JUST IN: Congressman Warren Davidson says the US can fund its Bitcoin Reserve by accepting taxes in BTC.

Also known as "Dread Pirate Roberts", Ulbricht founded the illegal online black market website Silk Road. This is another giveaway to the crypto crowd.
Operation Chokepoint 2.0 regrettably lives on.
Policies like JP Morgan’s undermine confidence in traditional banks and send the digital asset industry overseas.
It’s past time we put Operation Chokepoint 2.0 to rest to make America the digital asset capital of the world.
Crypto innovation shouldn’t be crushed by unclear rules.
That’s why I backed the CLARITY Act and its fix to protect everyday developers and blockchain users.
Encouraged to see Chairman Scott preparing a vote in the Senate.
THE U.S. IS BUILDING A ‘FORT KNOX’ FOR BITCOIN
For years, federal agencies were seizing digital assets… and then literally losing track of the private keys. Imagine confiscating a pile of cash and then misplacing the vault combo.
That’s the problem Trump’s executive order tried to fix -- by creating a strategic #Bitcoin reserve under the U.S. Treasury. One place. One custodian. One set of controls.
Now Congressman Warren Davidson is introducing a bill to codify that move into law.
Here’s the big twist:
· All seized Bitcoin gets stored in a single, organized reserve
· Bitcoin is treated differently from other crypto -- it’s the asset they want to keep
· Other tokens? They can be sold off to buy more $BTC
· And soon, you could pay your taxes in Bitcoin directly into this reserve, without triggering capital gains
Davidson points out he came into office when Bitcoin was around $500–$600. Today, it’s tens of thousands.
That appreciation is exactly why they see BTC as a long-term strategic asset.
The question now: does a U.S. Bitcoin reserve become part of America’s financial backbone… or is this just the opening chapter?
MASSIVE BREAKING: A NEW STRATEGIC #BITCOIN RESERVE BILL WAS JUST INTRODUCED IN CONGRESS
BILL WILL ALLOW TAXES TO BE PAID IN BTC EXEMPT FROM CAPITAL GAINS
THIS IS ABSOLUTELY GAME CHANGING

@WatcherGuru The Bitcoin for America Act:
+ Codifies the Strategic Bitcoin Reserve EO
+ Exempts Bitcoin payments of tax liabilities from capital gains
+ Holds Bitcoin tax payments in the Strategic Bitcoin Reserve
+ Tax payments could then be saved rather than spent
I’m introducing the Bitcoin for America Act to strengthen long-term national financial resilience and position the U.S. at the forefront of global asset leadership!
This marks an important step forward in embracing the innovation that millions of Americans use every day.

Sound money is essential to defending freedom.
Emerging markets such as crypto derivatives and event contracts have grown in size, and Congress – including this committee – is actively working on granting the CFTC authority to regulate the spot digital commodity markets.
Our crypto market structure work is about empowering the American people - including single moms like the one who raised me.
We’re aiming to markup bipartisan legislation next month and get it to President Trump’s desk to keep America economically dominant for decades.
More Americans are discovering Bitcoin mining at home and it is an exciting way for families to heat their homes while stacking sats at the same time.
But none of this works without reliable and affordable American energy. If we want people to innovate, build, and mine at home, then we need stable baseload power and an energy policy that puts our own citizens first.
Washington should focus on unlocking nuclear, cutting red tape, and restoring real energy independence. Families deserve the freedom to mine and the affordable power to do it.

I distinctly remember @WarrenDavidson and I mulling over what to call the first bipartisan crypto market structure bill in a crammed House office back in 2018. We landed on "token taxonomy act" and while that bill didn't become law, it's kinda surreal seeing the name live on.
Globalists seek to impose this on everyone. In America, the Obama and Biden Administrations debanked their political rivals, and corporate rivals to their biggest benefactors.
CBDC further corrupts money into a tool for surveillance, coercion, and control. Ban it!
I’m thrilled to welcome Coinbase to Texas.
Their decision to move underscores that the Lone Star State's pro-freedom, pro-crypto, and pro-jobs climate makes it the best place in America for innovation.
This move will create new opportunities in Texas, and I’m proud that our t the forefront of blockchain and digital asset growth.
Sound money is essential to defending freedom. CBDC corrupts money into a tool for surveillance, coercion, and control. Meanwhile, the money printers destroy our money with inflation.
To defend freedom, we must prevent money from being corrupted into a tool for surveillance, coercion, and control. Freedom surrendered is rarely reclaimed, but it is necessary.
In the USA, this is also underway - initially as a wholesale CBDC.
After discussions w/ Circle, I'm glad they now allow legal firearm purchases using its stablecoin. By aligning its terms of service w/ existing legal requirements, Circle defends constitutional rights & ensures financial systems can't be weaponized against law-abiding gun owners.
I truly believe the Strategic Bitcoin Reserve is the only solution to offset our national debt.
I applaud @POTUS and his administration for embracing the SBR, and I look forward to getting it done.
Market structure is the most important piece of digital asset legislation in United States history, and the time is now.
@SenGillibrand and I have been working on this since 2022, and our ideas are battle tested.
As Congress voted this year to pass the GENIUS Act, the immediate focus is now a crypto market-structure bill that would make sweeping changes to oversight of digital assets. @SenLummis of Wyoming speaks on "Bloomberg Crypto" bloom.bg/3LlnZdu
Wyoming leads the nation in growth of start-up companies, and digital assets are paving the way. I am proud to work every day to diversify Wyoming’s economy and ensure the future of the Cowboy State is bright.

17 years after the white paper, the Bitcoin network is still operational and more resilient than ever. Bitcoin never shuts down.
@SenateDems could learn something from that.
Silence. That's what we've heard from Congressional Republicans in response to Trump pardoning Binance founder, Changpeng Zhao, who pled guilty to money laundering, helping organizations like Hamas, Al Qaeda and ISIS finance their terrorist activities.
Now, we learn how much Trump’s crypto corruption is paying off: hundreds of millions of dollars per year, much of this from foreign sources.

Trump is pushing private equity and crypto into YOUR 401(k) – putting your retirement savings at risk.
These shadowy markets lack strong guardrails to keep your money safe.
We can’t let Wall Street gamble with Americans’ hard-earned savings.
Here's an example of how Trump's corruption factory works.
1. Coinbase put $46M into elections to help Trump allies.
2. Sends him a huge check for his inauguration.
3. Trump drops SEC lawsuit against Coinbase.
4. Trump demands big donation from Coinbase for ballroom. Done.
The "Digital Asset Market Clarity Act of 2025," or "CLARITY Act of 2025," establishes a regulatory framework for digital commodities, granting the CFTC exclusive jurisdiction over spot market transactions and related entities like exchanges, brokers, and dealers. It aims to differentiate digital commodities from securities, introduce a "mature blockchain system" concept for regulatory exemptions, and protect individual self-custody rights.
The "Blockchain Regulatory Certainty Act" (H.R. 3533) provides a safe harbor for non-controlling blockchain developers and service providers, exempting them from being classified as money transmitters or financial institutions, and thus from associated licensing and registration requirements, unless they have control over users' digital assets. This aims to prevent such entities from incurring liability for unlicensed or unregistered conduct.
The GENIUS Act of 2025 proposes a regulatory framework for payment stablecoins. It defines permitted issuers (insured depository institutions, their subsidiaries, and approved nonbank entities) and mandates 1:1 reserve backing with specific high-quality assets. The bill outlines federal and state regulatory oversight options, sets requirements for customer asset segregation, and grants stablecoin holders priority in insolvency proceedings. It also clarifies that regulated payment stablecoins are not considered securities or commodities under various acts. The bill designates issuers as financial institutions under the Bank Secrecy Act, requiring compliance with AML, KYC, and sanctions regulations to prevent illicit finance and safeguard national security. It also reinforces U.S. leadership in digital finance by supporting innovation and ensuring the dollar remains competitive in a rapidly evolving global financial landscape.
