‘No to CBDC, yes to Bitcoin’ — European MP calls for EU BTC reserve
The European Parliament’s Sarah Knafo said it’s time to stop “totalitarian temptations” by the European Central Bank and adopt Bitcoin.
European lawmaker Sarah Knafo called on the European Union to establish a strategic Bitcoin reserve while rejecting the proposed adoption of the “digital euro,” a central bank digital currency (CBDC) under development by the European Central Bank (ECB).
Knafo, a French magistrate and a member of the European Parliament since June, delivered a pro-Bitcoin (BTC) speech, calling on European lawmakers to launch a strategic BTC reserve.
“No to the digital euro, yes to a strategic Bitcoin reserve,” Knafo said in an X post, which included a video of her speech before the European Parliament.
