Senator Loomis to introduce bill next Monday requiring the U.S. Treasury to buy 1 million Bitcoins
Odaily Planet Daily News: Wyoming Senator Cynthia Loomis will introduce a bill next week requiring the U.S. Treasury to purchase 1 million bitcoins over five years, which is about $68 billion at the current price. She said in an interview with The Block that the move is to counter the impact of the depreciation of the U.S. dollar.
“Bitcoin is a great store of value. Over the last four years or so, it’s been growing at an average annual rate of about 55%. During that same period, the dollar has depreciated and we’ve seen an increase in inflation,” said Senator Loomis.
Loomis has long been a supporter of Bitcoin, having reportedly purchased her first Bitcoin in 2013, and has been at the forefront of pushing for cryptocurrency legislation. (The block)

Original author: @ Web3 Mario (https://x.com/web3_mario) Following the previous article about TON technology introduction, I have studied TON official development documents in depth recently. I feel that there are still some barriers to learning. The current document content seems more like an internal development document, which is not very friendly to new developers.
