VanEck Executive: Establishing a U.S. Strategic Bitcoin Reserve Requires Congressional Legislation

Golden Finance reported that Matthew Sigel, head of digital assets at VanEck, stated at the "Bitcoin 2025" conference in Las Vegas that the "most feasible path" to establish a permanent U.S. strategic Bitcoin reserve is through "targeted amendments to congressional budget legislation." He pointed out that these amendments could include "providing tax credits for mining companies using methane gas," and encouraging miners to "pay a portion of their Bitcoins to the federal government." Sigel said this would allow the reserve to "naturally rise over time."
