🗣U.S. Legal Experts Criticize Trump's Bitcoin Reserve Plan

Legal experts in the U.S. have criticized Donald Trump’s proposal to create a national Bitcoin reserve from seized crypto assets. Former federal prosecutor Amanda Wick voiced concerns about prioritizing Bitcoin accumulation over compensating victims of cybercrime.

Elizabeth Boison, also a former prosecutor, argued that the plan contradicts asset forfeiture laws, which require seized assets to be sold and proceeds used for victim compensation or law enforcement support. Critics suggest Trump's stance on Bitcoin may be a tactic to attract votes from those dissatisfied with the current administration.
