Cardano (ADA), Ripple (XRP), and Solana (SOL) all fell sharply today after a White House official said President Donald Trump’s recent remarks about creating a strategic crypto reserve may have been misinterpreted.
The statement came ahead of the White House Crypto Summit and left investors unclear about the administration's commitment to specific cryptocurrencies.
Earlier in the week, Trump announced via social media that he would sign an executive order directing the Presidential Task Force to establish a U.S. crypto reserve. The proposed reserve would reportedly include Bitcoin (BTC), Ethereum (ETH), ADA, XRP, and SOL, and the announcement briefly fueled market speculation and price increases.
However, in a press call ahead of the summit, senior White House official and cryptocurrency advisor David Sacks contradicted Trump’s statement, suggesting that the inclusion of these specific assets was not a certainty.
“I think the President only gave five examples of cryptocurrencies in his article. Those five are probably the largest by market cap,” he said. “I think people are over-interpreting this a little bit. Ultimately, I think what we’re describing here is consistent with what the President has always said about the space.”
The apparent inconsistency raised questions about whether the administration’s stance on crypto reserves is well-defined or merely political rhetoric. Following the announcement, ADA, XRP, and SOL all experienced sell-offs as traders adjusted their expectations based on the administration’s changing stance.
