Just a few minutes ago, President Trump signed an Executive Order to establish a Strategic Bitcoin Reserve.

The Reserve will be capitalized with Bitcoin owned by the federal government that was forfeited as part of criminal or civil asset forfeiture proceedings. This means it will not cost taxpayers a dime.

It is estimated that the U.S. government owns about 200,000 bitcoin; however, there has never been a complete audit. The E.O. directs a full accounting of the federal government’s digital asset holdings.

The U.S. will not sell any bitcoin deposited into the Reserve. It will be kept as a store of value. The Reserve is like a digital Fort Knox for the cryptocurrency often called “digital gold.”

Premature sales of bitcoin have already cost U.S. taxpayers over $17 billion in lost value. Now the federal government will have a strategy to maximize the value of its holdings.

The Secretaries of Treasury and Commerce are authorized to develop budget-neutral strategies for acquiring additional bitcoin, provided that those strategies have no incremental costs on American taxpayers.

IN ADDITION, the Executive Order establishes a U.S. Digital Asset Stockpile, consisting of digital assets other than bitcoin forfeited in criminal or civil proceedings.

The government will not acquire additional assets for the Stockpile beyond those obtained through forfeiture proceedings.

The purpose of the Stockpile is responsible stewardship of the government’s digital assets under the Treasury Department.

PROMISES MADE, PROMISES KEPT

President Trump promised to create a Strategic Bitcoin Reserve and Digital Asset Stockpile. Those promises have been kept.

This Executive Order underscores President Trump’s commitment to making the U.S. the “crypto capital of the world.”

I want to thank the President for his leadership and vision in supporting this cutting-edge technology and for his rapid execution in supporting the digital asset industry. His administration is truly moving at “tech speed.”

I also want to thank the President’s Working Group on Digital Asset Markets — especially Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent and Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick — for their help and support in getting this done. Finally Bo Hines played a critical role as Executive Director of our Working Group.

[Autism Capital 🧩 @AutismCapital]

The year is 2030. The United Party of America passed an unrealized gains tax. I had to sell my assets to pay for my assets which triggered a capital gains tax that I had to sell more of my assets for. Then they printed more money which inflated my assets and now I have no assets left to sell to pay the taxes on my assets. 😭

This is not a doom and gloom post, but if one would objectively observe from the outside, it would appear that…

Planes are falling apart in the sky.

Trains are derailing.

Murders are openly happening in subways.

Power plants are getting shut down by cyber terrorists.

Homeless and fentanyl are overtaking many major cities.

And now a major bridge collapse of a major port.

Housing, groceries and commodities are starting to run out of control for any middle class and lower class family to be able to pay for it with their current wages.

Almost no money was offered to Hawaii after it burned down or East Palestine, OH after a train derailed with chemicals.

In the mean time, we are funding illegal immigrants en masse as they occupy our cities, fund foreign wars on multiple fronts for causes that are not our own and claim that our country is doing great based on inflated and manipulated statistics.

One can only draw the conclusion that neither democrat nor republican in our government actually cares about the United States or its citizens.

We have a crumbling infrastructure that can barely sustain our existing population.

We just passed a $1.2 trillion spending bill that was drafted 24 hours before it passed.

How can anyone in our government read it or know what’s in it?

70% of it is going to defense spending yet again… $886 million.

Our own pentagon has failed every audit it’s had and cannot say where the money is going.

This on the heels of losing over $1 trillion in weapons and equipment and cash in Afghanistan that was handed over to the Taliban on a silver platter.

This is all happening while our debt is $34.2 trillion, we continue to spend on defense while we have a wide open border.

Anyone with half a brain can see that closing our border is the most important aspect of national defense and national security.

Our taxes are not paying for our safety, our infrastructure or our progress and growth.

It’s going to enrich defense contractors and corporations that are prostituting our politicians for the highest price.

I think we can all agree that something radical needs to change inside of Washington, D.C. similar to Argentina in order to turn this around.

Otherwise, we are on a runaway train with no brakes at this point.

Any research on water fasting while sick? Does the physiological changes while sick make fasting helpful or harmful?

@TheWarMonitor Controversial, I know. I am so confused by the Christian obsession with the Jewish state. Shouldn’t the future of Israel (after Jesus) be for Christians? Genuinely thinking through it myself.

[Tony Ashy @tonyashy]

@TheWarMonitor I look at the text as symbolic and not literal. I do not believe the Israel of today is the Israel of the Bible. In fact, DNA sequencing has shown that the closest direct descendants of the Israelites are: Samaritans, Palestinians, Levant Syrian/Lebanese Christians.

Bitcoin blows minds for many reasons.

Computer scientists say Satoshi solving the Byzantine Generals problem blew their minds.

Economists might be mystified by an asset that goes up in price without producers increasing production to increase supply.

Oil drillers say finding an alternative to flaring excess gas that's cleaner and more profitable was mind blowing.

Human rights advocates say being able to own an asset which cannot be confiscated in a corrupt country, allowing people to grow wealth and escape tyranny was mind blowing.

Power plant operators will say the load balancing capability of mining is mind blowing.

Merchants or users of remittance services will say the fact that BTC lowers friction and fees is mind blowing.

Some might say Bitcoin encouraging saving and long term thinking is mind blowing.

If Bitcoin hasn't blown your mind, you just haven't viewed it through the right lens yet.

@GadSaad Serious question, talking about proportions. How far back do we go between Israel and Arab States when it comes to this conflict? Do we start tallying proportions after Oct 7? Is the slate wiped clean of atrocities from both sides before Oct 7? Important to distinguish.

@9mmsmg Been thinking about this feedback loop. A post doing “well” essentially yields more engagement. Engagement=Money.

Our media is financially incentivized, even if subconsciously, to promote hate/anger/negativity.

A negative aspect to free speech, no great solution.

[Tony Ashy @tonyashy]

@9mmsmg Agreed.

@benshapiro Bloodthirsty Ben, now agreeing with Graham. Welcome to the club. Good to know you are okay with wiping hundreds of civilians for one bad guy. There was no warning, clear war crime. I hope you are profiting well from these takes, or grow enough balls to go over and fight yourself.
