$BTC This strategic reserve is capitalized with approximately 200,000 bitcoins owned by the federal government, which were obtained from assets seized in criminal or civil cases, and will not impose any additional burden on taxpayers. The United States will not sell any bitcoins deposited in the reserve, treating them as a means of value storage. Furthermore, the executive order also establishes a U.S. digital asset repository for holding other seized digital assets besides bitcoin. At the same time, the order directs a comprehensive review of the U.S. government's digital asset holdings.

These two types of 'bitcoin vaults' are fundamentally different; the former is a corporate-level capital allocation strategy, while the latter is a government-level strategic reserve initiative.
