$105,248 as an official reserve asset and create a strategic reserve. This move is anticipated to have significant repercussions in the digital asset market. Matthew Sigel, the head of digital asset research at VanEck, supports this plan, indicating that the existing legal framework is sufficient for such a step.

Matthew Sigel from VanEck stated that the U.S. could reclassify its approximately 200,000 Bitcoins to establish a strategic reserve.
