The Trump administration is floating a bold new idea: use tariff revenue to buy Bitcoin for the U.S. strategic reserve. According to Bo Hines, Executive Director of Digital Assets, this approach could complement other proposals like revaluing gold certificates to fund further crypto accumulation.

The goal? Position the U.S. as a global leader in digital finance—starting with BTC.

So far, the crypto market appears receptive. On-chain metrics show whales are stacking sats, with wallets holding 10+ BTC reaching an all-time high. Exchange outflows are rising, while sell-side pressure is at record lows. All signs suggest investors are holding firm through the tariff noise.

This kind of strategic accumulation from institutions—or even governments—could significantly shift sentiment. If the U.S. begins buying Bitcoin with tariff revenue, it may inject confidence into the market and transform tariffs from a perceived risk into a bullish catalyst.

Short term, Bitcoin continues to trade between $83K and $85K. A breakout past $88,500 could be on the table if sentiment strengthens.

Will this policy be the spark that sends BTC to $90K? Time will tell—but long-term holders seem to think so.
