Bitcoin & U.S. Strategic Reserve: A Historic Shift

The United States has officially entered the Bitcoin accumulation race, with President Donald Trump signing an Executive Order to establish a Strategic Bitcoin Reserve. This initiative aims to build the government’s BTC holdings through law enforcement seizures rather than taxpayer-funded purchases, ensuring fiscal responsibility.

Impact on Bitcoin Price & Market Dynamics

Despite the announcement, Bitcoin’s price dipped 2.7% to $88,000, as traders anticipated more immediate large-scale acquisitions. The U.S. will also manage reserves of Ethereum (ETH), Solana (SOL), XRP, and Cardano (ADA).

Technical Analysis: BTC Key Levels to Watch

• Support Levels: $75,000 & $60,000
• Resistance Levels: $90,000 & $100,000

This policy shift signals a growing global competition for Bitcoin reserves, further cementing its role as a strategic asset within national economies.
