Bitcoin always crashes loudly and recovers quietly.
Zoom out and watch for lost levels slowly reclaimed through terrible sentiment. We don't need clarity bills or rate cuts. Fiat is broken. The long-term trend is in tact.
If you're not paying attention, you should be.
@TheLegacyHODL Yes sir. The pressure has been building for some time. BTW, I still have your family custody info and will be reviewing it. Thanks for what you do.
We give extraordinary amounts of emotional energy to things Scripture tells us are “passing away” (1 John 2:17).
That does not make temporal matters irrelevant. It makes them relative.
Christ’s Kingdom will remain when every earthly kingdom is gone.
Order your loves accordingly.
🇺🇸🚨 BREAKING:
The US just took its first real legislative step toward a permanent Bitcoin reserve. Here's exactly what happened today, and why it matters more than another committee vote usually would.
The House Financial Services Committee just advanced H.R. 8957, the American Reserve Modernization Act, ARMA for short.
Here's what it actually does:
Seized Bitcoin stops getting auctioned off by the government. It flows straight into a Treasury-held reserve instead.
A 20-year lockup. No trading, no swapping, no selling, full stop.
Mandatory third-party proof-of-reserve audits. Real, verifiable confirmation the coins are actually there.
New purchases must be budget-neutral. No new taxes. No new debt. Treasury and Commerce first have to study how that's even possible.
Here's the part that actually changes everything: right now, the Strategic Bitcoin Reserve exists only because Trump signed an executive order in March 2025. That means the next president could erase it with a single signature, no debate, no vote, nothing. A law passed by Congress can't be undone that easily.
That's the real headline. This isn't about buying more Bitcoin today. It's about making the reserve that already exists impossible to casually delete.
What still has to happen:
A full House floor vote, still unscheduled, and time is genuinely tight. Members leave Washington after September 17th until after the November midterms.
Then the Senate, where there's no companion bill yet, and where 60 votes are required. One meaningful detail: Democrat Jared Golden is already a co-sponsor, giving this real bipartisan cover from day one.
There's also a possible shortcut: folding these provisions into the year-end defense budget (NDAA), a path that's worked for other contested bills before.
Finally, the president's signature. Once that happens, Treasury has 180 days to actually stand the reserve up.
Reality check, because this deserves one: today's vote didn't buy a single Bitcoin. This is a committee gate, not a finish line.
But for the first time ever, the idea of a US Bitcoin reserve is moving through actual legislation, not just an executive order sitting one signature away from disappearing.
