Hedging sanctions risk: Cryptocurrency in central bank reserves

The thesis of the article is that central banks might start putting more of their reserves into assets like gold and Bitcoin.
Gold is already a common choice, and gold price appreciation is a symptom of that, but Bitcoin is gaining interest because it's decentralised, making it much harder for other governments to freeze. The study found that countries facing high risks of sanctions might keep as much as 10-25% of their reserves in Bitcoin as a form of "insurance".
CB's using Bitcoin to save themselves from other CB's, how ironic.
