Howard Lutnick, the U.S. Commerce Secretary and widely recognized for his role as Chairman and CEO of Cantor Fitzgerald, addressed the anticipation surrounding the White House Crypto Summit and the highly debated strategic crypto reserve. Lutnick expressed his view that President Donald Trump is expected to unveil the reserve model concept during the gathering.

“Now there will be the question of, how do we handle the other cryptocurrencies? And I think the model is going to be announced on Friday when we do that,” Lutnick is quoted as saying.

Lutnick has long been a staunch proponent of cryptocurrency, likening bitcoin to gold and championing its unrestricted global trade. During his tenure, Cantor Fitzgerald played a role in overseeing Tether’s U.S. Treasury reserves and invested in its parent company. He has openly disclosed that his personal holdings in BTC amount to hundreds of millions of dollars, with the expectation that this stake will eventually expand into the billions.

In the past, Lutnick has characterized bitcoin as an essential pillar of his investment portfolio. “A Bitcoin strategic reserve is something the President’s interested in. He spoke about it all during the campaign trail, and I think you’re going to see it executed on Friday,” Lutnick told The Pavlovic Today.

Lutnick added:

So bitcoin is one thing, and then the other currencies, the other crypto tokens, I think, will be treated differently—positively, but differently.

As the White House Crypto Summit approaches, Lutnick’s insights suggest a pivotal moment for digital assets on the global stage. His involvement, both personally and through Cantor Fitzgerald, signals a deep-rooted confidence in cryptocurrency’s evolving role in finance. With regulatory discussions intensifying, the forthcoming announcement may redefine the strategic significance of digital reserves in the U.S. economy.
