In 2024 he launched a $TRUMP memecoin
He is now building cryptocurrency reserves like a nation-state
Here’s why he changed his mind and what’s coming next 👇🧵
1/ From enemy to emperor
Trump once described Bitcoin as a scam and cryptocurrencies as a threat
He is now launching memecoins, hosting NFT launches, and pushing crypto-friendly policies
It’s not hypocrisy - it’s recognition of power
2/ ➢ Trump understands leverage
Cryptocurrencies are no longer just money for geeks
It’s the voter base, the lobbying power, and a narrative weapon
By changing his pro-crypto stance, Trump not only shifted his position but also leveraged the movement to fuel his comeback.
3/ ➢ Building his own cryptocurrency reserves
Trump's wallets now hold millions of dollars in $ETH and memecoins
His NFT sales were just the beginning
He has become a whale in digital assets
4/ ➢ Central bank digital currencies are the real threat
Governments don’t hate cryptocurrencies, they hate cryptocurrencies they can’t control
Central bank digital currencies are their answer:
• Programmable money
• Tax-advantaged spending
• The macro vision
But Trump is betting on freedom coins - not control tokens
or at least for now this is his stance
5/ ➢ Cryptocurrency = Resistance currency
In our world, cryptocurrencies provide an exit
It protects against inflation, evades censorship, and opens up avenues for global capital.
Trump does not see it as just technology but as a new financial layer that governments cannot ignore
6/ ➢ America cannot fall behind
China is years ahead in central bank digital currency
The BRICS group is building cryptocurrency networks
BlackRock and Fidelity are fully investing in ETFs
