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.

The US Military to Block Iranian Port Maritime Traffic at 10 p.m. on the 13th

U.S. Central Command (CENTCOM) announced Wednesday that it will impose a maritime traffic blockade on all entry and exit points of Iranian ports starting 10 a.m. Eastern Time (10 p.m. Beijing Time) on April 13. The blockade applies to vessels of any nationality entering or exiting Iranian ports and coastal areas, including those in the Arabian Gulf and Gulf of Oman.

Additional official notifications will be issued to commercial mariners ahead of the blockade’s launch. Mariners are advised to monitor "Navigational Warnings" broadcasts and contact U.S. naval forces via VHF Channel 16 when operating in the Gulf of Oman or the entrance area of the Strait of Hormuz.

WSJ: Trump Weighs Limited Strike on Iran

April 13 — U.S. officials and sources familiar with the matter told the Wall Street Journal (WSJ) that former President Donald Trump and his advisors are weighing resuming limited military strikes against Iran and imposing a blockade on the Strait of Hormuz to break a deadlock in ongoing peace talks. Officials noted Trump may also consider restarting full-scale bombing operations, but the likelihood is low: such moves would further destabilize the region, and Trump himself is reluctant to get drawn into a long-term military conflict. U.S. officials and government insiders added that whichever option Trump chooses carries significant risks. A full-scale war would deplete critical U.S. ammunition reserves and expose Trump to backlash from voters skeptical of Middle East military entanglements. Conversely, scaling back military action — even if the Iranian regime is weakened but remains intact, continues its nuclear program, and maintains control over the Strait of Hormuz — could be
