ROLLUP: Crypto’s Nasdaq Problem | The CLARITY Act | Saylor Selling? | ETH L1 Scaling

Were scattered across the DOJ, you know, cold wallets and desk drawers.

ROLLUP: Crypto’s Nasdaq Problem | The CLARITY Act | Saylor Selling? | ETH L1 Scaling

So you need something centralized, some cold storage, some Fort Knox type of infrastructure in order to do this.

Bankless
ROLLUP: Crypto’s Nasdaq Problem | The CLARITY Act | Saylor Selling? | ETH L1 Scaling

I think also an audit framework will be part of this.

Bankless
ROLLUP: Crypto’s Nasdaq Problem | The CLARITY Act | Saylor Selling? | ETH L1 Scaling

I think they'll formalize that we're not selling Bitcoin.

ROLLUP: Crypto’s Nasdaq Problem | The CLARITY Act | Saylor Selling? | ETH L1 Scaling

The teeth behind this

Bankless
ROLLUP: Crypto’s Nasdaq Problem | The CLARITY Act | Saylor Selling? | ETH L1 Scaling

And I think they will do this.

Bankless
ROLLUP: Crypto’s Nasdaq Problem | The CLARITY Act | Saylor Selling? | ETH L1 Scaling

They will give Bitcoin, maybe some other crypto assets, a reserve asset designation.

So that puts it in kind of the class on the Fed balance sheet alongside gold, alongside other fiat currencies that they might hold and SDRs.

Bankless
ROLLUP: Crypto’s Nasdaq Problem | The CLARITY Act | Saylor Selling? | ETH L1 Scaling

So I think that's what they're really going to do.

Bankless
ROLLUP: Crypto’s Nasdaq Problem | The CLARITY Act | Saylor Selling? | ETH L1 Scaling

And the U.S.

Bankless
ROLLUP: Crypto’s Nasdaq Problem | The CLARITY Act | Saylor Selling? | ETH L1 Scaling

government does have about 300,000 to 328,000 Bitcoin assets.

Although a chunk of this is court bound, is tied up in courts, is victims have claim over it.

Bankless
ROLLUP: Crypto’s Nasdaq Problem | The CLARITY Act | Saylor Selling? | ETH L1 Scaling

That's right.

So the Fort Knox pile, the part they would put in the strategic Bitcoin reserves, probably like closer to like 150 to 200K Bitcoin.

Bankless
ROLLUP: Crypto’s Nasdaq Problem | The CLARITY Act | Saylor Selling? | ETH L1 Scaling

That's what I think they're going to roll out.

Bankless
ROLLUP: Crypto’s Nasdaq Problem | The CLARITY Act | Saylor Selling? | ETH L1 Scaling

And that is, in my opinion, very bullish.

Bankless
ROLLUP: Crypto’s Nasdaq Problem | The CLARITY Act | Saylor Selling? | ETH L1 Scaling

Now, it might not be as bullish.

Bankless
ROLLUP: Crypto’s Nasdaq Problem | The CLARITY Act | Saylor Selling? | ETH L1 Scaling

Yeah.

Bankless
ROLLUP: Crypto’s Nasdaq Problem | The CLARITY Act | Saylor Selling? | ETH L1 Scaling

Bankless
ROLLUP: Crypto’s Nasdaq Problem | The CLARITY Act | Saylor Selling? | ETH L1 Scaling

Thumbs up.
