Bessent projects that stablecoins could drive roughly $2 trillion in demand for U.S. Treasuries in the near future—a significant jump from the current $300 billion. This signals a potential game-changer for both the crypto ecosystem and government financing.

Strategic Crypto Reserve & Asset Policy

Bessent’s agenda isn’t limited to stablecoins. The strategy also includes the establishment of a Strategic Bitcoin Reserve, using forfeited assets to bolster the Treasury’s digital holdings and exploring ways to acquire even more crypto assets through taxpayer-neutral methods
