Bitcoin 2025 Conference Signals Strategic Support
Bitcoin's QUR is resilient thanks to important policy statements and legislative support at the Bitcoin 2025 conference, which began a day earlier.
At an industry event, Bo Hines, the White House adviser on digital assets, highlighted the administration's commitment to bitcoin, calling it "digital gold." Hines stated that the U.S. government has no intention of selling its bitcoin holdings and is seeking to accumulate even more through strategic reserves.
Senator Cynthia Lummis also made headlines by stating that President Donald Trump supports the BITCOIN Act initiative, a bill that proposes to purchase up to 1 million BTC over five years.
The bill, which will be submitted to the Senate next week, aims to formally create a Strategic Bitcoin Reserve, originally funded by bitcoin seized as part of federal cases.
The Bitcoin 2025 conference attracted a lot of attention, with industry leaders and policymakers discussing the future of digital assets.
The event's high-profile announcements have contributed to bitcoin's price stability as investors anticipate increased institutional adoption and government support for the cryptocurrency.
This year's event is expected to be the largest to date, with more than 30,000 people and 5,000 companies taking part and more than 400 speakers.
