The United States is becoming more serious about solidifying its dominance in the world of Bitcoin and cryptocurrency.
In a historic move, President Donald Trump signed an executive order on Thursday (63) to establish the Strategic Bitcoin Reserve and U.S. Digital Asset Stockpile, marking a significant shift in US policy toward digital assets.
"America will be the Bitcoin superpower of the world. The Golden Age of America has begun!" wrote the official White House account on platform X.
This statement emphasizes that the US wants to be a global leader in the crypto industry while creating a new golden age for its digital economy.
At the White House Crypto Summit on Friday (3/7), Trump emphasized that this move is part of his campaign promise to make the US a major hub for Bitcoin and global crypto.
"Last year I promised to make America the Bitcoin superpower and the capital of crypto in the world. Today, we take a historic step to make it happen," Trump said in his speech.
As a concrete step, the US is now consolidating seized digital assets into a national reserve managed by the US Department of the Treasury, similar to a digital version of Fort Knox that holds Bitcoin as the "digital gold" of the future.
The White House Moves Quickly Under Trump's Leadership
David Sacks, White House AI & Crypto Czar, praised Trump's speed in taking strategic steps in the technology and finance sectors.
"It's amazing to work for a President who moves at the speed of technology for the American people," wrote Sacks on platform X.
With a more open approach to crypto, the White House is committed to balancing innovation and regulation, creating an ecosystem that allows industry growth without excessive bureaucratic hurdles.
With this new executive order, the US shows its seriousness in leading the blockchain-based financial revolution. If this policy continues, it is not impossible for the US to become a major hub for Bitcoin and the global crypto industry.
However, challenges remain: how will the US government balance innovation with regulation that does not stifle the industry?
Clearly, a new era of Bitcoin in the US has begun, and the world will see how Trump's next steps will shape the future of the global crypto industry.
