Polymarket users, the popular online predictive market platform, only see a 16% probability that the new president of the United States, Donald Trump, implements the promised Bitcoin strategic reserve during the first 100 days of his mandate.
It should be remembered that this initiative was one of Trump’s most prominent commitments during his presidential campaign. Although it is already installed in the White House and has fulfilled promises such as the release of Ross Ulbricht, many bitcoiners They are not optimistic Regarding the possibility that the Treasury is soon implemented. This, despite the fact that David Sacks, the “Tsar of AI and cryptocurrencies” designated by Trump, says the issue is on the agenda.
In a recent one interview With Fox News, Sacks revealed that President Trump has already asked him for his team to carry out a study on the project. In his own words: «President Trump has requested us to investigate the issue, so we are not yet ready to comment. However, it is one of the issues that our group will address ». It should be noted that Sacks, who leads the Cryptocurrency Advisory Council of the White House, mentioned a few days ago that a new regulatory era in the United States is coming, where investors will have clear rules.
Since Senator Cynthia Lummis presented her proposal to create a Bitcoin -based treasury, the issue has gained relevance and has expanded rapidly. Various locations in the US have already presented their own initiatives with the aim of strengthening their finances. A recent example is Arizona, where congressmen Wendy Rogers and Jeff Weninger promoted a project that suggests invest up to 10% of the public funds of the State, including those of retirement systems and the state treasurer, in the leading cryptocurrency.
Recently, Donald Trump signed an executive order to include cryptoactives in the country’s reserves. The measure establishes the creation of the Advisory Council led by Sacks, and prohibits agencies both inside and outside the country to create digital currencies of Central Bank (CBDC).
Some recognized figures within the industry have been skeptical about the president’s ability to implement the treasury, and thus completely honor what was sold as a new era of innovation in the United States. Recently, Arthur Hayes, Investment Director of Maelstrom, said that, although he hopes to be wrong, he does not see how Trump could carry out this initiative.
