Coinbase, CEO of Gemini throws support behind Bitcoin-only US Crypto Reserve

Trump said Crypto strategic reserve Solana will be included (Sol), Cardano (Ada) and XRP (XRP) In addition to bitcoin (Btc) and ether (Eth).

Winklevoss said while he was nothing against many of these coins, he did not believe they were appropriate to become a US reserve.

“Many of these possessions are listed for trade in Gemini and meet our strict list policy criteria, but with respect to a strategic reserve it is another standard. A owner needs to be a difficult money that is a proven value store like gold.”

Coinbase’s Brian Armstrong joins, Says“Bitcoin is just probably the best choice,” pointing out that this is the simplest cryptocurrency and a clear alternative to gold.
