President Donald Trump has signed a Bitcoin reserve order to protect the approximately 200,000 BTC held by the U.S. Treasury and to develop strategies for future acquisitions. Analysts suggest that the “neutral budget” principle may bring up options like selling gold to buy Bitcoin.
Bitcoin Acquisition Strategies Considered
According to former Binance Research analyst Jiang Jinze, the U.S. government could take four different approaches to increase its Bitcoin reserves:
- Seized BTC: New BTC could be seized through legal means, but the current Bitfinex case means that the net reserve of around 100,000 BTC is currently seen as sufficient.
- Gold Sale: The government could sell its existing gold reserves to acquire Bitcoin.
- Customs Tariffs: Part of the revenue could be used for Bitcoin purchases, though the Secretary of Commerce has temporarily shelved this option.
- Bitcoin Mining: The government may consider Bitcoin mining using its idle computing resources.

Michael Saylor has announced that the U.S. is developing strategies for Bitcoin acquisition in line with its “neutral budget” policy. Saylor has reached out to David Sacks, the White House crypto advisor, to discuss the details at a summit.
It remains to be seen whether the U.S. government will implement these strategies.
