#BitcoinReserveDeadline refers to the deadline, on May 5, 2025, established by an executive order from former President Donald Trump, for the U.S. Department of the Treasury to assess the creation of a Strategic Bitcoin Reserve. This reserve would consist of bitcoins seized in previous legal actions, such as in the cases of Silk Road and the Bitfinex hack, totaling approximately 198,000 BTC, valued at over US$ 1,740,266,024,118 billion.

Objective of the Strategic Bitcoin Reserve

The main objective is to incorporate Bitcoin as a strategic asset in the U.S. national reserves, similar to gold. The proposal aims to hold these digital assets as a store of value, without selling them, ensuring that there are no additional costs to taxpayers.

Implications and Reactions

The initiative has sparked intense debates in the cryptocurrency sector. While some see the measure as a historic step that could accelerate global adoption of Bitcoin, others express skepticism about its implementation and potential political impacts.

Relation to Binance

Binance, one of the largest cryptocurrency exchanges in the world, is not directly involved in the creation of the U.S. Strategic Bitcoin Reserve. However, the company has been closely monitoring the developments of this initiative, highlighting its importance to the digital asset market.
