Highlights of the year: The first pro-Bitcoin US administration takes office

2025 will go down in history as the year Bitcoin finally became a strategically relevant asset. In January, Donald Trump signed a clearly pro-Bitcoin executive order immediately after taking office. Bitcoin was positioned as strategically important, while a US CBDC was explicitly ruled out. The end of years of uncertainty triggered the so-called "Trump trade."

The next milestone followed on March 6, 2025: the establishment of a Strategic Bitcoin Reserve. Bitcoin officially became part of the US national asset reserves. The message to investors worldwide was clear: Bitcoin is no longer an experiment, but an asset that countries hold for the long term.
