His comments<\/a> <\/strong>come amid speculation about the U.S. expanding its Strategic Bitcoin<\/a> <\/strong>Reserve without increasing taxpayer costs. Park argues that politicians, especially the President, are cautious about buying at high prices due to the reputational risks associated with market downturns.<\/p>\n With the U.S. already controlling around 200,000 BTC, valued at $17 billion, mostly seized through asset forfeitures, Park believes political figures are more inclined to wait for a better entry point.<\/p>\n The reserve cannot sell these assets but is tasked with finding “budget-neutral” ways to acquire more. Park highlights that public pension managers can invest in Bitcoin with more flexibility, contrasting with the risk-averse nature of public officials facing short-term political scrutiny.<\/p>\n
