The U.S. SEC Chairman Paul Atkins stated it is unclear whether U.S. authorities will seize Venezuela's rumored Bitcoin holdings estimated at $60 billion. Multiple blockchain analysis firms have not verified the claim that Venezuela possesses 600,000 BTC. Meanwhile, the U.S. Senate Banking Committee is set to review the Digital Asset Market Transparency Act, aiming to enhance regulatory authority over digital assets, although legislative progress may be delayed by the upcoming 2026 midterm elections.
