Bitcoin's latest rallies-nudged by President Trump's "Strategic Bitcoin Reserve" executive order, a softer dollar, and a friendlier regulatory climate have suddenly made the asset hard to ignore, even for traditionally conservative investors."

Mainstream corporate finance increasingly adds Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies to corporate and institutional balance sheets. Bitcoin's rallies, driven by President Trump's "Strategic Bitcoin Reserve" executive order, a softer dollar, and a friendlier regulatory climate, have attracted conservative investors. Sovereign-wealth funds are quietly increasing exposure, state treasurers from Texas to Wyoming are sketching reserve playbooks, 401(k) plans can now include crypto, and major corporations including Tesla, Block, Figma, and MassMutual have added crypto line items. Christian Catalini, founder of the MIT Cryptoeconomics Lab and Lightspark's Chief Strategy Officer, has significant industry and regulatory advisory experience.
