#美司法部抛售比特币 In the eyes of cryptocurrency supporters, Trump's return to the White House marks the beginning of a new golden era for crypto. Trump’s reentry into the White House comes with vows to incorporate Bitcoin into the national strategic reserve; the Deputy Attorney General issues a memo calling for a halt to the "witch hunt" against non-custodial crypto tools. However, beneath this seemingly calm surface, a covert battle over "who is the real decision-maker" is quietly erupting between the SDNY (Southern District of New York) and Washington.
Recently, a leaked asset liquidation document

#JusticeDepartmentSellsBitcoin
News of the U.S. Justice Department selling Bitcoin has once again sparked debate across the crypto market. While headlines like these often trigger short-term reactions, they also highlight how deeply Bitcoin has become integrated into global financial and legal systems.
From a market perspective, government-held Bitcoin sales are usually well-telegraphed and executed in structured ways. These transactions are rarely impulsive and are often absorbed by market liquidity over time. Historically, such sales have created temporary volatility rather than long-lastin

U.S. DOJ Bitcoin Sale: Market Signal or Administrative Footnote?
1. Why This Event Matters
The recent confirmation that the U.S. Department of Justice (DOJ) sold seized Bitcoin through Coinbase Prime has reignited a familiar debate: how government actions intersect with Bitcoin’s long-term credibility. While the transaction itself did not disrupt markets, its symbolic weight continues to attract attention from institutional and retail participants alike.
At a time when Bitcoin increasingly trades alongside macro assets, even routine government activity invites s

#JusticeDepartmentSellsBitcoin A Policy Contradiction at the Heart of America’s Bitcoin Strategy
The recent sale of Bitcoin by the U.S. Department of Justice through Coinbase Prime has reignited a complex and increasingly political debate about America’s evolving relationship with Bitcoin. What was once viewed as routine liquidation of seized criminal assets has now taken on symbolic weight, as it directly collides with the U.S. government’s stated ambition to establish a Strategic Bitcoin Reserve (SBR). In a market where narratives increasingly matter as much as liquidity, these sales are bei

#JusticeDepartmentSellsBitcoin A Silent Power Struggle Behind America’s Bitcoin Strategy
For many cryptocurrency supporters, Donald Trump’s return to the White House signaled the beginning of a new pro-crypto era. His administration openly discussed incorporating Bitcoin into a national strategic reserve, while senior Justice Department officials issued guidance to halt what they described as a regulatory “witch hunt” against non-custodial crypto tools. On the surface, the message seemed clear: the U.S. government was shifting from hostility to cautious adoption. Yet beneath this calm narrativ

#JusticeDepartmentSellsBitcoin
The recent sale of Bitcoin by the U.S. Department of Justice (DOJ) via Coinbase Prime has become a focal point of intense debate, as it directly intersects with the shifting U.S. policy toward a Strategic Bitcoin Reserve (SBR).
While these sales are often framed as routine liquidations of assets seized from criminal activity (such as the Silk Road or Samourai Wallet cases), they now carry significant political and symbolic weight.
A Shift in Policy Under the current administration, an Executive Order (EO 14233) was signed in early 2025 to establish a Strategic

Policy Signals vs Institutional Reality
As 2026 begins, the Bitcoin debate inside the United States has moved beyond adoption narratives and into a more complex question: who actually governs Bitcoin policy within the state apparatus. While executive-level messaging increasingly frames Bitcoin as a legitimate strategic asset, recent actions by enforcement agencies suggest that internal consensus remains elusive.
That disconnect surfaced when seized Bitcoin from a federal criminal case was liquidated rather than preserved. The transaction executed through the U.S
