Trump still wants U.S. bitcoin purchases without new federal spending

Former White House crypto adviser Patrick Witt said President Trump still wants the U.S. to buy bitcoin without increasing federal spending, with the administration exploring alternative funding mechanisms. No details were disclosed on which mechanisms are under consideration, the scale of any purchase, or a timeline.

The remarks are the latest sign that a federal bitcoin reserve remains on the administration's agenda as it weighs how to fund acquisitions without adding to the federal budget. Source.
