In 2025, President Trump initiated a U.S. government-backed Bitcoin trading operation through the Strategic Bitcoin Reserve. This operation aims to enhance national economic security by strategically acquiring and managing Bitcoin assets seized from criminal proceedings. While no taxpayer funds are used, the reserve may actively engage in Bitcoin trading to optimize asset value, guided by budget-neutral principles. The Treasury and Commerce departments oversee operations, ensuring compliance and transparency. This marks the first formal U.S. entry into sovereign crypto asset management, positioning Bitcoin alongside gold as a strategic reserve asset while signaling a bold embrace of digital finance in global markets.
