Tony Dicarlo, director of institutional operations at RootstockLabs writes in an email to CoinDesk that on a legislative level, " SEC increased support for digital asset without congressional action".

He added: "Last week, Senate Bill United States on Reserve Modernization was cleared by the committee to reignite discussion of Strategic Reserves Bitcoin , which is the furthest such bill has advanced in Congress so far, but still requires a unanimous vote in both the House and Senate".

The bill proposes to transfer approximately 325,000 Bitcoin s currently held by the United States government (most of which are from criminal and civil forfeiture proceedings) into a strategic reserve under the Treasury Department, called Bitcoin , that will be held for at least 20 years, with an audited certificate of reserves issued quarterly confirming that token is still in storage.

The bill also calls for the study of feasible options to continue with Bitcoin without increasing fiscal deficits.
