🏛️ Crypto Reserve: Trump’s Proposal Sends Shockwaves Through the CommunityÂ
Donald Trumphas once again challenged the status quo — this time with a proposal to create a U.S. national cryptocurrency reserve. The announcement triggered a wave of reactions from the crypto industry. Support, doubt, and skepticism — all in one thread.
đź’¬ Brian Armstrong (Coinbase):
“If you’re going to create a crypto reserve, make it Bitcoin. It’s digital gold — doesn’t get simpler than that.”
He also suggested a crypto index fund based on market capitalization as an alternative.
đź’¬ Arthur Hayes (BitMEX):
“Sounds nice, but nothing changes without legislation. Just words.”
đź’¬ Changpeng Zhao (Binance):
“Don’t fixate on BTC. It’s just the beginning — other assets will follow. What matters is that the movement has started.”
đź’¬ Peter Schiff (Euro Pacific Capital):
“I can see the point of a Bitcoin reserve. But XRP? What’s the point of that?”
The key question remains unanswered:
What is a crypto reserve in the eyes of the government?
A hedge? A currency asset? Or just a political meme?
While regulators remain silent, the industry is already imagining what the U.S. state crypto wallet could look like — and who would hold the keys.
