US President Donald Trump officially launched the creation of the Strategic Bitcoin Reserve with the executive order he signed on March 6, 2025. With this step, Bitcoin gained the same legal status as gold and oil. According to the statement made by the White House, the US government will keep the 200,000 BTC it holds as a reserve and will not sell these assets.
However, this is just the beginning for the US! The "Crypto Summit" to be held at the White House today at 21:00 (GMT+3) will determine the future of Bitcoin and digital assets. Under the leadership of President Trump, the Treasury Secretary, the Minister of Economy and leading names in the crypto market will discuss the financing details of the US's additional Bitcoin purchases and crypto reserves.
This decision had a great impact on global financial markets. Considering that MicroStrategy founder Michael Saylor holds 500,000 BTC alone, it is very clear that the US's 200,000 BTC reserve will not remain at this point. However, this is considered the beginning of a revolution in the financial system.
So what will happen now?
Seeing that the US has officially created a Bitcoin reserve, companies, financial institutions and even countries will take action to add Bitcoin and altcoins to their reserves. The acceptance of digital assets at the institutional and state level will accelerate. In addition, altcoins will be included in the strategic reserve system with the creation of the US Digital Asset Stock.
We are currently in the middle of a financial revolution. The crypto market is witnessing a turning point in history!
