🇺🇸💰 U.S. Treasury Shakes Crypto Markets: No New BTC Buys… For Now! 🚨🪙
Crypto fam, big update from Washington! Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent just dropped some 🔥 news on live TV:
📉 No fresh Bitcoin buys for the U.S. Strategic Reserve.
💼 Current stash = $15–20B worth of BTC (all seized, none bought).
🔒 “We’re not selling.” Government plans to hold and even add more seized BTC.
🪙 Reserve already sits at ~198,000 BTC, per Arkham data.
But wait… Bessent later clarified on X 👀:
➡️ The Treasury will explore budget-neutral ways to get more BTC without using taxpayer money.
⚡ Bullish Spin
U.S. officially treating Bitcoin as a strategic asset. 🚀
No selling = tighter supply. 💎✋
Potential pathways to expand BTC stash = bullish signal long-term.
😬 Bearish Spin
No outright buying = market hype cooled fast. 🥶
Short-term red across crypto as traders wanted more aggressive action. 📉
Uncertainty on “budget-neutral” strategies = question marks for now.
🔮 Outlook
This isn’t the “U.S. is buying BTC” headline bulls dreamed of… but it’s not bearish either. The U.S. just confirmed it’s HODLing billions in Bitcoin and may grow that stash through smart plays.

Would you HODL if you were Uncle Sam?
