Bitcoin Reserve Established by Trump Order

President Trump Authorizes Strategic Bitcoin Reserve

  • President Donald Trump signed an Executive Order to create a U.S. Strategic Bitcoin Reserve.
  • The reserve will utilize Bitcoin obtained through criminal or civil asset forfeiture.
  • The initiative is designed to be budget-neutral, with no cost to taxpayers.
  • The U.S. government holds approximately 200,000 BTC, valued at $17.7 billion.
  • A separate Digital Asset Stockpile will include non-Bitcoin assets from forfeiture proceedings.

This new initiative aims to leverage the U.S.’s estimated 200,000 Bitcoin holdings, currently valued at $17.7 billion, without imposing additional costs on taxpayers.
