Can the US Bitcoin reserve bill survive Congress with 6% odds?

U.S House Financial Services Committee is set to hear and markup the Bitcoin reserve bill that was introduced back in May

  • A U.S. bill to formalize a strategic Bitcoin reserve (H.R. 8957) is facing a low probability of passage through Congress due to a tight legislative calendar.
  • The bill proposes holding BTC for 20 years and using future sales to offset national debt, while the U.S. government currently holds a significant amount of seized Bitcoin.
  • Despite other nations like the UAE viewing Bitcoin as digital gold, the bill's chances of becoming law in 2026 are estimated at around 6%.
