US Military Is Running A Bitcoin Node, Four-Star Admiral Reveals

US military is operating a Bitcoin node for cybersecurity experiments and network monitoring, not for financial purposes, according to Admiral Samuel Paparo, commander of US Indo-Pacific Command. During a House Armed Services Committee hearing, Paparo emphasized Bitcoin's value as a computer science tool for power projection and securing networks. He highlighted the protocol's combination of proof-of-work, blockchain, and cryptography as having direct national security implications. The military's interest lies in Bitcoin's technological applications rather than its economic aspects, viewing it as a strategic protocol for cybersecurity and digital property protection.

US Military Confirms Running Bitcoin Node, Four-Star General Calls It a 'Power Projection Tool'

U.S. Indo-Pacific Command (INDOPACOM) Commander Admiral Samuel Paparo has confirmed that the military command is operating a Bitcoin network node and conducting cybersecurity tests using the protocol. In testimonies before the Senate and House Armed Services Committees, Paparo characterized Bitcoin not as a financial asset but as a "computer science tool" and a "tool of national power." He emphasized its value in cybersecurity, particularly the proof-of-work mechanism, which imposes physical costs on attackers and can be applied in both offensive and defensive cyber operations. This marks a significant shift in the Pentagon’s narrative, moving from targeting illicit finance to recognizing Bitcoin as a technology with national security implications. INDOPACOM is not mining Bitcoin but is using the node for monitoring and operational testing. The move signals the U.S. military’s direct participation in the Bitcoin network and reflects growing geopolitical interest in the protocol’s strategic potential.
