History just unfolded before our eyes. The U.S. has officially established its Strategic Bitcoin Reserve.
With a stroke of the pen, President Trump signed an Executive Order creating a Bitcoin reserve that positions BTC as a core reserve asset of the United States. The first domino has fallen, and while the structure might not be as aggressive as some had hoped, it validates the narrative we’ve been pushing for years: Bitcoin is a reserve asset of the future.
But what's in the order?
- The U.S. will hold and centralize Bitcoin seized in criminal or civil forfeiture proceedings instead of selling it off.
- It establishes a long-term strategic reserve, meaning that the U.S. government will not sell the Bitcoin it holds in this reserve.
- The Treasury Department may explore budget-neutral strategies to acquire more BTC without burdening taxpayers.
- The order formalizes a national digital asset stockpile, though non-Bitcoin assets may still be sold.
While some were hoping for an immediate, large-scale Bitcoin purchasing spree, the reality is this move brings legitimacy and stability to Bitcoin’s role in state-level reserves. Instead of dumping seized BTC at a loss, the U.S. government is now acknowledging its strategic value, something Luxembourg should take note of.
The question has never been if governments will hold Bitcoin. It has always been who will do it first, and who will do it best. The U.S. has made its move, but Europe remains on the sidelines.
This is where the Orange Heart Initiative comes in. We have been advocating for a Bitcoin Strategic Reserve for Luxembourg, a hedge against monetary instability, a future-proof asset, and a step toward financial sovereignty.
While the U.S. starts securing its position, Luxembourg still has the chance to be Europe’s leader in Bitcoin reserves. The first-mover advantage is massive, but only for those bold enough to take it.
The Orange Heart Initiative continues. 🧡 Luxembourg, the time to act is now.
