Ah, the land of the free and the home of the brave is now also the land of the Bitcoin hoarders! ๐ฆ ๐ผ The U.S. government, in its infinite wisdom, might be sitting on a dragon’s lair of up to 88,000 BTC, ready to unleash its crypto power, excluding the Bitfinex loot, of course. ๐๐ฐ
we think current US bitcoin balance available for re-purpose into a reserve is max 88k BTC, only 43% of current government holdings. thatโs bc of the ~198k BTC now held by USG, 112k BTC will be returned to bitfinex
market will learn the difference between โseizedโ & โforfeitedโ ๐คจ๐ฉโโ๏ธ

David Sacks, the White House’s own AI and Crypto Czar (sounds like a fancy title, doesn’t it? ๐), wants us to believe that this Bitcoin stash is coming from the good ol’ asset seizures, ensuring the taxpayers don’t foot the bill. But, oh, the plot twist! Only the forfeited Bitcoin can be used, not the seized ones, cutting the dream pile down to a mere 88,000 BTC. Talk about a buzzkill! ๐๐ธ
And guess what? Bitcoin is the government’s favorite child, making up a whopping 97.7% of its digital asset portfolio. Add Wrapped Bitcoin to the mix, and it’s practically a monopoly! ๐ช๐จโ๐ฉโ๐งโ๐ฆ
Meanwhile, Trump’s out here playing 4D chess, setting up a Strategic Bitcoin Reserve and making waves in the crypto space. Coinbase’s Brian Armstrong is all like, “This is huge! Other countries are gonna jump on this bandwagon faster than you can say ‘blockchain.'” ๐๐
The end game was never โthe U.S. government buys all of the worldโs bitcoin.โ
A U.S. Strategic Bitcoin Reserve meansโฆ
โ Other countries will buy bitcoin
โ Wealth managers have no excuse
โ Financial institutions have no excuse
โ Pensions/Endowments have no excuse

Ryan Rasmussen, the sage of Galaxy Digital, drops some truth bombs about how this reserve is a game-changer. It’s like saying, “Hey, world, we’re not selling our BTC, so you might as well buy some too.” ๐๐๏ธ It’s a free pass for everyone from your local state government to that wealthy aunt with the questionable investment advice. ๐ต๐ผ
And here’s the kicker: owning Bitcoin means the U.S. is less likely to go all “Big Brother” on crypto. Because, you know, it’s kind of hard to ban something you’re actively collecting. ๐ซ๐ This shift is rewriting the Bitcoin narrative faster than a teenager’s status update. ๐๐ถ
Despite the market doing its usual rollercoaster impression, Bitcoin is holding strong, trading at around $87,800. The Mar. 7 White House Crypto Summit is just around the corner, ready to stir the pot and shape the future of Bitcoin in the financial system. ๐ฆ๐ฎ
Let’s not forget the images, because a picture is worth a thousand satoshis.
