McGregor will bring a wave of BTC to Europe Treasury
Conor McGregor, one of the world's most famous fighters, no longer wants to be limited to just the UFC ring. He has announced to contest for the post of President of Ireland in 2025. But his political thinking is completely different from traditional leaders. McGregor believes that Ireland has to be made economically modern and independent and for this he needs Bitcoin. His vision is to make Ireland a country where digital currency is a part of the government strategy and with this thinking he has come up with a new proposal Irish Bitcoin Reserve, under which he has promised to add Bitcoin to the European Treasury.
Advocating Bitcoin Reserve in Europe Treasury for Ireland
McGregor had earlier written in a tweet on 9 May 2025:
“Crypto in its origin was founded to give power back to the people. An Irish Bitcoin strategic reserve will give power to the people’s money.”
Under this idea, he wants to create a Bitcoin Reserve for Ireland, which will increase the country’s Economic Sovereignty. He believes that through digital currency, people can get more control over their money, which will reduce the grip of traditional banks and bureaucracy.
His objective is clear to give economic freedom to the common man and move the country forward on the path of financial innovation.
Connection with crypto experts
McGregor is sharing this idea of his Europe Treasury with renowned crypto experts of the world. He tagged names like Anthony Pompliano and David Bailey on Twitter, who have played an important role in US crypto policy.
He said in his tweet:
“We need the greatest minds for this BTC Reserve. Message me and let’s chat on my space.”
McGregor is now organizing Twitter Space, where he will openly share his thoughts with the crypto community. This clearly shows that his vision is not limited to the election campaign, but he has a solid plan.
Inspiration from El Salvador
McGregor's plan is not limited to social media only. He is now going to visit El Salvador, the world's first bitcoin-friendly country. There he will participate in the Bitcoin Nation State Summit and meet President Nayib Bukele.
Bukele made El Salvador the first country in the world where Bitcoin was declared a legal tender. McGregor now wants to implement the same model in Ireland. He thinks that if a small country can increase its identity and power through crypto, then why not Ireland?
