Bitcoin 2025 conference In Las Vegas, scheduled for the last week of May, it includes several notable political figures programmed as speakers, including the guests who return and the Bitcoin defender, Senator Cynthia Lummis (R-WY). They also appear the so -called “AI and Crypto Tsar” by Trump “, David Sacks and Bo Hines, the” Executive Director of the Council of Advisors of the President of Digital Assets in the White House “.
This year, a less expected contingent and almost from another world will also make an appearance, at least at the audience, if it does not transmit and look directly at the spotlights of the stage. Like Fire from The Skies, an unexpected Bitcoin donation of $ 3,000 that no one asked for clashes in Roswell, New Mexico, earlier this year, leaving members of the City Council fighting with whether to respond once again the call in history, establishing the first of the United States. Bitcoins Strategic Reserve – At the level of the city or otherwise, before other US states or even the United States Congress itself acts definitively (after the executive order of President Donald Trump).
Roswell is home to some things that may not wait: cultivation of world renowned dairy and one of the world’s world’s most large mozzarel cheese factories; Aerospace and aviation industries with a famous “Cemetery of Aircraft” that once housed Elvis Presley’s personal plane, “Hound Dog II”, for 35 years; A vibrant arts, museums and cultural scene, but also A prosperous tourism industrylargely built around what Roswell is In fact Known by: Flying Silver.
But Roswell is really known worldwide for the “UFO incident” of 1947. At the beginning of July 1947, an object presumably of unknown origin crashed and was destroyed, landing approximately in the nearby crown, New Mexico, recovered later and taken to the now missing Roswell Army Air Field 509, a military base of the era of the era of the era of the era of the era of the first world war Nuclear of the United States at the time as only the United States pilots, and officers, and officers equipped to touch them.
Speculation still decreases on whether the recovered ship and its alleged pilot and passengers, bodies reports strangely persist but are still very discussed, were of an alleged extraterrestrial location, or the result of An American military experiment.
At that time, the local newspaper, Roswell Daily Record, family property since 1891 and still printed today, the headline seen worldwide reported:
RAAF Capture Flying Shark on the Rancho in the Roswell region
Readers now know that the daily record continued with a retraction, repeating the revised statement of the military that the starry vehicle was “only” a meteorological globe at great altitude. XXI CENTURY EXAM From a photo with zoom in the photo of the staging press “Saucer Volator” of 1947 reveals otherwise, according to Donald Burleson, Cryptanalyst and former math professor at the University of the East of New Mexico, University-Roswell. Burleson is also an author published and He has written “Looking up” One of the recurring columns of the Daily Record in UFOs, for 25 years.
The city of Roswell organizes the International Center for Research of the Museum and UFOs, which opened in 1992 and attracts more than 220,000 visitors annually, said executive director Karen Jaramillo to The Associated Press during A 2023 interview Marking the 5 millionth visitor of the museum. Roswell also houses a Annual UFO FestivalThat, according to the city’s website, in 2023 “… it had a direct economic impact of $ 510,205 for Roswell …” in a year of reconstruction of blocking of blockages for events.
Strange in a strange land
Roswell in general and the newspaper both host many oddities, including myself. A Nashville transplant with A strange missionary callLast year, the record took me as its internal night copies editor, with a desk, a landline, a disease payment and everything … is a bit surreal. (They told me that the desks are from the Army Air Base of World War II. And the chairs? On day three, I brought mine).
Germaine until today, I also have certifications in Bitcoin and I have been to people who raise oranges for years. The newspaper finally allowed me to fulfill that second call of mine by contributing as a writer too, through a column on Sunday I started writing about Bitcoin, for registration. I feel honored to have been incorporated in time to document the entire “arc of history” of the hostility against the bitcoin of President Trump. and his 2024 reversal In my October 2024 opinion column, as well as the unexpectedly well received from Trump “Never sell your bitcoin! “Exclamation, while campaigning at the Nashville Bitcoin conference of 2024.World War Bitcoin“I described for newspaper readers” Normie “the strategic race that occurs between the multiple nations that now compete to accumulate and extract” the entire remaining bitcoin. “
And despite everything, they didn’t even fire me. Still. But being in the Bitcoin news industry and see the trend, in January I proposed a Bitcoins Strategic Reserve For Roswell, since the city received a donation of $ 3,000 in Bitcoin from an anonymous reader outside the state of the newspaper column. In my opinion, with or without “approval” of the government or recognition of the Bitcoin media industry, I have a confirmed blockchain transaction of January 3, 2025, which says that the Bitcoin Strategic Reserve of Roswell has been established. Period.
Who custody and handles it is still at stake, but I ask others: “Are we bitcoiners or not?”
But it is fine, the idea is currently being reflected by some councilors of the city who have given me the time of day, since I want to give the donation to the city as the beginning, and look for personal and corporate sponsorships from there (not to create new expenses or taxes for the city). We are fightingbeing honest.
While the City Council, of course, can be crazy, and Bitcoin is new and disconcerting for many, the lawyer of the city of Roswell, HESS YNTEMA, recently replied by email, “as to accept a gift from Bitcoin, in New Mexico, the municipalities of the municipalities are empowered to acquire real and personal properties. NMSA 1978, §3-18-18-1 (c) (c).
Perhaps to help with the decision -making process, I am grateful to inform that Bitcoin magazine has extended an invitation to the 10 members of the Roswell City Council, in addition to Mayor Timothy Jennings to attend the event, whether the Council approves custody and management of a Bitcoin reserve or not the Bitcoin reserve. Mayor Jennings’s office responded gracefully that he could not attend those dates, while at least another city councilor, Cristina Arnold, has pledged to be “thinking about it.” The city councilor, Ed Heldenbrand, and the city’s lawyer, HESS YNTEMA, are, with Arnold, excited to be introducing Roswell’s next step, for the sake of posterity, if not his generation: “… a great step for the future,” said Heldenbrand in a text message.
The Council of the City of Roswell meets on Thursday, May 8 at 6:00 pm mountain time, with meetings Livestressed on YouTubewhere it will be discussed whether the issue of the proposed donation is still unknown at the time of publication. However, before this meeting, two councilors of the city of Roswell, one from the City Finance Committee, have scheduled a meeting with myself and HESS this week to discuss “the procedure to accept Bitcoin”, according to a group text message from the councilor of my neighborhood that organizes the meeting.
“… Treating in the first place to the market to ensure that New Mexico remains a rich state”, state senator Anthony Thornton (R-NM, dist. 19) presented a strategic reserve billSB 275, during the recent legislative session. The bill was “presented by little” 5-4, according to Thornton.
When I was answered with an additional comment on this week about “why” a Bitcoin reserve, Thornton responded in writing detail: “I think that as our fiduciary currency based on debt (that is, the US dollar) continues to degrade by central bankers, more people, more corporations, more municipalities, more municipalities, more supplicated, the governments of overwhelm will decide They can be produced by an impression … Hence Press … hence pressures … value.
“However, Bitcoin’s scarcity and his digital mobility will probably make it the only asset used throughout the world as the best place to store capital in the long term. “
It is not surprising that Roswell’s inhabitants can still be among the first in the nation to respond to Bitcoin’s Sirena song, calling the most intelligent life forms on Earth for 16 years.
Roswellians, accustomed for now, are new random technologies of mysterious origin that appear from heaven and interrupt the entire social order, industry and established financial infrastructure, could have an unfair advantage over others in “grouping” Bitcoin because such an “incident” is already part of its collective psyche.
Readers interested in learning more about Bitcoin firsthand can be disturbingly attracted to Las Vegas this May to attend the two -day alignment of the Bitcoin 2025 Conference of Las Vegas, in addition to additional events throughout the week.
