🚨 US Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth confirms multiple classified Bitcoin and crypto projects are moving forward inside the Pentagon, after he'd earlier agreed the US should seek a "strategic advantage" in Bitcoin.

Specific details remain undisclosed, but it builds on comments Hegseth made earlier this year, when he called himself a "long enthusiast of Bitcoin" and confirmed the Pentagon runs classified efforts both enabling and countering the technology, tied to broader competition with China and Russia.

This keeps Bitcoin firmly in the national security conversation, right as Washington's crypto policy fight plays out on other fronts too.
