Speaking of recent trends in the crypto world, simply watching BTC daily price movements is outdated. The real game-changer is a deeper strategic play—the shift in the US government's attitude toward Bitcoin.

On March 6th of this year, the US directly signed an executive order announcing the establishment of a strategic Bitcoin reserve. The key point of this move is: zero additional fiscal expenditure. How is that achieved? All from previously confiscated assets.

According to on-chain data, the US government currently holds about 198,000 BTC, derived from 94,000 BTC from the Bitfinex hack and over 130,000 BTC from the Silk Road case, valued at over $23.5 billion at current market prices. More importantly, these coins have never entered a selling process, clearly indicating a long-term strategic holding.

At Bitcoin conferences and other public venues, US officials have revealed more aggressive targets: expanding the reserve to 1 million BTC within five years. This is not a casual statement but a clear signal—sovereign nations are integrating digital assets into their core strategic asset allocations.

From institutional entry to ETF approvals, and now to long-term national-level holdings, the structure of market participants has undergone a fundamental transformation. What this shift means for the market over the next three to five years is something every participant should seriously consider.
