Let go of that heart trapped between greed and fear, impulse and hesitation.
Good morning, esteemed BTC, ETH, SOL, XRP, and ADA holders.
Is the month-long crypto bear market finally over?
From enduring waterfall-like crashes to an unexpected market rebound — things turned around in a flash.
Last night, former U.S. President Donald Trump dropped a bombshell on Truth Social — announcing that the U.S. would elevate the status of the crypto industry through a ‘Crypto Strategic Reserve’, explicitly naming XRP, SOL, and ADA as part of this initiative.
Notably, this isn’t Trump’s first time pushing for a crypto reserve:
- July 2024— At the Bitcoin 2024 conference, Trump floated the idea of a National Bitcoin Reserve.
- November 2024 — After winning re-election, he continued advocating for the initiative.
- January 2025 — He signed an executive order to assess the feasibility of a National Digital Asset Reserve.
Today’s post appears to be a continuation — and a concrete step forward — in that long-term plan.
This time, while BTC and ETH weren’t explicitly mentioned (they’re already established frontrunners), it’s the first time XRP, SOL, and ADA have been formally included in a U.S. strategic reserve initiative.
The market’s reaction was instant.
According to CMC data, prices of the mentioned cryptos **skyrocketed within hours:
- XRP surged 33%,
- SOL gained 22%,
- ADA exploded with a 60%+ rally.
- Even BTC and ETH climbed 8% and 11%, respectively.
The total crypto market cap ballooned by $300 billion in just a few hours, reversing recent downtrends and reigniting the narrative that the “crypto president” might just be crypto’s biggest lifeline.
But the real question is —did you actually make money?
Trump says a word, and boom — ADA goes ballistic, XRP’s FDV even overtakes ETH.
But let’s be real — before Trump’s announcement, would you have had the guts to go all-in on ADA or XRP, knowing the bear market might drag on and your portfolio already looked like a crime scene?
In crypto, news is king, but who actually profits? That’s where the inner circle comes in.
Just because ‘you’ didn’t make money doesn’t mean nobody did. The closer you are to the core, the better your odds — because some folks already positioned themselves before the news even dropped.
Case in point — just hours before Trump’s post, some big shot on Hyperliquid went insanely long on BTC and ETH with 50x leverage. Coincidence? Yeah, sure.
When a single presidential post dictates the market, crypto doesn’t just pump — it gets politicized and Americanized.
And let’s not forget — a president and his team? That’s centralization and power plays, wrapped in a suit. The subtext? We do what we want — markets just deal with it.
Arthur Hayes? He’s calling BS on the whole “crypto reserve” talk — says it’s all smoke and mirrors. The U.S. doesn’t even have the budget to stack BTC or alts. Bullish long term? Sure. Buying here? Hell no.
When one guy, one sentence, and one piece of paper control the entire market, this so-called “revival” isn’t some grand industry win — it’s a zero-sum game.
Some folks are printing, others? Wrecked.
And for the retail crowd? Gov policies never really change your fate.
Ask yourself — where’s your bag at? Are you up but too greedy to take profits, or still bag-holding and coping?
To sum up, the golden rule in crypto investing is do your own research.
Oh, and make sure you’re using a solid wallet — like Electrum (Bitcoin), MetaMask (Ethereum), Trust Wallet (Multi-Chain), or Qrim Wallet (Quilibrium). Make sure to choose the wallet that aligns with your specific crypto needs and provides a secure environment for your digital assets.
