Several popular cryptocurrencies today are worth paying attention to. PEPE, XRP, ETH, and others are all in the market spotlight.

According to the latest news, the U.S. Department of Justice officially confirmed an important piece of information: the Bitcoin seized in the Samourai wallet has not been sold. The Executive Director of the government’s Digital Asset Advisory Committee further revealed that these Bitcoin assets will be retained on the federal balance sheet as an important part of the national-level strategic Bitcoin reserve.

What signals does this decision send? To some extent, it reflects the government’s recognition of Bitcoin’s asset value—incorporating it into long-term strategic reserves rather than rushing to liquidate. For those paying attention to BTC and the entire crypto market, the policy direction behind this message is worth pondering.

PEPE-3.65%

XRP-1.3%

ETH0.27%

BTC-0.66%

Damn, is the US government hoarding Bitcoin? Are they trying to compete with us for the chips? The government has started playing the long game, while we're still cutting losses in the short term. Truly ironic. How's the situation with PEPE? Have any brothers seen any insider information? Bitcoin being included in the strategic reserves sounds like Bitcoin has really turned around. This is great news—official endorsement and support. The institutions should be celebrating now. Will XRP benefit from this wave? I'm thinking about trying to buy the dip. The US's move is clever, essentially giving the entire crypto circle a boost of confidence. But on the other hand, can retail investors really benefit from this? With such favorable policy support, why is the market still so weak? Has anyone analyzed the upcoming trend? DYOR, but still follow the big influencers.

Wow, the US government has started hoarding BTC? We're really lucky as retail investors now, haha. If the government isn't selling, it means they are optimistic in the long term. This buy signal couldn't be more obvious. How will PEPE and XRP move today? Any big shots to take a look? Can I still buy the dip with what I have? The US is already holding it as national reserves, what are we still hesitating for? Let's buy, everyone. This is amazing, the government officially backing it, retail investors have hope again, hahaha.

The government has hoarded coins, so now the US is also going to be a whale.

Wow, the US government actually treating BTC as strategic reserves? This is a complete turnaround. I'm relieved that the government is accumulating coins, it shows that BTC is truly recognized. Can PEPE make a surge this time? Seems unrelated to this news. Those who keep saying "the government will dump" should shut up now, right? But on the other hand, why is the official gradually increasing their holdings while retail investors are still panicking? Typical.
