Renowned investor Cathie Wood recently put forward a bold hypothesis: that the US government in the future will not only auction off confiscated digital assets but may also learn from El Salvador's approach and officially include Bitcoin in the national strategic reserves.

This statement actually reflects the market's sensitive response to policy trends. Although there are no substantial actions to support this yet, such voices are enough to shake the confidence of long-term holders. Policy expectations are inherently fragile, and once such predictions spread in public opinion, they can become a driving force behind market sentiment.

The performance of ETH and other mainstream cryptocurrencies ultimately depends on how the macro policy environment evolves. When policy directions shift, market reactions tend to be very swift.

Cathie Wood's recent statement really stirs things up. Saying that Bitcoin is entering U.S. reserves is playing with fire right now.

Aha, Cathie is stirring up controversy again. Anyway, us retail investors just fall for this trick. Learning from El Salvador in the US? Dream on, my friend. Policy expectations are just tools to be exploited. As long as someone yells, crypto enthusiasts will believe it. I've seen through it all.

Cathie is telling us stories again, this time about the federal government copying El Salvador's homework? I don't believe you, haha. Let's not get ahead of ourselves; policy trends are like air—here one moment, gone the next. What really matters is actual implementation. But on the other hand, if that day really comes, the people hoarding now will be laughing all the way to 2030. Expectations are meant to be broken; don't take them too seriously. The policy isn't even in sight yet, and people are already speculating on expectations—typical crypto pump-and-dump tactics. Is the US learning from El Salvador? Let's wait until they sell off all the confiscated coins before jumping to conclusions. It's just a concept, used to attract retail investors. Stay alert, everyone. A single sentence can influence the coin's price—I don't know whether to be happy or worried. Cathie's arguments always find believers; her charm is endless. If policy expectations are fragile, then it's just a bubble—when it bursts, we'll all kneel. Wait, isn't this about giving institutions a stepping stone? Nice words, but it all depends on what the folks in the White House think.

Cathie, this mouth of hers, really can boast haha. But will the US include BTC in its reserves? Let's see what Congress has to say first.

Cathie Wood's recent remarks are indeed energizing the market, but is the US really going to copy El Salvador's playbook? Hey, at least it shows that Bitcoin is starting to gain influence within the system.

Cathie Wood's rhetoric sounds good, but will the US government really do that? Let's wait and see their actions first. When will policies become clearer? The current indecisiveness is really hard to predict. El Salvador has already accumulated reserves; if the US keeps delaying, they'll be left behind. It’s definitely a possibility. Policy expectations are just an illusion; public opinion can sway and then disperse again. It's called strategic reserves in a nice way, but in a harsh way, it's just an excuse to cut the leeks. Now everything depends on policy... I've gotten used to it long ago. BTC is just a political bargaining chip. They're hyping it up, but the key is whether there are real measures with actual funds behind them. Anyway, it's all speculation. Bitcoin still goes up and down; a couple of comments don't make much difference.
