➡️ 🚨 BREAKING: TRUMP SIGNS EXECUTIVE ORDER CREATING U.S. BITCOIN RESERVE. BITCOIN PRICE FALL
Trump has officially established the Strategic Bitcoin Reserve and U.S. Digital Asset Stockpile, marking a major shift in U.S. crypto policy. The reserve will be funded using Bitcoin seized in criminal and civil forfeitures—no taxpayer money involved. The U.S. is estimated to hold around 200,000 BTC, but there’s never been a full audit. Unlike past sales that lost taxpayers $17 billion, this Bitcoin won’t be dumped—it’s being stored as a digital Fort Knox. The executive order also directs a full accounting of U.S. digital asset holdings, aiming to maximize value and solidify America as the crypto capital of the world. Bitcoin plunged approximately 6% after US President Donald Trump signed an executive order to establish a Strategic Bitcoin Reserve. Market participants had hoped the government would announce a plan to buy more Bitcoin, but Trump’s crypto tsar David Sacks said on X it would only use the Bitcoin it already holds from criminal cases — though it will look to develop “budget-neutral” strategies to acquire additional Bitcoin. The White House is also set to host a Crypto Summit today, led by @DavidSacks, with industry leaders including Coinbase's Brian Armstrong. ockpile, making Bitcoin an official part of U.S. financial strategy.
