#TrumpBTCTreasury Donald Trump, upon his return to the White House in January 2025, made significant moves regarding cryptocurrency, aiming to make the US the "crypto capital of the world." He signed an executive order to establish a "Strategic Bitcoin Reserve" and a "U.S. Digital Asset Stockpile."

This reserve is intended to be capitalized with Bitcoin already owned by the US Treasury, primarily seized from criminal and civil forfeiture proceedings. As of March 2025, the US was estimated to hold around 200,000 BTC, making it the largest known state holder. Trump has also expressed interest in purchasing additional Bitcoin for the reserve, with some proposals suggesting the acquisition of up to 1 million BTC over five years. This initiative signals a shift towards embracing digital assets as a strategic national asset.
