Trump Signs Executive Order to Create Strategic Bitcoin Reserve and U.S. Digital Asset Stockpile
Washington, D.C. – March 07, 2025
President Donald J. Trump signed an Executive Order today establishing a Strategic Bitcoin Reserve and a U.S. Digital Asset Stockpile. The historic decision marks a significant step forward in integrating cryptocurrencies and other digital assets into the nation’s financial framework, reflecting a forward-thinking approach to emerging technologies. This reserve will be initially funded with bitcoin already in possession of the U.S. Department of Treasury, acquired through criminal or civil asset forfeiture proceedings. Additional agencies have been directed to assess their legal authority to transfer any bitcoin holdings to the Strategic Bitcoin Reserve, ensuring a consolidated and strategic approach to managing these assets. Under the Order, the United States commits to retaining all bitcoin deposited into the Strategic Bitcoin Reserve, treating it as a long-term store of value rather than a liquid asset for sale. To further bolster the reserve, the Secretaries of Treasury and Commerce are tasked with developing budget-neutral strategies for acquiring additional bitcoin, with a clear mandate that these efforts impose no additional costs on American taxpayers.
Introducing the U.S. Digital Asset Stockpile
In addition to the Strategic Bitcoin Reserve, the Executive Order establishes the U.S. Digital Asset Stockpile, which will house digital assets other than bitcoin currently owned by the Department of Treasury, also obtained through forfeiture proceedings. Unlike the Bitcoin Reserve, the government will not seek to acquire additional assets for the stockpile beyond what is already secured through legal actions. The Secretary of the Treasury is granted authority to oversee the responsible stewardship of the U.S. Digital Asset Stockpile, including the potential for strategic sales of these assets. This flexibility ensures the government can adapt to market conditions while maintaining a disciplined approach to managing its digital holdings. Transparency and Accountability.
