The United States will probably acquire between 300,000 and 400,000 Bitcoins this year as part of a Strategic Bitcoin Reserve in a move that would not only reinforce the dollar’s dominance but also catalyse a historic Bitcoin bull run, according to a leading fintech advocate.
“The US will likely cement Bitcoin as a cornerstone of its financial strategy, and this monumental decision will push Bitcoin’s value to unprecedented levels,” predicted Nigel Green, CEO of deVere Group, a leading independent financial advisory and asset management organization.
Green, renowned for his accurate forecasts about the flagship cryptocurrency — including its recent surge to $100,000 — said the establishment of a Strategic Bitcoin Reserve is “almost inevitable.”
The prediction comes on the heels of U.S. Senator Cynthia Lummis’ introduction of the Bitcoin Act of 2024, which proposes acquiring one million Bitcoins over five years, funded by Federal Reserve remittances.
While Green believes “political horse-trading” may reduce the initial target, he predicts that a substantial reserve of 300,000 to 400,000 Bitcoins will still be achieved, driven by overwhelming momentum from both retail and institutional investors.
“This is more than an economic initiative; it’s a geopolitical masterstroke,” he said. “With this reserve, the US not only strengthens its position as a crypto powerhouse, but also secures the dollar’s relevance in an increasingly digital global economy.”
President Trump’s support for the proposal further bolsters its likelihood.
Trump galvanising Republicans
The deVere Group CEO said that as a vocal advocate for Bitcoin, Trump is galvanising his party — set to control the Executive, Senate, and House — around pro-crypto policies. The Chair of the Senate Banking Committee is also backing the initiative, reflecting strong institutional alignment.
“Republican dominance and Trump’s role as a pro-Bitcoin ringmaster provide the perfect conditions for such a transformative policy,” he explained.
“Also many Democrat lawmakers, who have historically supported crypto measures, are likely to back this initiative as the benefits of Bitcoin — and a strategic reserve — become increasingly clear.”
The proposal is not without challenges. Political negotiations may prevent the acquisition of the full one million Bitcoins outlined in the Bitcoin Act.
However, Nigel Green believes the sheer weight of retail FOMO (fear of missing out) and institutional demand will ensure a meaningful reserve is established.
“The creation of a reserve of 300,000 to 400,000 Bitcoins would likely trigger a Bitcoin bull run of epic proportions, driving exponential value creation and reshaping financial markets,” he said.
“As the Bitcoin Act progresses through the legislative process, it’s clear we’re entering a new financial era,” concluded Green.
“Bitcoin is no longer just a speculative asset. It is becoming a strategic tool for economic resilience and global competitiveness.”
