The Financial History of the United States May Be on the Brink of a Major Turning Point

The financial history of the United States may well be on the brink of a major turning point. As national debt reaches new heights and economic tensions multiply, a key player in the crypto sector, Michael Saylor, is proposing a bold strategy: making bitcoin a national strategic asset.

At a summit held at the White House on March 7, the founder of Strategy outlined a plan for massive investment from the U.S. government in bitcoin. Suggesting that the United States should acquire between 5 and 25 % of the total BTC supply by 2035, Saylor's proposal is as ambitious as it is controversial. It is based on a long-term vision where bitcoin would become a pillar of American economic prosperity. In response to this announcement, the White House has already taken a first step by signing a decree that establishes a strategic reserve of bitcoin.

The United States Seizes Bitcoin : An Unprecedented Proposal

In his presentation at the White House summit, Michael Saylor detailed a strategy for making the United States the largest holder of bitcoin. Breaking down his thoughts in a document titled A Digital Assets Strategy to Dominate the 21st Century Global Economy, Saylor suggested that Washington should invest in bitcoin through programmatic purchases each year between 2025 and 2035, to reach a total holding of 0.8 to 2.5 % of the total BTC supply by 2035. This would amount to a total of 1.3 to 5.25 million BTC.

According to Saylor, the goal is to create a national reserve of bitcoin, an asset that could become an inexhaustible source of wealth for the country. This reserve could generate up to $10,000 billion annually by 2045, significantly supporting the American economy. Before this deadline, Saylor’s projections estimate that this strategy could yield between $16,000 and $81,000 billion to the U.S. Treasury, thus alleviating national debt. To support his arguments, he insisted on a strict policy: “never sell the acquired Bitcoin.” A vision that resonates with that adopted by some companies and countries silently accumulating bitcoin as a store of value.

A Gradual Adoption Orchestrated by the Trump Administration

Saylor’s initiative comes at a time when the Trump administration is making a decisive push to integrate cryptocurrencies into the fabric of U.S. financial policy. Indeed, several government agencies, including the SEC and the Treasury, have been working on legislation and regulations for the crypto sector.

In the same vein, the Trump administration has also shown interest in cryptocurrencies as a means of combating crime. Earlier this year, the administration announced plans to create a new fund, named the “Digital Asset Stockpile,” which will be used to collect and manage cryptocurrencies seized by U.S. authorities in criminal cases.

This initiative is part of a broader effort by the Trump administration to strengthen the U.S. economy and financial standing in the 21st century. As the global financial landscape continues to evolve rapidly, the Trump administration is seeking to adopt new and innovative strategies to ensure the long-term prosperity of the United States.
