United States President Donald Trump has expanded his administration’s proposed crypto strategic reserve to include Bitcoin (BTC), Ethereum (ETH), Solana (SOL), XRP, and Cardano (ADA).
Initially, the reserve was set to include only Solana, XRP, and Cardano’s ADA, but Trump later confirmed that Bitcoin and Ethereum would be central to the initiative.

Trump had previously committed to a “strategic national Bitcoin stockpile” during his keynote at the Bitcoin 2024 conference in Nashville.
He vowed that the U.S. government would retain 100% of its Bitcoin holdings, framing it as a long-term policy.
However, the initiative has shifted since his Jan. 23 executive order, which called for a broader “digital asset stockpile,” sparking frustration among Bitcoin maximalists.
Looking ahead, Trump will host the first White House crypto summit on March 7, where he will meet with industry leaders and members of the Digital Asset Working Group to discuss the future of U.S. crypto regulations.
This move highlights his administration’s evolving stance on digital assets, signaling a potentially significant shift in the U.S. government’s approach to cryptocurrency policy.
