U.S. government holds about $20.57 billion in on-chain crypto assets: According to Onchain Lens monitoring on November 15, the U.S. government holds about 306,790 $BTC and about 17,430 $ETH , with total crypto assets valued at approximately $20.57 billion. Arkham data shows that these assets are distributed across 623 labeled addresses, including about 306,795 Bitcoin worth approximately $20.48 billion, making it the seventh-largest Bitcoin holder among entities tracked by Arkham. These assets mainly come from seizures in cases such as Silk Road, as well as the recovery of more than 94,000 Bitcoin from the 2016 Bitfinex hack. On March 6, 2025, Trump signed an executive order establishing a Strategic Bitcoin Reserve, stipulating that Bitcoin obtained through seizures be held long term and not sold; to date, no reserve Bitcoin has been confirmed as sold.
