Trump's crypto adviser just teased a big bitcoin reserve announcement. The reserve still holds zero newly purchased coins after 15 months. What exactly is the announcement?

White house crypto adviser patrick witt said at bitcoin 2026 in las vegas that in the next few weeks, we will be making a big announcement about the us strategic bitcoin reserve, confirming his team has been working on plans and legal interpretations to expand it. So the strategic reserve currently holds only coins seized from criminals ,zero bitcoin has been purchased with budget neutral funds since trump signed the executive order in march 2025. Over a year later its still just a rebranded seizure wallet and meanwhile trump media is sitting on a reported $455 million paper loss on bitcoin, trump's confirmed crypto exposure covers a personal ethereum wallet, world liberty financial, two meme coins and a corporate bitcoin treasury through trump media meaning any government bitcoin purchase announcement directly benefits the sitting president's personal financial position. Every big announcement tease for 15 months has delivered a seized coin recount dressed up as a reserve so either the next few weeks produce actual government purchases or this is the longest tease in crypto political history. via /r/CryptoBrief https://ift.tt/ioswZKd
