#TrumpBTCTreasury On March 6, 2025, President Donald J. Trump signed an executive order to establish a Strategic Bitcoin Reserve and a Digital Assets Reserve in the United States, marking a milestone in the country's cryptocurrency policy. The Bitcoin reserve will be capitalized with approximately 200,000 BTC, valued at around $17 billion, obtained from confiscations in criminal and civil proceedings. According to David Sacks, cryptocurrency advisor to the White House, this reserve aims to position the U.S. as a leader in digital assets, comparing it to a "digital Fort Knox." The order prohibits the sale of these bitcoins, treating them as a store of value. Furthermore, the Secretaries of the Treasury and Commerce are authorized to develop strategies to acquire more BTC at no additional cost to taxpayers. This initiative reflects Trump's commitment to making the U.S. the "crypto capital of the world."
