BITCOIN Act of 2025

The BITCOIN Act of 2025 requires the U.S. Treasury to establish a Strategic Bitcoin Reserve for government-held Bitcoin, directing the purchase of 200,000 Bitcoins annually for five years (1 million total). All government Bitcoin holdings must be stored in decentralized cold storage facilities across the U.S. with a mandatory 20-year holding period during which the Bitcoin cannot be sold or disposed of. The Treasury must publish annual reports and implement a "Proof of Reserve" system for transparency, funded through Federal Reserve remittances and proceeds from gold certificate sales. The bill also allows states to voluntarily place their Bitcoin in segregated accounts within the reserve while affirming private property rights for individuals holding Bitcoin.
