Crypto Experts React to Trump’s U.S. Crypto Reserve Proposal

Will Trump’s Crypto Reserve Plan Reshape the U.S. Economy?

U.S. President Donald Trump has proposed a groundbreaking idea—creating a U.S. Crypto Reserve, where the country would hold Bitcoin and other major cryptocurrencies as part of its financial strategy. This has sparked major reactions from top crypto experts, including Michael Saylor, Anthony Pompliano, CZ Binance, and Nic Carter.

What Did Trump Say?

Trump has made it clear that the U.S. should embrace cryptocurrencies instead of resisting them. He believes holding Bitcoin and other digital assets in a national reserve would strengthen America’s economic position and help the country compete in the growing global crypto market. As part of this push, he is set to host a White House Crypto Summit on March 7, where these ideas may be further discussed.

How Experts Reacted

Michael Saylor

MicroStrategy’s Michael Saylor has always been a strong supporter of Bitcoin, calling it the “foundation of the crypto economy." While he didn’t directly comment on Trump’s proposal, his past statements suggest he sees Bitcoin in a national reserve as a smart and strategic move for the U.S.

Anthony Pompliano 

Pompliano pointed out that altcoins have a very different risk profile compared to Bitcoin and gold. If the U.S. is considering holding altcoins, he suggested they might as well invest in tech stocks too.

"If the United States is going to put altcoins on their balance sheet, then the US should start buying tech stocks as well. Very different risk profile from those assets compared to sound money principled assets like gold and bitcoin."

CZ Binance 

The Binance founder, CZ, urged people not to overanalyze Trump’s statement. He believes more valuable cryptos will be added over time and that other countries will likely follow the U.S. in adopting this strategy.
"Attention of all bag holders is on this one word now. Chill guys. No need to overanalyze. More 'valuable crypto' are likely to be added over time. More countries will follow. It's a fantastic start of something really good. Be happy. Keep building."

Nic Carter 

Nic Carter raised concerns about which cryptocurrencies would be included. He specifically questioned the inclusion of Ethereum (ETH), Solana (SOL), Cardano (ADA), and XRP, warning that government involvement in crypto reserves could lead to unintended consequences.
"Today feels like a good day to repost my anti-SBR article. I stand by it, especially in light of the inclusion of ETH, SOL, ADA, and XRP."

What’s Next?

If Trump’s proposal moves forward, the U.S. could become the first major country to hold Bitcoin as a reserve asset. This could significantly boost Bitcoin’s price and drive wider adoption. However, challenges such as regulatory concerns, security risks, and political debates could determine whether the plan becomes a reality.

For now, the crypto world is closely watching, as this idea has the potential to reshape America’s financial future and global crypto adoption.
