U.S. Plans National Bitcoin Reserve as Institutional Interest Booms

As Bitcoin prices surge past $126,000, a U.S. government initiative to establish a strategic Bitcoin reserve is taking shape. Officials are accelerating this plan following recent remarks by Representative Lummis praising President Trump’s role in its development. The initiative follows months of collaboration between the Treasury Department, the Digital Asset Working Group, and private-sector advisors to design a national crypto strategy, fueled by discussions about reallocating existing gold reserves to Bitcoin.
