The US Treasury Department Meets with Three Crypto Companies to Discuss Bitcoin Reserve Custody Solution

2025.03.14 02:00:21

On March 14th, as per Decrypt's report, insiders disclosed that the U.S. Treasury Department held meetings with executives from three cryptocurrency custody companies this week to discuss ways to safeguard the nation's strategic Bitcoin reserve. Anchorage Digital is one of the institutions participating in the meeting. Nathan McCauley, the CEO of Anchorage, stated that Treasury Department officials made in-depth inquiries about best practices for the national Bitcoin reserve and digital asset custody and discussed how custody impacts stablecoins and market structure. Congressional sources indicated that the Treasury Department is currently in a research stage and has not yet formulated a clear position but is actively seeking input from industry experts. There is currently a preference for government Bitcoin reserves to be held by third-party institutions, with the long-term goal being for the government to eventually achieve self-custody. Regarding various types of seized digital assets controlled by the government, long-term reliance on third-party custody may still be necessary. The U.S. Treasury Department has not made any comments on this.

According to official announcements, the LimeWire team has officially taken over Cookie3 and Cookie Pro, with all relevant business handover work now completed. Cookie Pro will continue operating as normal, with existing features including Cookie AI, KOL analytics, data dashboards, farm points, and market signals remaining unaffected. Moving forward, the LimeWire team will leverage its strengths in engineering, blockchain infrastructure, and resources to support Cookie’s product upgrades while ensuring the smooth operation of existing services. The partnership will also bring stronger data infrastructure support to Cookie. LimeWire noted that its infrastructure built for large-scale data storage will power Cookie. At the same time, the two sides have officially kicked off development of InfoFi 2.0, planning to rebuild the product from scratch rather than simply upgrading the existing version. This rebuild will focus on upgrading the AI engine powering Cookie Pro, enhancing its ability to identify trends in Crypto Twitter (CT) discussions, market attention, and influence signals, reducing irrelevant information, and improving the quality of data analysis. In addition, InfoFi 2.0 will redesign the SmartKOL allocation mechanism to prioritize users’ actual contributions to the ecosystem over rewarding mere mechanistic actions; it will also adjust the incentive economic model to increase returns for genuine contributors and boost the system’s long-term sustainability. Cookie stated that it will gradually release development progress and more details in the coming period. Currently, Cookie Pro will continue to iterate, and InfoFi 2.0 has been re-included in the official development roadmap.
