Over the past year, the cryptocurrency market has seen significant growth and volatility. In 2024, the total market capitalization nearly doubled from $1.65 trillion to $3.28 trillion, driven by major milestones such as the approval of Bitcoin ETFs by the U.S. SEC, which boosted institutional and retail participation. The election of President Donald Trump, known for his pro-crypto stance, further strengthened market confidence. In March 2025, Trump announced the establishment of a Crypto Strategic Reserve, including assets like Bitcoin (BTC), Ethereum (ETH), Solana (SOL), Cardano (ADA), and Ripple (XRP), positioning the U.S. as a leader in the digital asset space. This news caused an immediate surge in prices, but the market has since corrected. As of March 12, 2025, Bitcoin is trading around $82,500, down from its earlier peak, while Ethereum is priced at approximately $1,891.64 and XRP at $2.20. These price movements highlight the market’s sensitivity to regulatory developments and broader economic factors.
