Lummis Revives Bitcoin Reserve Bill
Lastly, Senator Cynthia Lummis reintroduced a Bitcoin bill. The proposal aims to establish a US Strategic Bitcoin Reserve.
This bill will legislate the Trump administration's executive order and officially integrate Bitcoin into national reserves.

From state government adoption to institutional integration, Bitcoin 2025 showed that the asset is entering a new stage where it is defined as a strategy, not speculation.
