Swiss Bitcoin Enthusiasts Try Again to Convince the Country to Accept Bitcoin in Central Bank Reserves

Swiss Bitcoin enthusiasts are actively planning a nationwide vote to include Bitcoin in the country's national bank reserves. This action is led by the non-profit think tank 2B4CH, whose founder and chairman Yves Bennaïm said that this move would enhance Switzerland's sovereignty and neutrality in the global uncertain environment. Bennaïm revealed that they are currently busy completing organizational preparations and submitting necessary documents to the National Secretariat to initiate the voting process. However, the challenge is significant, as they need to obtain support from more than 100,000 Swiss citizens within the next 18 months to successfully hold a nationwide vote. It is reported that 2B4CH attempted a similar action last year but failed to reach the signature threshold. With a population of about 8.77 million, this means they need to win support from about 1.15% of the population.
