币界网报道:India's ruling Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) has proposed exploring Bitcoin as a reserve asset to enhance economic resilience, according to a policy paper from its think tank. The document suggests launching a pilot program to test holding Bitcoin in India's foreign exchange reserves, citing its potential as a hedge against inflation and dollar volatility. The proposal comes amid growing institutional adoption of cryptocurrency globally, though it stops short of recommending full-scale adoption. The BJP's economic cell emphasized the need for cautious experimentation with digital assets while maintaining strict regulatory oversight. This marks a notable shift in India's stance toward cryptocurrencies, which faced potential bans in previous years. The pilot would study Bitcoin's price stability and correlation with traditional assets before any larger implementation. The move aligns with India's broader digital transformation efforts, including its central bank digital currency (CBDC) initiatives.
