In March 2025, President Trump signed an executive order establishing Bitcoin as a strategic reserve asset for the US government, consolidating about 328,000 BTC mainly from seizures and forfeitures. However, the order did not allocate taxpayer funds to purchase additional Bitcoin, instead directing Treasury and Commerce to explore ways to grow the reserve without direct market buys. Despite initial expectations, the government has not actively expanded its Bitcoin holdings. Meanwhile, Bitcoin's price has dropped 26% over the past year, and related legislation to modernize the reserve faces low chances of passing in 2026. The key question remains whether the US will turn its seized Bitcoin into a growing strategic asset.
