Trump Invests in Bitcoin Proxy Strategy Amid Crypto Regulatory Crossroads
President Donald Trump purchased between $50,001 and $100,000 worth of stock in Strategy, a U.S. software company that holds massive amounts of bitcoin, in late July.
The transactions were reported to the U.S. Office of Government Ethics (OGE) on September 22, as part of a periodic transaction report.
Strategy is known for being the world's largest publicly traded corporate holder of bitcoin, with approximately 846,000 BTC according to data from Bitcoin Treasuries Network.
The stock purchase coincides with ongoing debates in Congress over crypto regulation, including the recent failure of the CLARITY Act, which would have established a comprehensive regulatory framework for crypto markets.
