PANews reported on June 11 that according to CoinDesk, eight members of the Ukrainian parliament submitted a bill to authorize the National Bank to include virtual assets in foreign exchange and gold reserves. The bill leader, Yaroslav Zheleznyak, deputy chairman of the Finance and Taxation Committee, said that this move would help Ukraine integrate into global financial innovation, enhance macroeconomic stability, and promote the development of the digital economy. The proposal is empowering legislation and does not force the central bank to establish crypto reserves. Currently, Ukraine has more than 46,000 BTC held by officials, with a market value of more than $5 billion.
