Bo Hines (CEO of the President’s Council of Advisors on Digital Assets):

– Bitcoin is considered the "gold standard" in the world of digital assets, and the Trump administration has openly regarded Bitcoin as digital gold.
– He affirmed: The U.S. wants to own as much Bitcoin as possible and views it as an asset with intrinsic store-of-value, distinct from securities.
– This is why the government established the Strategic Bitcoin Reserve (SBR), designed to accumulate BTC without selling.
– Hines emphasized that the government is seeking to acquire as much Bitcoin as possible in a budget-neutral manner, as it is an asset that should be “harnessed for the benefit of the American people.”
– He concluded firmly: “We will not sell any Bitcoin held by the United States government. Period.”
