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.

Bank of America’s chief: There are almost no short sellers left in the market, as investors have poured into the stock market, pushing their holdings to the highest level in five years.

Bank of America Chief Investment Strategist Michael Hartnett said global bullish investors have lifted their stock holdings to the highest level in nearly five years, with almost no short sellers left. BofA’s latest global fund manager survey shows a net 56% of fund managers are overweight on stocks, the highest level since November 2021. Cash allocations have fallen to an "extremely low" 3.5%. As global investors raise their stock positions, market risk appetite has clearly heated up, though this also means further upside for bullish positions may be limited. Hartnett believes current investor allocations have become crowded, and bearish forces in the market are declining. Driven by factors such as expectations of a soft economic landing, the AI investment boom, and improved liquidity outlooks, institutional investors’ willingness to allocate to risk assets continues to strengthen. At the same time, the low cash holding ratio means that once adverse factors emerge in the market, pressure to adjust investment portfolios may rise.

Dr. Wesley Wong, Chairman of the Hong Kong SFC, stated: “We sincerely thank the National Administration of Financial Regulation for its long-standing firm support for the development of Hong Kong’s capital market and the deepening of financial mutual market access between the mainland and Hong Kong. This new policy broadens diversified channels for mainland insurance funds to allocate overseas assets, demonstrates the country’s resolve to deepen high-level financial opening-up, and also reflects the central government’s support for continuous deepening of financial cooperation between the two sides. We firmly believe that the relevant arrangements will further promote the coordinated development of the two regions’ capital markets.”
