White House Digital Assets Executive Order Enters Second Year
An executive order establishing a strategic Bitcoin reserve and digital asset stockpile has now been in place for more than a year.
The executive order signed early in the current US administration establishing a strategic Bitcoin reserve and a broader digital asset stockpile has now been in place for more than a year. The order directed federal agencies to consolidate seized cryptocurrency holdings under a Treasury-managed programme.
Implementation has been gradual. The Treasury has published inventory data on seized assets, and the President's Working Group on Digital Asset Markets has continued to issue reports on possible frameworks for stablecoins and market structure.
Congress remains the primary venue for durable policy changes, with several stablecoin bills continuing to move through both chambers.
