Bitcoin could become the world’s reserve currency if more people lose trust in the government, said Senator Rand Paul, who accepted BTC donations in its 2016 campaign.
The survey found that overall trust in the federal government to handle international problems sits at a record-low 39%, whereas confidence in the judicial branch is at 54%, down 13 points since 2020.
Even though the Republican Senator was not specific about which cryptocurrency he was referring to in the interview, he has not publicly endorsed any cryptocurrency other than BTC, indicating he was likely referring to bitcoin itself.
