US Plans Strategic Bitcoin Reserve
California’s move comes as the federal government also looks at crypto in a big way. The U.S. Congress has also brought a bill named as the Bitcoin Act of 2025 (S.954), with the objective to create a Strategic Bitcoin Reserve. If this gets passed, the government would buy 1 million BTC over a span of 5 years and hold them for 20 years. It will act as a store of value in the long-term and safeguard the economy against inflation. 
This bill already got strong favor in both the House and the Senate. It depicts that Bitcoin could become a prominent part of the United State’s economic development in the future. 
Trump’s Crypto Push
Back in March 2025, President Donald Trump signed an executive order to start building a US Strategic Bitcoin Reserve and a Digital Asset Stockpile. The move was meant to make the U.S. a global leader in the digital assets and secure federal digital assets. The government plans to manage this reserve securely and use it as an economic hedge. As of writing BTC is priced at $105,366.00 with a decrease of 0.08% as per the CoinMarketCap.
