As the buzz around the strategic Bitcoin reserve is going around, Bitcoin investor Wayne Vaughan raised concern over this innovative idea, saying Trump’s administration is phishing “Bitcoin adoption too aggressively.”
This aggressive approach could create turbulence in the treasury market and trigger inflation, according to Wayne Vaughan. He cited Ryan Selkis’s analysis of the ongoing debt situation in the U.S. and how Trump’s nomination of the next Treasury Secretary will play a role in changing the current situation.

Ryan Selkis said, “The most important role the next Treasury Secretary will have is selling bonds,” he added “our success in rolling over our debt without major disruptions or interest rate spikes will determine whether Trump’s reform-minded cabinet navigates a soft landing for the economy, or we have a debt and currency crisis that stunts the momentum of the Trump 47 team, and sets back the America-First agenda’s long-term success.”
His analysis emphasized maintaining the dollar’s reserve status as it is to retain the trust and market confidence in the national reserve. “Treasury isn’t what needs a shake-up,” he says.

Ryan thinks the idea of replacing Gold reserves with BTC reserves might send a wrong signal to all sovereign investors that they would benefit more from piling into Bitcoin-mania than investing in Treasuries.
He passed a bold statement, “A 10% rotation from short-term Treasuries to Bitcoin would be catastrophic for our interest rates, and likely lead to new inflation”.
