U.S. to Hold Confiscated Bitcoin as Strategic Reserve Asset from January 2026

On 8 January 2026, Scott Bessent stated on Fox Business that the United States has started treating confiscated Bitcoin as part of a strategic reserve instead of selling it. He emphasized that the government will not purchase Bitcoin on the open market, but will keep seized BTC, marking a shift away from its previous policy of routine liquidation and indicating a reassessment of Bitcoin's strategic role.
