U.S. military confirmed to run Bitcoin node

Natalie Brunell, Board member at Semler Scientific, Bitcoin strategy lead at Semler Scientific, reports that the U.S. military is running a Bitcoin node. A four-star admiral is said to have confirmed this under oath during the week.

Brunell suggests this development should be seen as clear evidence that Bitcoin is considered critical infrastructure. The claim brings renewed attention to the intersection of digital assets and national security in the U.S.

Brunell has previously highlighted developments in bitcoin payments, including Gemini’s launch of a credit card offering up to 4 percent back in sats, as covered in an earlier report. She has also announced events aimed at community building around bitcoin, such as the Women of Bitcoin Bash honoring Senator Cynthia Lummis. The recent comments on bitcoin and critical infrastructure add to her ongoing reporting on digital asset initiatives in the U.S.
