Is Donald Trump planning to create a national Ethereum reserve in 2025? Polymarket bettors believe it is an increasingly likely scenario.
The odds of a US national Ethereum reserve creation in 2025 have surged from 9% to 32% in just two weeks and were as high as 40% earlier today.
A national stockpile would explain why Donald Trump’s World Liberty Financial is buying millions in ETH every week, with the company’s total Ethereum holdings now above $200 million.
The Ethereum price is also showing signs of trend reversal and is flipping key resistance levels. ETH-based memes like Pepe and Brett and low-caps like Meme Index also appear poised for a major breakout.
Is National Ethereum Reserve A Possibility?
Donald Trump’s World Liberty Financial has stunned the market with its Ethereum buying spree.
The fact that the US President’s crypto company holds over $200 million worth of Ethereum — more than three times its WBTC holding — has sparked hope among ETH bulls: ‘What does World Liberty Financial know about Ethereum that others don’t?
Polymarket bettors believe it’s because Trump could sign an executive order, creating a national Ethereum reserve.
The President recently formed a crypto working group to explore the creation of a ‘national crypto stockpile.’ Interestingly, despite the hype surrounding a Strategic Bitcoin Reserve, Trump’s executive order referred to a crypto stockpile, rather than a BTC reserve.
If a national Ethereum reserve indeed becomes a reality, the ETH price could surge past the $6,000 mark, which many experts view as its 2025 price target.
Ethereum Price Prediction — Is It Time To Rotate Capital To ETH?
A growing number of experts are flipping to being bullish on Ethereum as the largest altcoin sees its technicals improve.
For instance, the Ethereum price has flipped its 99-day Smoothed Moving Average (SMMA) following Wednesday’s FOMC for the first time since November.
Additionally, it appears to be forming a bullish divergence in the daily time frame, which could pave the way for a rally to $4000.
Experts are also noticing the formation of a “Power of 3” setup, which could send the largest altcoin to $5000.
With Donald Trump stacking ETH and its improving technicals, it could finally be time for investors to rotate their capital from Solana to Ethereum.
Ethereum Meme Coins Set For Breakout — Pepe, Brett, Meme Index
Ethereum meme coins tend to show a strong correlation with ETH. For instance, the Pepe price is up by 7% on Thursday following Ethereum’s show of strength.
The meme coin appears to be at the end of its macro A-B-C correction, which could pave the way for a bullish reversal. A higher-low pattern in the lower time frames also suggests the possibility of a Pepe rally.
Similarly, the Brett price is up by 6% on Thursday and has reclaimed the $800 billion market cap.
Meanwhile, low-cap meme coins continue to deliver outsized returns. Just today, Jelly-My-Jelly went from a $100k to $100 million market capitalization in the span of an hour.
Smart money investors are now bullish on Meme Index (MEMEX) as well, the first-ever index fund designed for meme coins.
With a combination of decentralization and innovation, the project offers broader market exposure to the meme coin sector while spreading the risk.
MEMEX holders will get to invest in 4 different meme coin baskets — Titan, Moonshot, Midcap and Frenzy — each with a different risk-reward ratio. Additionally, they can even vote on which tokens are included in each basket.
Considering Meme Index is fulfilling a major demand in the meme coin sector, it is no surprise that investors are eying up to 100x returns from it.
