FBS Explores the US Bitcoin Reserve and Its Market Implications
SINGAPORE, March 31, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- FBS, a leading global broker, has released a new analysis examining the impact of the US government's decision to establish a Strategic Bitcoin Reserve. This move, announced by President Donald Trump in March 2025, officially recognizes Bitcoin as a reserve asset and signals a shift in financial strategy. The FBS analysis explores market reactions, historical parallels, and the potential geopolitical implications of this development.
FBS analysts note that the market reaction was swift. Following the announcement, Bitcoin surged over 10%, briefly surpassing $94 000, while Ethereum gained 13% to exceed $2500. The global crypto market cap expanded by $300 billion, reflecting renewed investor confidence. However, upon confirmation that no additional BTC purchases were planned, Bitcoin later dipped 5% to $85 000. The market stabilized, with Bitcoin recovering to $89 000 by the next trading session.
FBS analysts draw parallels between the U.S. Bitcoin Reserve and past catalysts, such as ETF approvals and Bitcoin halvings, which have historically driven long-term price growth. With the latest halving in April 2024 reducing new BTC supply, combined with government accumulation, Bitcoin's upward trajectory remains intact. Projections estimate Bitcoin could reach $125 000 – $200 000 by late 2025, supported by institutional adoption and evolving US policies.
The US move is expected to influence global financial strategies, prompting discussions on whether other nations will adopt similar reserves. Japan, the European Union, and Middle Eastern sovereign wealth funds may reassess their crypto stance, while geopolitical rivals such as China and Russia may seek alternative strategies. Institutional investors and hedge funds are also expected to accelerate their Bitcoin allocations in response to its growing legitimacy.
Looking ahead
FBS analysts highlight that while short-term volatility may persist, the US Bitcoin Reserve represents a significant milestone in digital finance. As regulatory clarity improves and institutional demand rises, Bitcoin's role as a global asset is further cemented.
