#TrumpBTCTreasury Donald Trump announced plans to create a "Bitcoin Reserve" in the United States if he is elected president again.
The idea is for the U.S. to hold a strategic reserve of Bitcoin, similar to reserves of oil or gold. Trump also promised to stop the war against cryptocurrency and be a friend of Bitcoin.
This proposal has generated debate and speculation about how it would affect the cryptocurrency market and U.S. monetary policy. Some see it as a way to legitimize Bitcoin, while others fear it could create risks for the economy.
Donald Trump with Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies. Recently, Trump announced plans to create a Strategic Bitcoin Reserve in the U.S. if he is elected president again. This reserve would consist of Bitcoin already held by the government, mainly coming from confiscation processes and civil penalties.
*Strategic Bitcoin Reserve*
- The measure seeks to consolidate the U.S. position in the global digital economy and establish more strategic control over its digital assets.
- The Department of the Treasury will be responsible for the administration of the Strategic Bitcoin Reserve, receiving all units of BTC seized by the government and not destined for other legal purposes.
Trump has also invested in cryptocurrencies, with digital assets representing about 60% of his personal fortune, estimated at US$ 5.5 billion.
He has made millions through DeFi ventures and holds a significant stake in Trump Media & Technology Group, which acquired Bitcoin for its corporate treasury.
*Other Initiatives*
- *World Liberty Financial*: a project aimed at launching WLFI, a digital currency associated with the Trump family, with the potential to raise up to US$ 300 million.
- *Review of regulations*: Trump plans to replace Gary Gensler, chairman of the SEC, known for his strict stance on cryptos, to create a more friendly regulatory environment that favors innovation in the sector
