Trump’s plan differs from his earlier notion of a Bitcoin stockpile, in which the US would merely keep its current Bitcoin holdings. On the other hand, a strategic reserve implies a proactive cryptocurrency accumulation. The crypto community is divided about the move.
Because of its security and decentralization, some contend that Bitcoin ought to be the only asset in the reserve. Some worry that a government-controlled cryptocurrency reserve may weaken the dollar and be susceptible to future political changes.#qasimmughal #USCryptoReserve #MarketRebound
