Trump Says U.S. Government Has Discussed Buying Bitcoin

President Trump is reopening the possibility of direct U.S. government Bitcoin purchases.
Speaking after the White House crypto summit, Trump said a “sizable” government purchase of Bitcoin has been discussed.
That would go beyond the current Strategic Bitcoin Reserve framework.
The reserve established by the White House is primarily built around Bitcoin already held by the government through criminal and civil asset forfeitures.
A direct purchase program would be fundamentally different.
It would turn the U.S. government from a passive holder of seized Bitcoin into an active buyer in the market.
No purchase plan, size or timeline has been announced, and Trump’s comments do not mean a transaction has been approved.
But even discussing direct accumulation marks a potentially major shift in U.S. Bitcoin policy.
The question is no longer just whether Washington keeps the Bitcoin it already owns.
It is whether the U.S. eventually starts buying more.
