Senator Lummis Revives Strategic Bitcoin Reserve Hype with Cryptic Post

U.S. Senator Cynthia Lummis posted a Bitcoin-themed image on X with the caption “₿ig things coming for Franklin!”, sparking fresh discussion about possible U.S. government Bitcoin purchases. In November, Lummis proposed a Strategic Bitcoin Reserve to help offset national debt, advocating for the acquisition of up to 1 million BTC. This mirrors President Trump’s March executive order establishing a Bitcoin reserve framework. While no official purchases have been confirmed, the timing and content of Lummis’ post are interpreted by some as further policy signaling. Bitcoin traded at $93,381 at the time of her post.
