Bo Hines (Chief Executive Officer of Digital Assets in Trump's campaign):
The United States once owned nearly 400,000 BTC but sold about half for only 370 million USD. If held, that amount of BTC could now be worth ~17 billion USD, highlighting the strategic importance of this asset.
Bo Hines emphasizes that the United States needs to accumulate as much Bitcoin as possible, as long as it is done in a budget-neutral way (not using taxpayers' money).
The internal working group consisting of agencies such as the Department of the Treasury and the Department of Commerce is exploring various options to build a strategic Bitcoin reserve, such as a "digital Fort Knox."
Bitcoin is seen as digital gold, a commodity with intrinsic store of value, not a security, and aligns with the long-term interests of the American people.
Bo Hines emphasizes that this is the first time the U.S. has a president advocating for the accumulation of strategic assets rather than a fire sale, and his team is confident in the plan and long-term vision with Bitcoin.
