I don't have a strong opinion about this. I was just being needlessly contrarian.
I do think there are real risks to letting them start investing in speculative assets. That's not about Bitcoin, but there's a slippery slope in that direction.
I think that's a fair argument. How would you feel if they just established a reserve based on the Bitcoin they already have?

I would rather they sold it. I want people to have Bitcoin and the State to become insolvent.
From a public finance standpoint, it probably does make sense for them to add Bitcoin to the other monetary assets that they hold as reserves.

I would rather they sold it too. As bell_curve mentioned and I responded in agreement they will probably end up selling it in a bear market (or maybe in a bull) anyways, but doesn't mean it wouldn't be a good experiment.
