#TrumpBitcoinEmpire Donald Trump signed an executive order to create the Strategic Bitcoin Reserve in the United States, with the aim of making the country the "world capital of cryptocurrencies". The reserve will be capitalized with bitcoins confiscated by the federal government, valued at around $18 billion-$19 billion. According to David Sacks, a cryptocurrency specialist at the White House, the reserve will not cost taxpayers anything and will be held as a store of value, similar to a "digital Fort Knox".
