MARA Holdings has unveiled plans to promote the Strategic Bitcoin Reserve (SBR) across all 50 U.S. states and at the federal level.
CEO Fred Thiel emphasized the company’s focus on integrating Bitcoin into national financial strategies, while Senior VP Jayson Browder highlighted ongoing collaboration with the Trump administration to advance the initiative. The company also continues to support Bitcoin advocacy groups to bolster its efforts.
Legislation for SBR has already been introduced in 11 states, including Florida and Wyoming, reflecting growing interest in making Bitcoin a key part of state financial policies.
Industry leaders, such as Coinbase CEO Brian Armstrong, have backed the concept, arguing that Bitcoin should be considered a reserve asset alongside gold. Armstrong believes this move could inspire other G20 nations to adopt similar strategies.
Bitcoin’s price has also shown positive momentum, climbing 3% in the last 24 hours to $105,681. Open Interest has increased nearly 4%, signaling growing market confidence. MARA Holdings’ initiative, coupled with strong support from influential figures, is shaping the narrative of Bitcoin as a strategic reserve asset in the U.S. financial landscape.
After weeks of intense institutional activity that helped push Bitcoin above $100,000, inflows into U.S. spot Bitcoin ETFs took a breather between May 6 and May 12.
Bitcoin’s rapid recovery beyond $104,000 has sparked a wave of optimism in crypto circles, but the bigger question remains: is this just the beginning?
While Bitcoin’s price has recently rebounded, the enthusiasm for spot ETFs appears to be cooling. Weekly inflows into U.S. Bitcoin ETFs have dropped sharply, signaling a pause in aggressive institutional accumulation.
A wave of optimism swept through global markets as the United States and China took decisive steps to de-escalate their long-running trade dispute.
