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.

Argentinian President Milae Accused of Profiting $5 Million Through Promoting the LIBRA Token

On March 15, Argentine outlet El Destape reported that forensic experts have uncovered an unpublicized document from intermediary Mauricio Novelli’s phone detailing a $5 million payment agreement tied to the Libra token scam—with funds primarily targeting Argentine President Milae. The document outlines a three-part plan: - A $1.5 million advance (in tokens or cash); - A second $1.5 million installment, contingent on Milae tweeting that Hayden Davis (CEO of Kelsier Ventures) is her advisor; - A final $2 million payment, contingent on Milae and her sister Karina signing an in-person contract for blockchain/AI government consulting. Dated February 11, 2025, the document was created just three days before Milae’s related tweets and the launch of the Libra token. Call logs have also raised eyebrows: Forensic reports show Milae had multiple calls with Novelli minutes before and after the tweet, plus frequent contact with Karina. After the token’s price crashed that evening, M

Bitwise CIO: If Bitcoin Captures Part of Gold and Sovereign Debt's Value Storage Market, It Could Reach $1 Million

March 15 Per CoinDesk, Bitwise Chief Investment Officer Matt Hougan reaffirmed his $1 million Bitcoin price target this week. In a new report, he noted Bitcoin’s long-term upside hinges on the market share it can grab in the global store-of-value market. Hougan said the global store-of-value market (including gold, government bonds and other defensive assets) has grown from roughly $2.5 trillion in 2004 to nearly $40 trillion today, with Bitcoin holding just ~4% of that market currently. Under current conditions, if Bitcoin could capture roughly half of that market, its price could hit ~$1 million in about a decade. He acknowledged: “A $1 million price sounds outlandish—it would mean Bitcoin needs to rise another 14x from its current level.” While many analysts agree with this trajectory, they differ on the timeline. Quantum Economics founder Mati Greenspan noted: “Geopolitical tensions have boosted Bitcoin’s narrative—investors are seeking neutral store-of-value assets amid un
