Controversial social media figure Andrew Tate has thrown his weight behind Bitcoin (BTC) once again, claiming it holds the key to rescuing the U.S. dollar. Responding to a post urging investors not to sell their holdings, Tate wrote, “Anyone who sells their Bitcoin, or even ‘trades’ it to make a few dollars is a moron. Take it from someone who speaks to those behind the curtain.”
Tate added, “The system is about to blow. BTC to 1M to force stable coins to buy US Bonds is the ONLY way out. BTC saves the dollar.”
His statement comes as Bitcoin trades at $107,647, down 1% in the past 24 hours. While many Bitcoin advocates argue its value lies in replacing fiat currencies altogether, Tate’s claim that it could “save” the dollar adds a fresh twist to the debate.
The comment also ties into his broader political ambitions. Back in January, Tate unveiled his new party, Britain Restoring Underlying Values (BRUV), promising sweeping reforms that blend pro-Bitcoin policies with hardline social stances.
At the centre of his pitch is the creation of a national Bitcoin reserve, which he says would “future-proof Britain’s economy” and act as a shield against pressure from foreign powers. He also promised to introduce blockchain-based voting, framing it as a step toward restoring public trust in democracy.
The manifesto however, quickly came under fire. Critics noted its reliance on AI-generated images, multiple spelling errors, and a lack of credible sources. Some proposals were described as extreme, including a plan to live-stream knife-crime offenders held in solitary confinement.
Other pledges ranged from capping the non-British resident population at 10% to banning LGBTQ+ content in schools and replacing modern art with monuments to historic British figures.
Tate, who remains under house arrest in Romania, has turned to social media as his main stage to push both his political vision and stance on cryptocurrency. His claim that “BTC saves the dollar” highlights how Bitcoin has become to his rhetoric, not just as a financial asset, but as part of a wider political agenda he says could reshape the global order.
