Trump's Strategic Bitcoin Reserve plan, established via executive order in March 2025, uses ~$17B in seized BTC as a reserve asset without taxpayer cost, akin to digital gold for hedging inflation. Feasibility: High legally (EO-based, no new buys needed), but economically risky due to BTC's volatility—economists unanimously oppose it as unstable for reserves. Symbolically boosts US crypto status, yet faces criticism for potential crashes and limited long-term value.
