Trump bitcoin strategic reserve faces legal, jurisdiction hurdles

U.S. President Donald Trump’s plan for a strategic bitcoin reserve is facing legal and jurisdictional problems, The Block reported on July 6, citing Bloomberg News. The plan would be funded with bitcoin already held by the government from criminal and civil seizures and a separate digital-asset reserve. Bloomberg reported questions over whether the Treasury can legally manage the reserve and whether it could be held indefinitely given bitcoin’s volatility.
