A proposed 2025 bill suggests using gold profits to purchase Bitcoin, signaling a major shift in U.S. crypto strategy.

White House adviser Bo Hines has floated a bold new strategy: the U.S. might start buying Bitcoin using profits from its gold reserves. This plan could lead to the purchase of up to 1 million BTC over five years.

The move is tied to the upcoming Bitcoin Act of 2025, which proposes to:

Designate Bitcoin as a strategic U.S. asset.
Keep spending budget-neutral by selling Federal Reserve gold certificates.
Demonstrate strong U.S. commitment to digital assets.

Former President Donald Trump is reportedly backing the idea, aiming to position the U.S. as a global leader in crypto adoption through real action, not just words. If passed, this could dramatically reduce BTC supply and fuel historic market momentum.
