#BTCReserveStrategy
What is the Bitcoin reserve strategy?
A U.S. Strategic Bitcoin Reserve Could Help Offset National Debt. The BITCOIN Act proposes that the U.S. Treasury acquire up to 1 million Bitcoin over 5 years and hold it in a Strategic Bitcoin Reserve for at least 20 years as a store of value to strengthen the nation's balance sheet.
The United states is known as largest holder of bitcoin in the world, estimated to hold about 200,000 BTC, as of March 2025. The reserve has provoked mixed reactions, from some economists criticizing the idea, to governments of several states initializing similar projects.
A handful of state legislatures have made similar proposals that would allow their governments to buy and hold bitcoin and other digital assets, and two other states — Arizona and New Hampshire — have passed legislation to create their own crypto reserves, but Texas is the first to fund one with state dollars.
