#BitcoinReserveDeadline : A Pivotal Moment for Crypto Sovereignty.
The U.S. Treasury’s May 5, 2025, deadline to finalize plans for a Strategic Bitcoin Reserve marks a historic shift in global finance. Mandated by President Trump’s March 2025 executive order, this initiative aims to consolidate seized Bitcoin into a national reserve, treating it as a sovereign asset akin to gold, while halting auctions that previously flooded the market . With the U.S. holding ~200,000 BTC ($19 billion) from forfeitures, the reserve could ignite a supply squeeze, driving Bitcoin’s price—already near $95,000—toward $100,000 as institutional FOMO intensifies . Analysts argue this move cements Bitcoin’s role as “digital gold” and pressures rival nations to adopt similar strategies or risk economic obsolescence . The deadline not only reshapes U.S. crypto policy but signals a broader geopolitical race for digital asset dominance.
