Recently, following a vote, the U.S. Senate officially confirmed Paul Atkins, nominated by Trump, as the SEC Chairman. With this, the main government officials of Trump's current term have been largely confirmed, and this group will become key figures influencing the political and economic landscape of the U.S. and the world, as well as the cryptocurrency market over the next four years.
Thus, although major officials of the Trump administration are constrained by the U.S. Office of Government Ethics, their crypto holdings may still become an important factor influencing subsequent regulatory policies and favorable developments for cryptocurrency projects. Based on this, Odaily Planet Daily will organize the cryptocurrency-related holdings of key figures in this article for readers' reference.
Vice President Vance: Focused on BTC
According to a previous report by Business Insider, the current U.S. Vice President JD Vance disclosed his personal financial information for 2023 in August 2024, showing that Vance has assets of approximately $4 million; of which, the related crypto assets are about $250,000 to $500,000, all in Bitcoin.
Additionally, index funds related to crypto assets and funds from crypto asset management companies are also included.

White House AI and Crypto Director David Sacks: Previously Held BTC, ETH, SOL, BITW, Now Fully Liquidated
A White House memorandum shows that David Sacks, the U.S. AI and cryptocurrency affairs director, sold over $200 million in digital asset-related investments through his personal and company Craft Ventures before taking office, with approximately $85 million in income belonging to him personally, including Bitcoin, Ethereum, Solana, and the Bitwise 10 Crypto Index Fund (BITW), and sold shares in Coinbase (COIN) and Robinhood (HOOD).
Additionally, he exited investments in Multicoin Capital, Blockchain Capital, and Bitwise Asset Management, and began to gradually withdraw from holdings in some private digital asset companies. Furthermore, Sacks still holds some equity in funds under Craft Ventures, which invest in companies like BitGo and Lightning Labs; these investments are difficult to fully exit due to liquidity constraints, accounting for less than 3.8% of his total investment assets.
This information has also been confirmed and responded to by David Sacks himself, with Multicoin Capital managing partner Kyle Samani and Bitwise CEO Hunter Horsley providing corresponding explanations.
SEC Chairman Paul Atkins: Indirectly Holds BTC
According to crypto KOL @0x_Todd speculating in a post, it is estimated that Paul Atkins has crypto-related assets of about $2 million to $6 million. His investment in Off The Chain Capital fund employs a Bitcoin strategy (focusing on low-price investment opportunities in Bitcoin, such as debt in Mt. Gox, Bitcoin mining machines, Bitcoin leverage, etc.), thus indirectly holding Bitcoin.
Additionally, he holds shares in the crypto company Securitize and Anchorage Digital, the only crypto bank in the U.S., with asset levels of about $250,000 to $500,000.
U.S. Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent: Holds IBIT
U.S. Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent previously disclosed his personal asset documents in August 2024, showing total financial assets of approximately $521 million.
In comparison, his crypto assets only include the Bitcoin spot ETF IBIT, with asset levels of about $250,000 to $500,000, accounting for less than 0.1% of his personal assets.
Additionally, his investment portfolio includes crypto-related assets such as the SPDR S&P 500 Trust Fund (SPY) and Invesco QQQ Trust Fund (QQQ), valued at over $100 million.
U.S. Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick: Holds 5% of Tether Shares and Several BTC
According to financial disclosure documents released by the U.S. Office of Government Ethics (OGE), current U.S. Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick disclosed his crypto assets and related investments in a report submitted on January 24, 2025.
Previously, he had clearly stated that he holds Bitcoin and views it as a globally freely traded asset "like gold"; his company Cantor Fitzgerald is a major partner of the stablecoin issuer Tether, managing approximately $39 billion in U.S. Treasury bonds. According to previous reports, Lutnick plans to transfer the company's Tether business relationship to his son Brandon Lutnick.
Additionally, according to reports, Cantor Fitzgerald holds a 5% stake in Tether, valued at approximately $600 million; last year, Cantor Fitzgerald also planned to launch a Bitcoin financing business, providing initial funding of up to $2 billion in leverage support for Bitcoin investors.
DOGE Department Head Musk: BTC and DOGE
As a "star player" in Trump's current administration, Musk's crypto holdings have always been a focal point of market attention.
According to Arkham platform data, on March 7, the number of Bitcoin held by Musk's company Tesla increased to 11,509, which is about 1,789 more BTC than the 9,720 BTC balance reported in the last financial statement.
And just last November, Dogecoin UI designer DogeDesigner, who frequently interacts with Musk, shared an audio clip of Musk on the X platform, in which Musk stated, "I still hold a lot of Dogecoin, and SpaceX still holds Bitcoin."
