While the bitcoin price continues to hold above a meaningful zone of support, in the U.S., President Donald Trump's initiative to create a cryptocurrency reserve is meeting resistance. A member of the Democratic Party has demanded that the U.S. Treasury Department prohibit the administration of Donald Trump from forming a strategic cryptocurrency reserve, citing a a conflict of interest. It is argued that this initiative does not benefit the Americans, but could significantly enrich Trump himself and his supporters. The White House, however, emphasizes that the Digital Asset Stockpile will only include confiscated cryptocurrencies, while the Bitcoin reserve will be replenished exclusively through budget-neutral strategies that do not affect taxpayer funds.
