Senator Cynthia Lummis (R-WY) has expressed concerns over the potential sale of 69,370 Bitcoin by the United States Marshals Service, a move that stems from the Silk Road asset forfeiture. In a letter to the agency, Lummis questions the timing and motivation behind selling these Bitcoin holdings, suggesting that it may be driven by political interests. She points out that such actions contradict efforts to establish a National Bitcoin Stockpile.
The potential sale, which was approved after Judge Richard Seeborg dismissed a petition to halt the asset forfeiture, is still subject to further confirmations. This development runs counter to proposals for creating a Bitcoin strategic reserve in the US. The idea of such reserves is gaining global traction, yet remains politically contentious due to cryptocurrencies being a relatively new asset.
Research analyst Matt Hogan from Fidelity Digital Assets speculates that by 2025, various governments and institutions may incorporate Bitcoin into their portfolios as they recognize the risks associated with not doing so. In line with this, Lummis suggested last November that the US Treasury should consider converting some of its gold reserves into Bitcoin to support a national strategic reserve. Some industry experts predict that establishing a Bitcoin reserve could potentially elevate Bitcoin’s value to $1 million per coin, especially following the line of thought expressed by prominent figures like Adam Back, who foresees such a reserve significantly boosting Bitcoin’s market value.
