Here's the thing, if you love Bitcoin and want to hold it instead of $XRP, you do you. I'm not mad about it. I don't care at all!  I don't think it's going to work out well but by all means hold Bitcoin. 

Now, a strategic reserve for the United States of America is a completely different thing. The stakes are way higher. It's not just "I want my coin in there so the price goes up even though we don't know who Satoshi is or how BTC doesn't even qualify as an American coin."
