Standard Chartered analyst: US strategic Bitcoin reserves may achieve "budget neutrality" by selling gold

Geoff Kendrick, head of digital asset research at Standard Chartered Bank, proposed that the United States could purchase Bitcoin by selling part of its $760 billion gold reserves as a "budget-neutral" source of funds for a newly established Strategic Bitcoin Reserve (SBR). This proposal comes shortly after President Trump signed an executive order requiring the government to acquire Bitcoin without increasing the burden on American taxpayers.
