At a closed-door roundtable hosted by the Bitcoin Policy Institute on Tuesday, Bo Hines, executive director of the President's Digital Assets Task Force, told attendees that the White House intends to acquire as many bitcoins as possible, according to multiple attendees. When someone in the room asked how many bitcoins the U.S. government might eventually acquire, Hines joked that the question was like asking a person how many dollars they want.
A White House official confirmed that Hines did make a statement about acquiring as many bitcoins as possible, but added that any such acquisition would be "done in a budget-neutral manner and would not cost taxpayers a penny". A White House official stressed that Hines had not supported any specific legislation during the event.
