#TrumpBTCTreasury The hashtag #TrumpBTCTreasury refers to the actions taken by Donald Trump's administration regarding Bitcoin and the U.S. Treasury. Here's a breakdown of the key developments:
Strategic Bitcoin Reserve and U.S. Digital Asset Stockpile:
* Executive Order: In March 2025, President Donald Trump signed an executive order establishing a "Strategic Bitcoin Reserve" and a "U.S. Digital Asset Stockpile." This move aims to position the United States as a leader in government digital asset strategy.
* Funding: The Strategic Bitcoin Reserve is primarily capitalized with Bitcoin that the Department of Treasury has forfeited as part of criminal or civil asset forfeiture proceedings. Other agencies are also evaluating their legal authority to transfer any Bitcoin they hold to this reserve.
* No Sales: A key aspect of this reserve is that the United States will not sell Bitcoin deposited into it; it will be maintained as a store of reserve assets.
* Acquisition Strategies: The Secretaries of Treasury and Commerce are authorized to develop "budget-neutral" strategies for acquiring additional Bitcoin, meaning these strategies should not impose incremental costs on American taxpayers. This could potentially include open-market purchases.
