What about countries that seized bitcoins from people, should we also count them as countries that owns bitcoins? Just asking this because I know of a few countries that are hoarding bitcoins they seized in one or the other. Although the case of El Salvador may be something different because their government actually invested money in bitcoin, and not by confiscating it. Other countries that possibly might be holding bitcoin by now are United States, North Korea, Bulgaria, and Sweden. These countries were once in possession of bitcoin, but I can’t tell if they are still holding these coins or not.
Now this list is going very long even too many countries officially not accepting and in few countries having ban but their officials holding some good number of bitcoins because they understand all about this and saving their money with this way but still bringing some policies which are not good for their peoples as they also want to use bitcoin.
Recently we have some good views about this from developing countries, hopefully they will also jump into this with some better and positive policies they need to have this in reserve as well because this is also can work for them as they are having with Gold.
