Hashpower as a Strategic Asset
Hashpower controlled by a nation increases its likelihood of winning the next Bitcoin block, earning rewards through transaction fees and block subsidies.
Winning a block also grants the miner authority to decide which transactions to include or exclude. This capability enables nations to prioritise their own transactions while censoring those of rivals.
In a world increasingly dependent on Bitcoin for trade, this capability is as critical as a navy or air force was in the past.
Securing hashpower within national borders is a strategic imperative and should be a top priority for nations today.
Without hashpower, nations risk being at the mercy of others—a precarious position, as history has often shown.
