Bitcoin Holds Firm at $118,000 as Trump’s Crypto Report Nears Release
By Oscar Zarraga Perez | July 29, 2025
Bitcoin is maintaining a steady price around $118,000 as anticipation builds for a major crypto policy report from the Trump administration set to be released tomorrow. This highly anticipated document, the first comprehensive digital assets report under President Trump, is expected to signal a historic shift in U.S. federal support for Bitcoin and blockchain technologies.
White House Poised to Propose Strategic Bitcoin Reserve
The forthcoming report is the culmination of months of effort led by the President’s Working Group on Digital Assets, chaired by David Sacks and Bo Hines. Insider sources, including Crypto In America’s Eleanor Terrett, formerly of Fox Business, indicate the report may propose the creation of a strategic Bitcoin reserve, providing further details on the national digital asset stockpile. It is also expected to offer greater regulatory clarity while outlining national security strategies aimed at preventing illicit financial activities and sanctions evasion.
The Working Group completed its 180-day review and will publicly release the report on July 30th. Bo Hines remarked via social media, “America is now leading the way on digital asset policy,” emphasizing the country’s emerging leadership role in the crypto sector.
Legislative Momentum Boosts Bitcoin Adoption
Bitcoin’s price surge of 26% this year has been fueled by growing institutional interest and progressive federal legislation. A landmark development was President Trump’s recent signing of the GENIUS Act, which established a robust regulatory framework for stablecoins. This was complemented by the House passing the CLARITY Act and the Anti-CBDC Surveillance State Act. These legislative moves demonstrate a clear resistance to government-controlled digital currencies and a pronounced preference for decentralized assets like Bitcoin.
Furthermore, Congress remains active on related fronts. The Senate Banking Committee is expected to unveil a draft of market structure reforms within the week. Meanwhile, the Senate Agriculture Committee is voting on the nomination of Brian Quintenz to lead the Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC), a key regulatory body overseeing Bitcoin markets. Approval of Quintenz, known for his pro-Bitcoin stance, could shift future regulatory oversight favorably toward digital assets.
Institutional Confidence and Market Validation
Institutional involvement continues to affirm Bitcoin’s significance within global finance. The BlackRock Investment Institute recently hailed 2025 as a banner year for Bitcoin, highlighting the U.S. as becoming the “bitcoin and crypto capital of the world.” The report also spotlighted stablecoins, whose combined market capitalization has reached $250 billion, underscoring the mainstream acceptance of blockchain-based assets and growing investor confidence in digital financial products.
As BlackRock, one of the world’s largest asset managers with $12.5 trillion under management, praises Bitcoin’s performance and the evolving regulatory landscape, market analysts suggest current price stability might precede a larger upward movement.
Looking Ahead
With federal attention focused acutely on digital assets and regulatory frameworks evolving rapidly, Bitcoin’s steady $118,000 level may mark the beginning of a new phase for the cryptocurrency and the U.S. crypto economy at large. The Trump administration’s upcoming report could cement America’s position at the forefront of digital asset innovation and policy leadership.
