The recent slowdown in Bitcoin ETF selling isn’t driven by Trump’s crypto reserve plan but rather shifting market dynamics. Spot Bitcoin exchange-traded funds saw their largest outflows since launching in January 2024. For now, the selling pressure may be easing, though not necessarily due to President Donald Trump‘s statement on a strategic crypto reserve, but seemingly because hedge funds unwound basis trades, analysts at Matrixport suggest. In an X post on March 3, the analysts suggested that hedge funds likely triggered the sell-off by unwinding basis trades, which aligns with the $8 billion drop in CME open interest since the December 2024 FOMC meeting, accounting for over 20% of total ETF inflows.

VanEck research reveals if Strategic Bitcoin Reserve can pay off US debt by 2049 On Feb. 21, 2025, an investment management company VanEck released a tool indicating the potential impact of Strategic Bitcoin Reserve on U.S. debt at the specified conditions. It allows the government to set the number of bitcoins purchased by the government annually, the average price at which bitcoins are being bought in 2025, and the average compound growth rate of the BTC price and U.S. debt. The calculator tool is based on VanEck research outlining how soon the debt may be offset by the BTC reserve at the set parameters, such as the BTC price, etc. It’s worth noting that the research assumes that the Bitcoin Act introduced by Lummis is getting adopted this year without serious changes.

While quantum computing poses a threat to Bitcoin’s security, banks have multiple defenses in place to prevent a widespread collapse, River’s Leishman says. The debate over whether quantum computers could threaten Bitcoin is heating up once again, with River CEO Alexander Leishman arguing that Bitcoin is at greater risk than traditional banking systems. In an X post on Feb. 21, Leishman explained that in case with Bitcoin, the security of funds depends entirely on the private key. Once a public key is exposed, a quantum computer could access the funds with ease.

While Binance sees a “fresh reset” in the U.S., it is waiting for more clarity before making any decisions on its next steps there, the exchange’s CEO says. Binance is taking its time with the U.S. market, with CEO Richard Teng saying the company is waiting for more clarity before making any big moves, even though the space has become more crypto-friendly under President Donald Trump. In an interview with Bloomberg, Binance chief executive Richard Teng said that he sees things differently from a regulatory angle, pointing out the shift from the more hawkish stance under the Biden administration. During that time, U.S. regulators filed lawsuits against multiple crypto businesses like Coinbase, and Binance itself.
