Bhutan plans to use 10,000 bitcoins to build a 'crypto utopia'! You heard that right, this small country at the foot of the Himalayas is quietly doing something big.
The fifth largest holder of bitcoin in the world—Bhutan, which holds over 11,000 BTC, has just announced a game changer: the launch of the 'Gelephu Mindfulness City' plan, creating an economic special zone connecting South Asia and Southeast Asia using bitcoin reserves! This is not a fantasy; construction has already begun in 2024, personally pushed by King Wangchuk, determined to build a city of the future in 20 years.
Why the shock? The data speaks:
· Trillion reserves: 10,000 bitcoins currently valued at over 6 billion US dollars, with an astonishing per capita holding for the entire population.
· Dual strategy: on one hand, holding long-term to resist volatility, on the other, investing the returns into physical infrastructure.
· Precise breakthrough: directly addressing the pain point of youth outflow by opening a regulatory sandbox for crypto finance.
This 'Mindfulness City' located in southern Gelephu will attract fintech, green energy, and high-end tourism enterprises. Even better—it will also support Bhutan’s bitcoin mining industry! Using clean hydroelectric power for mining, and then using bitcoin to build the city, creating a closed-loop ecosystem.
The king stated: 'GMC is not a fantasy, it is an economic corridor connecting two major regions.' Developed in phases over 20 years, it aims for high-value jobs and sustainable growth. A small country is laying out the future with the most cutting-edge assets; this chess game is bold enough.
The comments section is exploding:
👉 Some say it's the 'textbook example of a small country overtaking on a curve',
👉 Others worry 'will bitcoin volatility cause the project to collapse?'
👉 What do you think, will this be a model for crypto cities or an idealistic experiment?
