Trump tariffs revenue could be used to boost bitcoin reserve

A principal presidential advisor suggested that the United States government was planning to use the income of Trump prices to buy Bitcoin as part of its plan to build a national cryptography reserve.

BO HINES, Executive Director of the Presidential Council for Digital Assets, confirmed the strategy in an April 14. interview With the cryptographic investor Anthony Poseliano. “We look at many creative ways, whether from prices, whether from something else,” said Hines. “Everything is on the table.”

The administration plans to acquire so much Bitcoin (BTC) that possible without adding to the national debt or increasing taxes. In addition to the income of prices, another approach under study is the reassessment of the golden certificates of the American treasury, which are still registered at $ 43 per ounce, well below the market price of more than $ 3,200.

This reassessment could generate a large surplus of paper, which would then be used to finance Bitcoin purchases without selling gold itself. Hines said that the objective was to build a long -term reserve and not to exchange or sell the assets.

“We have obviously clearly indicated that we want to acquire as much as possible. We must acquire Bitcoin in a neutral budgetary manner which does not cost a penny to a taxpayer. ”

The initiative has already been supported by key personalities from the Trump’s economic team, including the trade secretary Howard Lutnick and the secretary of the Treasury Scott Bessent. The proposal also aligns with the Bitcoin law of 2025, supported by senator Cynthia Lummis.

The bill proposes that the United States acquire up to a million BTC over five years to establish a reserve. Part of this bitcoin could come from assets already held by the government, such as crypto seized in criminal cases.

Hines said the White House is also working on a digital asset strategy expected this summer. He will describe how the United States plans to support cryptographic innovation, regulate sectors such as development and tokenization, and promote the stables of the US dollar worldwide.

Meanwhile, the price of bitcoin has recovered a bit of weekly stockings caused by concerns about Trump price. Last week, Bitcoin fell below $ 80,000, reaching a hollow of about $ 75,000. He has since recovered and negotiated about $ 85,505 from press time.

The short-term bullish momentum is indicated by the recovery by the cryptocurrency of its mobile average at 50 days. However, this upward trend can be tested by resistance at $ 88,000.
