🚨 Bitcoin surges and then falls back, major reshuffle in the market!
The Trump administration has just announced that the United States will officially include 198,000 bitcoins in its strategic reserves, without selling them off. This decision initially drove BTC up 3.7% to $91,250.
However, the government further stated that "no new bitcoin purchases will be made," causing market expectations to fall short, resulting in a sharp drop of BTC by 7.5% to $84,480, currently quoted at $87,976.
🚨 Market fluctuations led to $530 million in liquidations, with over 152,000 investors getting liquidated!

🔍 Impact of Trump's Bitcoin strategic reserve policy
✅ Short-term benefits
• The government decided to use 198,000 BTC as the national strategic reserve, reducing supply-side selling pressure, leading to an initial positive market reaction.
• Institutional investors' attention has increased, and government participation further legitimizes the crypto market.
⚠️ Market disappointment points
• The government will not purchase more bitcoins! The market originally expected the U.S. government to continue accumulating BTC like other countries (such as El Salvador), but the policy fell short, leading to a sell-off.
• This indicates that the government views the existing bitcoins as "reserve assets," but will not take on the role of an "active buyer," which cannot further drive long-term demand growth.

🔮 My market forecast
📌 In the short term, the market will continue to experience high volatility!
BTC is fluctuating between $85,000 and $90,000, waiting for further policy details.
If there is no more buying demand to support it, a deeper pullback may occur.
📌 Long-term impacts still need to be monitored for regulation
This incident proves that the U.S. government has begun to view bitcoin as a strategic asset, which is a significant benefit for the long-term legitimization of the market.
However, the government's lack of further purchases means the market still needs to rely on institutional funding and ETF inflows to maintain long-term upward momentum.
📌 Altcoins are more volatile, with higher risk
SOL, XRP, ADA and others surged due to reserve rumors but fell back; long-term value still requires attention to fundamentals and development progress.
Short-term traders should operate cautiously to avoid being swept out by the market's violent fluctuations!
