The President of the USA, Donald Trump, signed an executive order to create a Strategic Bitcoin Reserve, storing it as a strategic asset, similar to gold in Fort Knox. The reserve will consist of 200,000 bitcoins already confiscated by the government, with no new acquisitions using public funds. Initially, the market reacted with optimism, but upon realizing that there would be no additional purchases, Bitcoin fell by more than 3%, reaching $85,000 before recovering to $88,000. The measure legitimizes Bitcoin institutionally and may influence other countries, but also highlights the sensitivity of investors to government policies.
