The US announced on March 2 that it will be holding a strategic national supply of various cryptocurrencies, including Bitcoin, Ethereum, XRP, Solana, and Cardano. However, the known cryptocurrency wallets have not seen significant changes in holdings yet. The government's holdings of Ethereum did increase by 1,300 tokens. The market had a positive reaction to the news, with cryptocurrencies adding over $220 billion to their cumulative valuation. Individual digital assets like Bitcoin and XRP also experienced significant price increases. However, the future could still bring corrections and there is a debate about whether including digital assets other than Bitcoin in the reserve is a mistake.
