Crypto Twitter hypes ‘big Bitcoin news’ Tuesday – what we know

Crypto Twitter is buzzing about a “massive” Bitcoin announcement expected Tuesday (Sept. 22) in the U.S., after Satoshi Act Fund’s Dennis Porter posted that the news would be a defining moment for Bitcoin politics. Multiple influencers amplified the tease, but none supplied details or documents, and no official schedule has been published.

Porter set the tone over the weekend with an all‑caps teaser about “massive political news” for Bitcoin on Tuesday that would “reshape the trajectory” of policy. A follow‑up noted that Bitcoin politics “will never be the same” in less than 48 hours. He later described the coming announcement as highly political and framed possible “Bitcoin rights” in plain terms as the right to self‑custody and the right to peer‑to‑peer transactions.

Other prominent accounts echoed the drumbeat. One said to expect “absolutely huge news” from the White House on Tuesday afternoon, specifying that it concerns Bitcoin and possibly crypto more broadly.

Another wrote that direct messages and texts had surged and that Tuesday would be a big day for Bitcoin and crypto, while declining to provide specifics beyond general excitement.

As the posts spread, rumor and satire followed. Smaller accounts circulated unverified claims about a BITCOIN Act update, name‑checking industry figures and senators, and even floated the idea that the U.S. could pursue a strategic reserve of Bitcoin (for example, a multi‑year government purchase program). Those assertions were shared without underlying documents and did not come from official channels.
