US President Donald Trump signed a decree that provides for the creation of a special strategic reserve of bitcoins. This was reported by AP, as conveyed by UNN.
Details
According to information from the White House, this reserve will be filled with cryptocurrency that has been seized as part of criminal investigations.
Under the new plans of the administration, bitcoins will be stored as a kind of "digital gold" that is to become part of the country's financial reserves. However, after the announcement of the new reserve, the bitcoin price experienced a slight decline. This surprised many investors, as they expected more active purchases of this cryptocurrency by the US government.
