MARA’s Fred Thiel Says U.S. Should Start Mining Bitcoin to Fill Strategic Reserve

Fred Thiel just dropped a bombshell—Washington should fire up the rigs and start stacking sats. The Marathon Digital chief argues Bitcoin mining could fortify America’s financial reserves better than dusty old gold bars.

Strategic crypto stockpiling: Thiel’s playbook mirrors Cold War-era resource stockpiling—but with a blockchain twist. Who needs Fort Knox when you’ve got ASICs and cheap energy?

The kicker? This comes as Treasury secretaries still debate whether crypto is ’a passing fad.’ Meanwhile, China’s been quietly mining at scale since 2014. Classic Washington—late to the party but first in line for the microphone.
