U.S. President Donald Trump has just signed an executive order establishing the U.S. Strategic Bitcoin Reserve. This is the first time the U.S. government has officially recognized and stored Bitcoin as a strategic asset.
Key points of the policy:
Bitcoin obtained from asset seizures: The government will store Bitcoin from seizures in criminal or civil cases, instead of selling them as before.
No tax money used to buy Bitcoin: The government will not directly purchase Bitcoin from the budget, but will retain the Bitcoin obtained from recoveries.
Establish a "U.S. Digital Asset Stockpile" to store other cryptocurrencies besides Bitcoin.
Strategic goal: Benefit from Bitcoin's limited supply, which could become a valuable long-term asset.
