U.S. Considers Strategic Bitcoin Reserve in New Bill
Congress proposes a bill to explore a Strategic Bitcoin Reserve and federal digital asset stockpile.
- U.S. bill aims to assess a Strategic Bitcoin Reserve
- Treasury to study feasibility and custody of digital assets
- Growing global interest in crypto reserves
In a significant move, U.S. lawmakers have introduced a new bill that could reshape how the federal government interacts with cryptocurrencies. The proposed legislation calls for the U.S. Treasury to study the creation of a Strategic Bitcoin Reserve and a broader “Digital Asset Stockpile” — a concept that echoes strategies now being adopted in other nations.
Treasury Tasked With Exploring Crypto Holdings
The bill requires the Treasury to evaluate whether the United States should establish a formal reserve of Bitcoin and other digital assets. This includes not only assessing the feasibility but also setting up a custody framework that aligns with federal regulations. The study would consider factors like security, compliance, and long-term strategy.
Lawmakers behind the bill argue that as digital assets become increasingly influential in global markets, the U.S. must position itself strategically. A federal crypto reserve could serve as a hedge, a monetary tool, or a resource for financial innovation.
U.S. Joins a Global Trend Toward Crypto Reserves
This proposal comes as several countries signal interest in building their own national crypto reserves. Kazakhstan’s President Tokayev recently proposed a similar initiative, while South Africa’s Altvest Capital is rebranding as “Africa Bitcoin Corp.” with plans to raise $210 million for Bitcoin acquisitions.
The U.S. bill doesn’t guarantee the creation of a Strategic Bitcoin Reserve, but it does open the door for serious discussions at the highest levels of government. With increasing institutional interest in digital assets and mounting geopolitical shifts, the timing could be critical for U.S. crypto policy.
If approved, the Treasury’s findings could pave the way for a formal U.S. entry into state-level crypto holdings — something that could redefine both economic policy and the crypto industry.
