TREE NEWS update: The US House Financial Services Committee is set to consider H.R. 8957, the American Reserve Modernization Act of 2026, on Wednesday, September 16, 2026, moving the bill to a committee vote. Introduced by Representative Nick Begich, with Jared Golden as the sole Democratic co-sponsor, the bill would create a Strategic Bitcoin Reserve at the Treasury and a separate digital asset reserve for non-bitcoin assets. Forfeited bitcoin would enter the reserve.

AI take
The bill's design matters more than its timing: a bitcoin-only reserve paired with a separate bucket for other digital assets signals that lawmakers are treating BTC as a distinct monetary asset rather than one token among many. The near-total absence of Democratic support makes the committee vote a test of whether this can become bipartisan, or remains a party-line marker. Whether the forfeiture mechanism becomes the default funding route, and whether the non-bitcoin reserve survives markup, are the open questions.
