Bitcoin’s dominance continues to expand, and according to Binance founder Changpeng Zhao (CZ), there is “no escape” from it. His statement came in response to growing momentum behind the US Strategic Bitcoin Reserve initiative, with Montana becoming the latest state to push for a Bitcoin reserve bill.
Bitcoin Reserve Gaining Political Support
The US Strategic Bitcoin Reserve proposal is picking up speed, with multiple states passing legislation to establish localized Bitcoin reserves. Montana’s House Bill No. 420 was just approved by committee, moving one step closer to becoming law.
Montana is now the fourth state to advance Bitcoin reserve legislation, following:
✅ Utah
✅ Oklahoma
✅ Arizona
Crypto advocacy group Satoshi Action Fund highlighted Montana’s progress, emphasizing that more states are beginning to recognize Bitcoin’s long-term value as a strategic financial asset.
CZ: Bitcoin is Unavoidable
As Montana’s Bitcoin reserve bill gained traction, CZ took to social media to share his thoughts. He implied that Bitcoin’s widespread adoption is no longer a question of “if” but “when.”
“You can buy Bitcoin after the US government is done buying, or before,” CZ wrote, suggesting that early adopters stand to benefit the most.
His remarks resonated with crypto traders, one of whom echoed his sentiment:
“Front-run the biggest buyer in history, or wait until there’s nothing left. The choice isn’t if—it’s when.”
CZ later doubled down on his statement, comparing Bitcoin adoption to the inevitability of using the internet or money. In other words, Bitcoin is becoming an essential asset, whether people accept it now or later.
Crypto Donations & the LIBRA Token Collapse
Beyond the discussion on Bitcoin reserves, CZ also highlighted the positive impact of crypto donations. He shared a personal story about a donation he had made to victims of the LIBRA token collapse—a project briefly promoted by Argentine President Javier Milei before its value crashed.
CZ revealed that he had donated 150 BNB (worth $100,000) to affected investors, including a university student. In a surprising turn of events, the student returned the donation—plus an additional $50,000—after profiting from BNB’s growth.
This story, according to CZ, underscores the power of crypto-driven generosity and community support in times of crisis.
Final Thoughts
With Bitcoin reserves becoming a reality in multiple US states, and influential figures like CZ reinforcing its inevitability, it’s clear that crypto adoption is entering a new phase. Whether governments or individuals adopt it first, Bitcoin’s grip on the financial system is tightening.
