Trump’s Game-Changing Crypto Endorsement: A Watershed Moment for Digital Assets
Political heavyweight drops bombshell praise on cryptocurrency—legitimizing the asset class like never before.
Market reacts: Bitcoin surges 8% on the news as institutional interest spikes.
The ultimate validation? Even Wall Street skeptics are forced to reconsider their stance.
Funny how politicians only embrace disruptive tech once their donors start demanding it.
Dollar And Bitcoin At Odds
Market data shows a long-running tension between the US dollar and Bitcoin. Analysts say their price movements often go in opposite directions.
During the Federal Reserve’s 2022 rate hikes, the Dollar Index rose to 114 while Bitcoin fell from $47,000 to below $17,000. But in 2020 and 2021, when the dollar weakened, Bitcoin soared to around $64,000.

Reports also note that bitcoin tends to act like a high-risk asset rather than a hedge, rising when money is cheap and dropping when liquidity tightens.
Academic studies using wavelet analysis confirm the two assets often MOVE out of sync, though the pattern isn’t perfectly stable.
Policy Moves And Reserve Plans
Trump’s position lines up with ongoing policy discussions in Washington. Senator Cynthia Lummis has backed creating a Strategic Bitcoin Reserve to help offset the nation’s $35 trillion debt.
The idea WOULD start with about 130,000 BTC the government already holds through criminal forfeitures, a supply valued near $34 billion.
Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent is reportedly assessing how such a reserve might operate beyond traditional Gold valuation methods.
Meanwhile, Eric TRUMP has promoted stablecoins, saying a USD1 token from World Liberty Financial could attract “trillions” into US markets.
Lawmakers including Maxine Waters and Elizabeth Warren have raised conflict-of-interest concerns, noting that the GENIUS Act signed in July has no restrictions on presidential family involvement in digital asset ventures.
Signs Of ReboundThe crypto market is finally showing signs of rejuvenation, with Bitcoin reclaiming the $103,000 mark.
Most other crypto assets are also trading in the green zone today. Trump Coin is among those leading the pack, recording massive gains with a double-digit rally in the daily and 14-day charts.
TRUMP’s price has rallied 12% in the last 24 hours, according to CoinGecko data, 35% in the 14-day charts, and 1.9% over the previous month.
However, the coin is still down 4% over the last week. TRUMP is currently the 4th-best performing crypto in the daily charts, followed by Internet Computer (ICP), Quant (QNT), and Zcash (ZEC).
Trump has been highly vocal in support of the crypto industry, even allowing crypto donations for his 2024 Presidential campaign.
He issued, among his first executive orders upon assuming office, the establishment of a strategic digital asset reserve for the US.
