TechFlow news — On January 7, according to Cointelegraph, Czech National Bank Governor Aleš Michl said in a recent interview with CNN Prima News that the bank is considering including Bitcoin in its foreign exchange reserve diversification strategy. If implemented, the Czech central bank would become the first European central bank to purchase Bitcoin.
Michl mentioned in the interview that he is contemplating acquiring a "small amount of Bitcoin" as part of reserve diversification. While this would not be a significant investment, its symbolic importance is substantial. The bank's advisor, Janis Aliapoulos, confirmed that although there are currently no plans to buy Bitcoin, discussions on the matter could take place in the future. Any decision to purchase Bitcoin would require approval from the bank’s seven-member board of directors.
