🚀 Crypto Market Cap Rockets Toward $4T as Bitcoin & Altcoins Soar on US Regulatory Breakthrough

Wall Street's worst nightmare just came true—digital assets are eating their lunch. The crypto market's total valuation is knocking on $4 trillion's door after a seismic rally triggered by Washington's latest policy shift.

Bitcoin leads the charge

The OG cryptocurrency smashed through resistance levels like a bull in a china shop. Altcoins followed suit—Ethereum, Solana, and even meme coins posted double-digit gains before breakfast.

Regulation breeds legitimacy

Turns out clarity from lawmakers works better than any marketing campaign. The new legislation cuts through years of regulatory fog, giving institutions the green light to dive in headfirst.

Bankers scrambling to catch up

Watch legacy finance 'innovate' at glacial speeds while DeFi protocols rewrite the rulebook in real-time. Somewhere in Manhattan, a hedge fund manager is desperately Googling 'how to short CBDCs.'

This isn't a rally—it's a reckoning. The smart money's already positioned. The question is: are you?

Crypto Market Cap Surpasses $4 Trillion Milestone

Meanwhile, CoinGecko has already reported that the market cap has crossed the $4 trillion milestone.

Bitcoin regained its footing above $120,000 on Thursday, experiencing modest daily gains.

Ether surged 8%, topping $3,600 for the first time since January, marking a 40% increase over the last two weeks.

Meanwhile, XRP experienced a dramatic spike of nearly 20%, reaching a year-to-date high of $3.64 early Friday.

Reaching a $4 trillion market cap WOULD place cryptocurrencies just behind Nvidia, the world’s largest publicly listed company, which recently surpassed the same valuation.

The recent legislative momentum in the US has boosted investor confidence, sparking fresh enthusiasm for digital assets across the board.

On Thursday, the US House of Representatives passed three cryptocurrency-related bills, sending one directly to President Donald TRUMP and the other two to the Senate.

These moves are part of the Trump administration’s broader effort to establish the US as the “crypto capital of the world” during what the president calls “crypto week.”

The key bill heading to Trump, the GENIUS Act, introduces initial regulations and consumer protections for stablecoins, cryptocurrencies pegged to stable assets like the US dollar.

It passed the House with bipartisan support and aims to balance innovation with safeguarding consumers in the evolving payments landscape.

Another bill, which passed by a narrower margin, seeks to clarify how different types of digital assets are regulated, distinguishing commodities, overseen by the Commodity Futures Trading Commission, from securities, regulated by the Securities and Exchange Commission.

The legislation now moves to the Senate for further consideration.

A third bill, passed narrowly, would prohibit the US from issuing a central bank digital currency (CBDC), essentially banning government-backed digital cash. This bill also awaits Senate review.

Trump Family’s Crypto Holdings Spark Conflict of Interest Concerns

Trump’s family holds significant interests in crypto ventures, including World Liberty Financial, raising concerns over conflicts of interest and potential corruption.

According to financial disclosures released last Friday, the former president pulled in $58 million from crypto ventures in 2024, primarily through WLFI token sales.

That total trailed only his hospitality income and is expected to climb further in 2025 with an anticipated $390 million token sale and gains from his meme coin, launched in January.

His involvement in Bitcoin mining, tokenized assets, and digital ETFs is raising concerns about potential conflicts of interest.
