US Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent recently made it clear to Fox Business that the government will not be purchasing Bitcoin to add to its existing reserves.
“We will not buy,” Bessent said, adding that the strategic Bitcoin reserve, put in place by President Donald Trump in March, will only be increased through legal seizures.
For months, the Trump administration has been touting the possibility of the government purchasing Bitcoin. This prospect excited investors, anticipating both the potential legitimacy it could provide to the cryptocurrency in the eyes of the government and the potential deflationary impact of large-scale purchases on Bitcoin's price. However, Bessent's latest statement has put that hope on hold for now.
