TechFlow, April 26 — According to CoinDesk, Swiss National Bank (SNB) President Martin Schlegel on Friday clearly rejected calls to include bitcoin in official reserves during the central bank's annual general meeting. Schlegel stated that liquidity issues in the cryptocurrency market become particularly evident during crises, and bitcoin's high volatility makes it unsuitable for long-term value preservation, "in short, cryptocurrencies currently do not meet our high requirements for monetary reserves." This stance contrasts sharply with research from the Bitcoin Initiative, which simulated that if the Swiss central bank had allocated 1% of its portfolio to bitcoin since 2015, its return would have nearly doubled, with only a slight increase in overall volatility. Notably, the Swiss central bank already holds bitcoin indirectly through shares in companies such as Strategy, Tesla, MARA Holdings, and CleanSpark.
