  • A bill requiring the US government to hold confiscated Bitcoin long term as a strategic asset has passed the House Financial Services Committee.
  • The American Reserve Modernization Act, or H.R. 8957, would require the Treasury Department to hold acquired Bitcoin for at least 20 years as a strategic reserve asset instead of selling it.
  • The committee vote marks a step forward for efforts to legislate a strategic Bitcoin reserve, and H.R. 8957 will next go to the full House for consideration.

Forecast Trend Report by Period

A bill that would require the US government to hold confiscated Bitcoin long term as a strategic asset has passed the House Financial Services Committee.

Cointelegraph reported on Sept. 16 that the committee approved the American Reserve Modernization Act, or H.R. 8957, by a 28-21 vote.

The bill would require the Treasury Department to hold Bitcoin obtained through criminal and civil forfeiture proceedings for at least 20 years as a strategic reserve asset instead of selling it.

The committee vote marks a step forward in efforts to codify a strategic Bitcoin reserve. H.R. 8957 will next go to the full House for consideration.

Why this matters

The measure could materially change how the US Treasury manages Bitcoin obtained through criminal and civil forfeitures, replacing potential sales with long-term retention. Its committee approval signals growing institutional support for putting a federal Bitcoin reserve policy into law, though it still requires consideration by the full House.
