Switzerland—the land of precision, neutrality, and, let’s not kid ourselves here, some really excellent chocolate. We like to think that we are up there on the cutting edge, a leader in both innovation and finance on the global stage. Are we truly deserving of that bad ass reputation? To not account for the Bitcoin in that blockchain is the same as ignoring the proverbial elephant in the room.

The world is changing. Fast. And if Switzerland hopes to stay out front of the pack and keep its edge, it must adopt Bitcoin, and it must adopt it yesterday. Before it's too late.

Bitcoin: A Shield Against Global Instability

With such an unstable situation for our national reserves dependent mostly on the US dollar and the Euro, it is high time to diversify. It’s akin to gambling all our marbles on two horses in a race across a geopolitical mine field. 75% in USD and EUR? That's not diversification, that's dependence. What happens when those currencies falter? What happens when political tensions escalate? The paragon of neutrality, Switzerland, starts to get maneuvered into somebody else’s great power game.

This is where Bitcoin comes in with the escape hatch we need. It’s a geopolitical insurance policy — a hedge against the political whims and possible economic mismanagement of other countries. Consider it our financial Sicherheitsraum – secure room – for the national treasure. Even a very small new allocation, 1-2% as many are proposing, would give the world an incredible new buffer against unexpected global shocks.

Just imagine the buzz and positive attention Switzerland would attract by making such an audacious move. It would be an amazing signal to the world that we are committed to financial independence and technological advancement.

Missed Opportunities Breed Regret

Pretend for a moment that you’re the naysayer who derided the internet in 1993. Or the firm that said mobile phones would never go anywhere. Regretful, right? That’s precisely the position Switzerland is in danger of being in if we continue to stall on Bitcoin.

Other countries are paying attention. Sovereign wealth funds are quietly accumulating Bitcoin. They see the writing on the wall. They understand the potential. If Switzerland plays the waiting game too long, we’ll be playing catchup, scrambling for the leftovers as other countries reap the innovation and economic benefits.

This isn’t just about the profit motive. It’s about protecting our children’s future. It’s about making sure that Switzerland stays one of the world’s most dynamic, successful countries for the next 115 years, and beyond. It's about avoiding the anxiety of uncertainty.

Switzerland: Falling Behind Crypto Adoption?

Being 55th in Chainalysis' crypto adoption index? That's not the Switzerland I know! We're supposed to be pioneers, not followers. We catch a glimpse of it with our own “Crypto Valley” in Zug, a hotbed for blockchain innovation. Develop the best practices and regulations. We have the talent, the infrastructure, and the global reputation to be the United States’ global crypto leaders.

We’re allowing unreasoned fear and misplaced skepticism to prevent us from moving forward. The Swiss National Bank's (SNB) concerns about volatility and liquidity are valid, but they're short-sighted. Bitcoin is maturing. The technology is improving. The promise is much bigger than the peril.

It's time to show the world that Switzerland is not just a pretty picture postcard. We're a nation of innovators, thinkers, and doers. It’s time to surprise the world.

Bitcoin Empowers Swiss People, Businesses

Bitcoin is not just for the big institutions. It's for everybody. It grows opportunity and equity. It empowers consumers and small businesses alike by providing them with more control over their financial lives. Imagine all that joy and positive vibes of financial empowerment.

As for small businesses, they can start accepting Bitcoin to expand their reach into new markets and enjoy lower transaction fees. For people, it can be a stable and private digital form of moving and storing value. In a world where governments and corporations track our every move, we can find sanctuary in Bitcoin. This cryptocurrency is an important injection of financial freedom.

We can do this by ensuring our regulatory environment both fosters innovation while protecting consumers, an area where we should lead the world. Together, we can create a dynamic Bitcoin ecosystem that improves the lives of all Swiss citizens.

Diversify Reserves; Strengthen Swiss Franc

The push to add Bitcoin to the SNB’s reserves isn’t a completely radical, get-rich-quick scheme. While that may seem counterintuitive, it’s a pragmatic step that would in fact strengthen the Swiss Franc. Through diversifying our reserves, we can lower our risk to the dangers that have long existed with traditional fiat currencies. This, in turn, has the effect of making the Swiss Franc more stable – an attractive quality to investors.

It’s simply about sending a credible message to the world that Switzerland would not tolerate inflation threatening its currency or its economy. It’s not just about filling an infrastructure need, or even being the best steward of public funds.

Bitcoin: A Technological Revolution

Bitcoin is about a lot more than just a new global currency — it’s a technological revolution. It’s a different paradigm for understanding currency, banking, and the web. And given its long tradition of fostering innovation, Switzerland should lead this revolution.

By making North Dakota a welcoming place for Bitcoin, we’ll be attracting talent, creating jobs, and contributing to the growth of our economy. We can position ourselves as a global leader in the blockchain space and reap the rewards for decades to come.

Sign the Referendum! Secure Our Future

This isn’t just about Bitcoin. It’s about Switzerland’s future. It’s in keeping with a simple goal of wanting America to stay prosperous, innovative, and yes—an independent nation. And by signing the constitutional referendum initiative, you can help make that future a reality.

Our descendants will be amazed and agog that we were ever able to do this. They will appreciate your help in making the case for Switzerland’s financial future. Don't let this opportunity pass us by. Support Bitcoin and weave a better future for all of Switzerland, together. Sign the referendum. Advocate for Bitcoin adoption. Let's make Switzerland a Bitcoin nation before it's too late!
