Reprinted from panewslab
03/07/2025·2MPANews March 7th news, Fox Business News reporter Eleanor Terrett posted on the X platform that Trump's executive order established two different digital asset storage mechanisms:
- 1. Strategic Reserve, which stores only Bitcoin (BTC), is the initial source of funds from about 200,000 Bitcoins obtained by the government over the years through criminal and civil confiscations. It authorizes Finance Minister Bessent and Commerce Minister Lutnick to be allowed to explore ways to obtain more Bitcoin without increasing the burden on taxpayers, and is positioned as a national digital value reserve.
- 2. Digital Asset Stockpile, which contains other digital assets other than Bitcoin—may include XRP, ADA, ETH, SOL and other assets. The Ministry of Finance is responsible for "responsible management" of digital assets held by the government. The government will only explore using a budget neutral way to buy more Bitcoin, and will not actively seek to increase the number of other digital assets in the reserve. The executive order also requires a comprehensive audit of all digital assets currently held by the government to ensure transparency in asset management.
