David Sacks: Trump Signs Executive Order to Establish Strategic Bitcoin Reserve
David Sacks, White House AI and Cryptocurrency Director, stated, "Just minutes ago, President Trump signed an executive order establishing a strategic bitcoin reserve. This reserve will be capitalized with bitcoins owned by the federal government through criminal or civil asset forfeiture proceedings—meaning it will cost taxpayers not a single dollar. It is estimated that the U.S. government holds approximately 200,000 bitcoins; however, no full audit has ever been conducted. The executive order mandates a comprehensive accounting of the federal government’s digital asset holdings.
The United States will not sell any bitcoin deposited into the reserve. It will be retained as a store of value. For a cryptocurrency often referred to as 'digital gold,' this reserve functions like a digital Fort Knox. Premature sales have already cost American taxpayers over $17 billion. Now, the federal government will develop a strategy to maximize the value of its bitcoin holdings.
The Secretary of the Treasury and the Secretary of Commerce are authorized to develop budget-neutral strategies to acquire additional bitcoin, provided these strategies do not impose incremental costs on U.S. taxpayers. Additionally, the executive order establishes a U.S. Digital Asset Repository, which includes digital assets beyond bitcoin seized in criminal or civil litigation. The government will not acquire other assets for the repository beyond those obtained through forfeiture. The repository will be responsible for managing government digital assets under the leadership of the Treasury Department.
Promises made, promises kept. President Trump promised to establish a strategic bitcoin reserve and a digital asset repository. These commitments have now been fulfilled. This executive order underscores President Trump’s determination to make America 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 taking swift action to support 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 assistance and support in completing this work. Finally, Bo Hines played a key role as our working group’s executive director."
FOX Reporter: Government Will Explore Ways to Acquire More Bitcoin Without Burdening Taxpayers
According to Forbes business journalist Eleanor Terrett, Trump’s executive order will create two separate systems: a Strategic Bitcoin Reserve and a Digital Asset Inventory.
The Strategic Bitcoin Reserve will include around 200,000 BTC acquired through criminal and civil forfeitures. The government is authorized to explore methods of acquiring more bitcoin without imposing additional burdens on taxpayers.
The Digital Asset Inventory will contain other digital assets such as $XRP, $ADA, $ETH, and $SOL, although the government will not actively purchase these assets. The executive order also requires a comprehensive audit of all digital assets held by the government. As David Sacks noted, the inventory aims for “responsible management of government digital assets by the U.S. Treasury.”
WLFI and Sui Announce Strategic Partnership, SUI Assets to Be Included in "Macro Strategy" Token Reserve

Under the agreement, WLFI will include SUI assets in its "Macro Strategy" token reserve, and both parties have begun exploring product development opportunities.
CZ: AI and AI Agents May Become Trends Over the Next Decade, But Specific Forms Remain Unpredictable
Binance founder Changpeng Zhao (CZ), responding to whether "AI agents could become a trend over the next decade," said:
"AI, yes. AI agents, very likely. Any specific AI agent? Uncertain. Not sure if there will even be a definitional distinction between AI and AI agents ten years from now. Terminology evolves over time. The 'crypto industry' was once called the 'blockchain industry,' which before that was the 'Bitcoin industry.'"
Previously, CZ noted that predicting crypto trends over a ten-year horizon is relatively easy, but forecasting tomorrow’s market movements is extremely difficult.
