Congress Moves to Lock In Trumpโs Bitcoin Reserve Order ๐
๐ A new bill is set to hit the U.S. Congress, aiming to solidify Trumpโs strategic Bitcoin reserve and digital asset fund, preventing future administrations from reversing it. The initiative, led by Rep. Byron Donalds, is part of the GOPโs push to end what they call the Democratsโ war on crypto. ๐ง
Trumpโs March 6 order transfers 200,000 BTC to the Treasury, bans their sale, and ensures the fund grows without taxpayer costs. If passed, this law could reshape cryptoโs role in U.S. policy for years to come. ๐๐ฅ

โ๏ธ A US bankruptcy court has allowed the liquidators of the defunct hedge fund Three Arrows Capital (3AC) to increase their claim against the collapsed crypto exchange FTX from $120 million to $1.53 billion. ๐ฐ
The liquidators initially filed the claim in June 2023, citing breach of contract and fiduciary duty, after discovering FTX held 3AC assets that were liquidated to settle $1.33 billion in liabilities in 2022. ๐
FTX had delayed sharing relevant documents, causing delays in the claim process.
Despite objections, the court ruled in favor of the liquidators, noting FTXโs failure to provide the necessary information. This move threatens FTXโs plan to compensate its users. ๐ค
