President Donald Trump announced the creation of a strategic U.S. bitcoin reserve on Truth Social, sparking speculation about its likelihood within the first 100 days of his presidency. Polymarket traders currently give it a 23% chance of happening by April 30th, 2025. The U.S. government will need to specifically hold bitcoin by April 29th for the bet to resolve as a yes. The announcement initially mentioned only XRP and SOL as reserve components, causing their value to rise before clarifying that BTC and ETH would also be included. Traders, including Theo5, are profiting or losing substantial amounts based on their positions.
