👇1-18) Trump’s social media posts have kept expectations of a Strategic Bitcoin Reserve alive. However, a key distinction exists between a "reserve" and the "creation and maintenance of a national digital asset stockpile."

👇2-18) The term "reserve" suggests a proactive strategy of acquiring more assets, whereas January’s executive order focused on "evaluating the potential creation and maintenance of a national digital asset stockpile." This wording implied a passive approach, primarily holding onto the $19.1 billion in seized crypto assets (97.9% of which is Bitcoin) rather than actively purchasing more.

👇3-18) That said, we wouldn’t overinterpret Trump’s tweet, as Congress may still be far from approving such a reserve or stockpile. While Trump’s commitment is notable, any formal congressional directive could still be months away. As of March 3, 2025, no official U.S. strategic Bitcoin reserve has been formally established, but several notable announcements, proposals, and actions related to the concept have been made.
