The Treasury and Commerce departments are now in open competition for control of the reserve, according to a Bloomberg report published Monday and citing people familiar with the internal discussions. At issue isn’t just bureaucratic turf. It’s a live legal question: whether Treasury actually has the statutory authority to hold and manage an asset as volatile as bitcoin on the government’s balance sheet at all.

The June 7th parliamentary election was about far more than the composition of that country’s legislature. Rather, it constituted a referendum of sorts on its economic and political future. For most of the post-Cold War era, Armenia had stayed deeply dependent on Russia, both politically and str
