News | Trump Officially Signs Executive Order for Strategic Bitcoin Reserve
United States President Donald Trump officially signed an executive order to establish a Strategic Bitcoin Reserve on Thursday (06/06) local time.
"A few minutes ago, President Trump signed an Executive Order to establish a Strategic Bitcoin Reserve," tweeted White House AI and Crypto Chief David Sacks.
The reserve will be capitalized with Bitcoin owned by the federal government from seizures. This is part of the process of seizing criminal or civil assets that will not cost taxpayers a dime.
There is no complete audit yet, but the US government is estimated to own around 200,000 Bitcoins. Nevertheless, the Executive Order directs full accounting of the federal government's digital asset ownership.

US Core Rises 0.4%, Chances of Fed Rate Cut Reduced
The Consumer Price Index (CPI) released by the US Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS), the United States (US) labor statistics bureau, today showed that the core CPI in January rose 0.4% and exceeded the government's target. The increase in the core CPI was triggered by car insurance, airline tickets, and increases in prescription drug costs.
In the BLS report, the core CPI rose to its highest level most often in March, which stagnated around 0.4% and the worst in December 2023 at 0.5%.
The rising US CPI also has the potential to reduce the chances of the Federal Reserve (The Fed) cutting interest rates this year and shows that US inflation has increased since early 2025.
Meanwhile, the monthly CPI increased in January and was the highest since August 2023, with increases by various household expenses such as groceries and energy, as well as housing costs.
Not only that, US inflation has increased quite high every January, this is in line with the company's strategy to increase the prices and costs of their products at the beginning of each year.

Rises to US$97,000 After Trump-Putin Agree to Meet
Bitcoin rose to US$97,000 after US President Donald Trump and Russian President Vladimir Putin agreed to hold a meeting in Saudi Arabia in the coming days. Previously, the largest digital asset fell to US$94,000 after inflation was announced to have risen to 3%.
It is known that the two leaders wanted to discuss the Russia-Ukraine war, with Trump negotiating with Putin to stop the war in the European region.
Previously, this war was also responsible for triggering the crypto bearish market in 2022. However, with the potential for the war to end, digital assets could fully recover from the recent market decline.
Not only Bitcoin, the altcoin market also experienced an increase, with XRP, BNB, Cardano, and Dogecoin each experiencing increases of 2%, 9%, 3% and 5%, respectively.
On the other hand, oil prices fell more than 2% after this announcement, Wednesday (12/02) after previously rising due to concerns about global supply.

Confirms No Digital Dollar Release During His Term
Federal Reserve (The Fed) Chairman Jerome Powell has firmly stated that the United States will not introduce a digital dollar aka Central Bank Digital Currency (CBDC) during his term. This statement marks a significant change from previous considerations, where the Fed had explored the potential for a digital dollar.
This assertion was conveyed during a Senate Banking Committee hearing on Tuesday (11/02), where he responded to a direct question from Senator Bernie Moreno. Powell answered "Yes" when Moreno asked about his commitment not to issue a CBDC during his term.
CBDC critics, such as Nicholas Anthony of the Cato Institute, praised Powell's commitment, citing potential risks to financial freedom, privacy, and market stability.
Unlike decentralized crypto digital assets such as Bitcoin (BTC), CBDCs will be issued and regulated by the government, which has the potential to raise concerns about oversight. Powell's statement comes as several countries are actively experimenting with their own digital currencies.
This US policy highlights a contrast with global trends, especially under President Trump's administration, which has prohibited the Fed from trying to promote or issue CBDCs. Powell stressed the need for congressional approval to issue a CBDC.

Europe Prepares US$206 Billion AI Investment to Compete with US-China
The European Union plans to spend 200 billion euros or equivalent to US$206.15 billion for the development of artificial intelligence (AI). This step aims to catch up with the United States and China in building more complex AI models.
European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen emphasized that Europe wants to become a center for AI innovation. The plan is stated in a program called InvestAI, which includes 20 billion euros for the construction of large-scale AI factories (gigafactories).
"We want Europe to be one of the main leaders in the field of artificial intelligence, which means AI must be part of our daily lives," said Ursula at the AI Action Summit in Paris.
The program will also be strengthened with an additional 50 billion euros to encourage investment from the private sector, which has previously promised 150 billion euros for the development of AI in Europe.
It is known that this initiative emerged after the United States announced the Stargate project, a US$100 billion joint venture to build an AI data center. Meanwhile, China is also advancing by developing an AI model that can compete with US technology.

US Inflation Soars to 3%, Bitcoin Drops to $94,000
The Consumer Price Index (CPI) in the United States rose to 3% from a year earlier in January 2025, faster than economists expected.
The January CPI often reflects large price adjustments made by companies to start the year. So, this report marks an important time for the US central bank's progress in controlling inflation.
It was observed that the S&P 500 and Nasdaq 100 each fell more than 1%. On the other hand, the yield on 10-year government bonds rose seven basis points to 4.60%, and the US dollar strengthened slightly.
On Tuesday (11/02), Federal Reserve (The Fed) Chairman Jerome Powell said that there was no need to rush to lower interest rates. In response, Trump ordered to lower interest rates via his social media account.
"Interest rates have to be lowered, something that will go hand in hand with the tariffs that are coming!" said Trump.
The crypto market responded with Bitcoin prices dropping back to US$94 thousand this evening.

Some Things Traders Should Pay Attention to in 2025.
2025 is still a long way off and we are still at the beginning of the year, many things could happen this year according to our will or beyond our will. So, as a market participant, what are the things to consider?
*#1Increase Income, Reduce Leverage.**
Don't have the fantasy that you can be "full time crypto". Continue to improve your skills and try your best to get a high active income that can be reinvested in crypto. Also reduce leverage because it is a double-edged sword that can keep us away from the financial freedom we desire.
*#2Keep Having Exposure to Bitcoin.**
It is very important to keep having exposure to Bitcoin if we don't want to "fall" in this cycle. Exposure of more than 50% of the portfolio to Bitcoin will give us "safety". If we are still confused about when is the "best" time to enter, we can make installment purchases of 10% every month from time to time while earning a salary and active income.
*#3Don't "All In". **
All in here is not only right-aligned leverage, but also when we are overexposed in Altcoins and do not have other liquid capital reserves. This often happens because we feel too comfortable with the situation and are too busy "shopping" for Altcoins so that we lose liquidity and do not have liquid capital when a correction occurs.
*#4Have Realistic Expectations. **
In general, the first cycle is for "learning", the second cycle is for making a profit, and the third cycle is for maintaining it. Don't let yourself be too "eager" in the first cycle to get rich so that you lose everything you have fought for over the previous few years. Always have realistic expectations.

Asian Currencies Plunge to Lowest Levels Due to Trump Policy Projections
The Asian currency index experienced a sharp decline to its lowest level in the last two decades driven by the strengthening of the US dollar. This strengthening occurred along with optimism about US economic growth and President-elect Donald Trump's plan to raise trade tariffs.
The _Bloomberg Asia Dollar Index_ was recorded to touch 89.0409, Monday (06/01). This is the lowest level since this data began to be calculated in 2006.
"There will be an increase in the dollar exchange rate against Asian currencies in general, although the level of impact will vary," said Alvin T. Tan, Head of FX Strategy at Royal Bank of Canada in Singapore.
It seems that central banks in Asia are expected to respond to this situation by allowing their currency exchange rates to weaken in a controlled manner.
Meanwhile, the South Korean won currency even fell to its lowest level in 15 years, followed by the Indian rupee which also experienced the same thing.
On the other hand, the weakening of the Asian currency index, including the rupiah and other currencies, has a significant impact on the cryptocurrency industry. Because usually, when the local currency weakens, crypto assets become more attractive to domestic investors. This is because the price of crypto on the exchange in local currency becomes cheaper, encouraging more people to invest.

Research Predicts Dogecoin Will Reach US$1 This Year
Galaxy Research predicts that Dogecoin (DOGE) has the opportunity to make new history in 2025. According to Galaxy Research Analyst Alex Thorn, DOGE's value is expected to soar by 170% from its current price, breaking through US$1 for the first time.
If this prediction comes true, Dogecoin's market capitalization is projected to reach US$100 billion. In line with that, Galaxy Research Analyst Charles Yu predicts a major change in the dominance of the *stablecoin* market.
Tether (USDT), which has been leading, is expected to lose market share to below 50% due to competition with high-yielding *stablecoins* such as Ethena (USDe), and Circle (USDC).
Yu explained that platforms like Coinbase that provide incentives on USDC balances could shift Tether's dominance. This prediction shows the dynamics of the crypto market that continues to develop towards the future.

# **Anticipating Quantum Computing, Solana Launches Vault to Protect Network**
Solana (SOL), the 6th crypto asset by market capitalization, has launched a new feature called "Solana Winternitz Vault" on its network to protect user funds from the threat of quantum computers. This is if quantum computers have developed, it can threaten the crypto industry.
This is a solution to withstand the potential that quantum will cause. This feature uses advanced cryptographic techniques that are useful for protecting digital assets from the risks of quantum computing.
It is known that Solana Winternitz Vault uses a hash-based signature system, the same as Bitcoin (BTC). This method produces a new key for each transaction that can make it difficult for quantum computers to exploit and break the key.
The system also uses a cryptographic protocol called Winternitz One-Time Signatures, which creates a private key scalar and hashes it to create a public key, and stores part of the hash for verification.

The closeness of the two began after Eric Trump became increasingly vocal in supporting the growth of Bitcoin in recent months. Especially after Eric spoke at the Bitcoin MENA 2024 conference in Abu Dhabi in December 2024 regarding his prediction that Bitcoin would reach US$1 million per coin.
Eric told Saylor that he believed in Bitcoin's unique ability to protect against inflation, political instability and natural disasters. In fact, he called Bitcoin a global asset.
Trump's third son was also in the spotlight after praising his father's pro-crypto stance, to the point of dubbing Trump the most pro-crypto president in US history.
According to Eric, Saylor is one of the most influential figures in crypto, especially since MicroStrategy has become the largest Bitcoin holding institution today.
