Behind the numbers, institutional and government activity is shaping Bitcoin as a global reserve asset. Blockchain analytics firm Arkham Intelligence found the UAE government has over 6,300 BTC, worth around $700 million, acquired directly through state-backed mining operations. <\/p>\n<p>The holdings are tied to Citadel Mining, a company linked to the Abu Dhabi royal family via the International Holding Company (IHC).<\/p>\n<figure><\/figure>\n<p>This confirms the UAE is ahead of El Salvador but behind Bhutan, sixth largest nation-state Bitcoin holder. Earlier it was speculated the UAE had 420,000 BTC, now that\u2019s been debunked.<\/p>\n<p>While far smaller than China, the US, or the UK, which together hold nearly 200,000 BTC, the UAE\u2019s direct mining strategy signals a deliberate push to accumulate Bitcoin as part of its sovereign reserves.<\/p>\n<h2><span id=\"h-fed-turmoil-raises-bitcoin-s-hedge-appeal\">Fed Turmoil Raises Bitcoin\u2019s Hedge Appeal<\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Bitcoin\u2019s narrative as an alternative reserve asset also gained traction amid political turmoil in the United States. President Donald Trump fired Federal Reserve Governor Lisa Cook, claiming misconduct related to mortgage documents. Cook denies the allegations and legal experts say Trump can\u2019t remove her before her term ends.<\/p>\n<figure>\n<div>\n<blockquote data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">The dollar weakened against every major peer after President Donald Trump moved to oust Federal Reserve Governor Lisa Cook from her post, denting sentiment toward the world\u2019s reserve currency <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/1xJCfDbMm9\" target=\"_blank\">https:\/\/t.co\/1xJCfDbMm9<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u2014 Bloomberg (@business) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/business\/status\/1960139696631054667?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" target=\"_blank\">August 26, 2025<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<\/div>\n<\/figure>\n<p>The controversy has raised concerns about the independence of the Federal Reserve, a key to global investor confidence. Analysts, including Alex Obchakevich of Obchakevich Research, warn that politicizing the Fed could weaken the dollar\u2019s role as the world\u2019s reserve currency.<\/p>\n<p>Crypto experts note that such instability may reinforce Bitcoin\u2019s role as a hedge against central bank intervention. While BTC isn\u2019t ready to replace the dollar, its recognition as a politically neutral asset is accelerating in moments of uncertainty.<\/p>\n<h2><span id=\"h-sequans-200m-bitcoin-treasury-plan\">Sequans\u2019 $200M Bitcoin Treasury Plan<\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Meanwhile, corporate adoption continues to expand. Sequans Communications (NYSE: SQNS), a Paris-based semiconductor firm, announced plans to raise up to $200 million via an equity sale to expand its Bitcoin reserves. <\/p>\n<p>The company already holds over 3,000 BTC ($331 million) and has set a bold target of 100,000 BTC by 2030.<\/p>\n<figure><\/figure>\n<p>CEO Dr. Georges Karam said the funds will be deployed \u201cjudiciously\u201d to strengthen the corporate treasury. While raising equity could dilute existing shareholders, analysts argue that linking corporate expansion to Bitcoin accumulation reflects a growing trend among public companies. <\/p>\n<p>Sequans\u2019 move mirrors strategies by MicroStrategy, which has turned BTC into its balance-sheet backbone.<\/p>\n<h2><span id=\"h-bitcoin-price-prediction-path-toward-130k\">Bitcoin Price Prediction: Path Toward $130K<\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Technically, Bitcoin is consolidating within a descending channel after peaking at $124,450 earlier this month. The 50-period SMA at $113,495 is capping rebounds, while short-term support sits at $112,000.<\/p>\n<p>Momentum is mixed, with the RSI at 46 signaling early recovery signs and the MACD flattening, hinting that bearish momentum may be fading.<\/p>\n<figure><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"531\" src=\"https:\/\/cimg.co\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/26235942\/image-135-1024x531.jpg\" alt  ><figcaption><strong><em>Bitcoin Price Chart \u2013 Source: Tradingview<\/em><\/strong><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>If Bitcoin breaks above $116,850, bulls could retest $120,900 and eventually the August high at $124,450. A failure to hold $110,000, however, risks pullbacks toward $108,695 and $105,150.<\/p>\n<p>In my opinion, the combination of nation-state accumulation, corporate treasuries and Fed chaos means Bitcoin is less likely to crash and more likely to go higher. If momentum plays out, BTC could get back to $130K and cement its status as the world\u2019s digital reserve asset.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"block-b8170b4b-7451-40ed-a6f8-662fa1966cc5\"><span id=\"h-presale-bitcoin-hyper-hyper-combines-bitcoin-security-with-solana-speed\">Presale Bitcoin Hyper ($HYPER) Combines Bitcoin Security With Solana Speed<\/span><\/h2>\n<p id=\"block-22843b66-399a-4789-81c5-b7a2df42c6c3\"><a href=\"https:\/\/cryptonews.com\/ext\/btchyper\/?transfer=1\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"sponsored nofollow\">Bitcoin Hyper ($HYPER)<\/a> is positioning itself as the first Bitcoin-native Layer 2 powered by the Solana Virtual Machine (SVM).
