Vice President J.D. Vance Fires Up Bitcoin Conference: "Get Political or Get Ignored!"

Holy smokes, folks! Vice President J.D. Vance just dropped a bombshell at the Bitcoin 2025 conference in Vegas, telling the crypto crowd to keep their political game strong or risk getting the cold shoulder. No joke!

With the crowd hanging on his every word, Vance made it crystal clear that if you're not at the political table, you're on the menu. "Unless you guys get involved in politics, politics is going to ignore this industry," he thundered. And let me tell you, he's not messing around. He's saying that even the hottest tech like Bitcoin won't be safe from the policy wonks if we don't step up.

Vance didn't hold back, folks. He gave a shoutout to the crypto community's growing political muscle, saying it's already steering the national ship. But he's not satisfied with just a pat on the back. "Carry it forward to 2026 and beyond," he challenged the fired-up crowd.

Bitcoin Reserve: Uncle Sam's Big Bet on Crypto

But wait, there's more! Vance spilled the beans on how Bitcoin is about to become a major player in U.S. policy. He's talking about a government-backed Bitcoin Reserve, launched under President Donald Trump's watch. Can you believe it?

"Bitcoin is owned by about 50 million Americans," Vance declared, and you could feel the energy in the room. "We want to start to put in motion the strategic importance of Bitcoin for the United States government."

And get this – he's not just talking about some wishy-washy policy. He's looking at China's anti-Bitcoin stance and saying, "If the Communist Republic of China is leaning away from Bitcoin, then maybe the United States ought to be leaning into Bitcoin." Boom! That's a bold move, folks.
