The American senator friendly with the cryptographic, Cynthia Lummis, has confirmed that the acquisition of funds for the strategic reserve of Bitcoin (SBR) of the USA. UU. It can “begin at any time”, although the legislative bureaucracy is retaining it.
In a position X on Monday, Lummis said that although it is still a “work” on the legislative side of things, thanks to the “President Trump, the acquisition of funds for an SBR can begin at any time.”
Lummis made the comments in response to a publication by ProCap BTC’s investment director, Jeff Park, who shared a video of him and Bitcoin Bull Anthony Pompliano discussing the potential of the SBR.
Park was raising the hypothesis of what would happen if the government could use its paper earnings of $ 1 billion of gold to reinvest in Bitcoin (BTC).
He argued that, given that the approximately $ 37.88 billion in fiscal debt, using the $ 1 billion in paper profits would be a relatively lower risk in the great scheme of things.
“And so, if there is a way to unlock the ability to generate leverage in gold paper profits to take a purchase option in Bitcoin. Here there is something incredible that could happen … if you have Bitcoin, and assumes that it will rise 12% a year, it will win a 30x in 30 years,” he said.
“You can actually cover most of the fiscal deficit hole that exists.”
In response, Lummis declared that this was “a fabulous articulation of why the SBR and the passage of Bitcoin’s law makes so much sense.”

It is still not clear exactly how capital will rise for the SBR. According to the Official Information Sheet of the Government, the reservation “will be” capitalized by Bitcoin owned by the Treasury Department “which was seized through civil or criminal procedures.
Then it establishes that additional BTC can be acquired through neutral roads with budget that “do not impose incremental costs to US taxpayers.”
Bitcoin of the government buys around the corner?
Seven months have passed since President Donald J. Trump signed an executive order to establish the SBR. However, the concrete formulation of the reserve has not yet been confirmed, resulting in a good amount of speculation and debate on the exact launch timeline.
Some, however, anticipate that the government can announce some BTC purchases in the near future. Talking to CNBC during the weekend, Anthony Pompliano said that there are three key things that the market is watching at this time:
“The first is that the United States government at some point will announce that they are buying Bitcoin. Creating the initial initial reserve and sitting the bitcoin that we already had there was good. But that is not the main dish.”
“The main course is when they start buying, and I think that will happen at some point.”
