calendar.

Matt Hougan, Bitwise’s chief investment officer, also bets on 2026 as the year Bitcoin truly takes off.

If you’re wondering whether Bitcoin’s classic four-year cycle has waved goodbye thanks to ETFs and institutional appetite, well, that debate rages on in the background.

But Mow has already made his prediction, Bitcoin hitting $1 million is not just a dream anymore, it’s a given, possibly as soon as this year or next.
