India Launches Bitcoin Policy Institute on 79th Independence Day to Boost Economy

On India’s 79th Independence Day, while the nation celebrated its political freedom, a big move in the world of cryptocurrency, one that focuses on financial freedom. The Bitcoin Policy Institute of India (BPI India) officially launched at midnight on August 15, 2025, with a mission to make Bitcoin a key part of India’s economic future.

New Plan for India’s Economy

In a recent tweet post, the Bitcoin Policy Institute India (BPI) says now is the time for “financial freedom,” where India controls its economy without relying on other nations.

However, BPI India wants to connect Bitcoin technology with Indian leaders by sharing research, education, and advice. Their aim is simple, to help India not just take part in the new global economy but become a leader in it.

Meanwhile, Mithilesh Kumar Jha, one of the founders, says Bitcoin can help protect India from global political problems, make payments cheaper, and even turn the country’s renewable energy into digital wealth, an idea already growing in many developing countries.

BPI India Steps Toward Bitcoin Strategy

BPI India has started its journey by publishing a white paper on state-level Bitcoin mining opportunities. The institute is also creating a “CFO Playbook” to guide Indian companies on holding Bitcoin in their corporate treasuries. 

On top of it, BPI India’s plan focuses on five main areas to promote Bitcoin across the country, which will help both governments and businesses adopt Bitcoin in a safe and strategic way.

Firstly, using renewable energy for Bitcoin mining, guiding governments with clear policy data, promoting Bitcoin as a treasury asset, teaching people about Bitcoin and financial literacy, and enabling faster, low-cost transactions for businesses and individuals. 

These steps aim to boost India’s financial independence and make the economy more self-reliant.

Global Market Boost Fuels Momentum

Over the past few weeks, Bitcoin’s price has been pushing higher, supported by growing liquidity, and hints of U.S. rate cuts in September & October make it more attractive for riskier assets like Bitcoin. 

For Indian investors, this comes at a time when global crypto adoption is expanding, and the local market is becoming more receptive to digital assets.

As of now, Bitcoin price is trading around $119, reflecting a drop of 2% seen in the last 24 hours.
