1/ In a post-intervention scenario, the U.S. could view Venezuela’s alleged Bitcoin (BTC) holdings as strategic assets, alongside oil and gas, due to their role in bypassing sanctions and preserving state value.
2/ Any attempt to seize BTC would likely focus on legal authority and control of private keys, not territory. This highlights a shift from physical asset seizure to cryptographic control.
3/ If such a seizure occurred, it would set a precedent: Bitcoin would be treated not just as neutral technology, but as a geopolitical asset, influencing future sanctions, state reserves, and power dynamics.
