Trump ally Marjorie Taylor Greene invests in Bitcoin amid national strategy shift

Bitcoin adoption knocked on the doors of the U.S. Congress as lawmakers tapped crypto’s biggest token for personal wealth.

Marjorie Taylor Greene, a vocal Donald Trump supporter and U.S. Representative from the State of Georgia, invested in Bitcoin ( BTC ) via BlackRock’s iShares Bitcoin Trust.  Greene bought around $15,000 to $50,000 worth of Bitcoin exposure through BlackRock’s exchange-traded fund between March 3 and March 4, per public disclosures seen on March 10.

The Georgia GOP House member also acquired stocks in Tesla, a publicly traded BTC holder, and Goldman Sachs, which has signaled a willingness to offer crypto services if regulators permit. According to the records, Greene spent an estimated $140,000, with the largest allocation going to Bitcoin.

While the U.S. shifts toward a national Bitcoin strategy under President Donald Trump and states race to invest in the crypto as a reserve asset, not many policymakers hold BTC in their investment portfolios. Currently, Senators Cynthia Lummis and Ted Cruz, along with Representative Barry Moore, are the only known sitting members of Congress with Bitcoin exposure.

Historically, Representatives Bob Goodlatte and Madison Cawthorn also held BTC. However, it’s possible that other lawmakers may have BTC investments through trusts and family accounts, or they may control unreported Bitcoin.
