## Resource

The White House has cleared a path for alternative assets, including Bitcoin and crypto, to become available through American retirement plans, potentially connecting Bitcoin with a 401(k) system holding roughly $12 trillion. We break down what even a small percentage of that capital seeking Bitcoin exposure could mean for long-term demand. Also today, U.S. spot Bitcoin ETFs reportedly recorded $3.5 billion in August inflows, El Salvador's Strategic Bitcoin Reserve has reached 7,762 BTC, the U.S. controls roughly 330,000 BTC, and corporate Bitcoin accumulation continues around the world. 📺 Prefer video?
