President Donald J. Trump established a Strategic Bitcoin Reserve by signing an executive order on March 6, 2025, shifting U.S. cryptocurrency policy in Washington.

U.S. to Treat Bitcoin as Strategic Reserve Asset
President Trump signed the order, treating Bitcoin as a strategic reserve. This move positions the U.S. as a leader in digital asset strategy.
The executive order involves David Sacks as AI and Crypto Czar. It directs the Treasury and Commerce Secretaries to develop Bitcoin acquisition strategies.
207,000 Bitcoin Held: Impact on Global Supply
The reserve, holding over 207,000 Bitcoin, valued at $17 billion, may reduce Bitcoin supply. This impacts the global market with fewer circulating Bitcoins.
Trump’s policy highlights Bitcoin’s role in national strategy, affecting market dynamics and emphasizing U.S. leadership in crypto assets.
