Major Jason Lowery, a U.S. Space Force officer, has applied for a position as a military advisor with the goal of integrating Bitcoin into the U.S. defense strategy. He believes that Bitcoin and its proof-of-work protocol can play a critical role in maintaining the country’s economic and technological security.
His research aims to shed light on Bitcoin’s role not only from an economic perspective, but also as a vital element of national security in the digital age. Major Lowery hopes to advise the Department of Defense on the national strategic importance of Proof-of-Work (PoW) technology and provide policy recommendations to senior leaders regarding strategic Bitcoin pools and the US Hash Force.
