Source: Grok. Even at the Congressional level, altcoins are not being discussed, only a bitcoin reserve. Trump recently reaffirmed that these cryptocurrencies will be part of a national treasury. On March 2, 2025, U.S. President Donald Trump surprised the cryptocurrency ecosystem by confirming that the country's Strategic Digital Assets Reserve would not only include bitcoin (BTC) and ether (ETH) but also XRP, Solana (SOL), and Cardano (ADA). However, despite this historic announcement, public and media conversation has almost exclusively revolved around BTC, relegating these altcoins to the background. Even in the U.S. Congress, where the economic impact of this initiative is being debated, altcoins are barely mentioned, and the focus remains on the BTC treasury. Advertising What happened to XRP, Solana, and Cardano? Why does their inclusion seem to have been silenced? It all began with Trump's promise during the Bitcoin 2024 conference in Nashville, where he proposed the idea of a strategic reserve based on BTC as a pillar to position the U.S. as the 'crypto capital of the world,' as reported by CriptoNoticias. This vision took concrete shape on January 23, 2025, when he signed an executive order to create a national reserve of digital assets, as reported by this outlet. At that time, the emphasis was on bitcoin, with plans to accumulate up to 200,000 BTC. The narrative was clear: bitcoin would be the core of this strategy, a 'digital gold' for the 21st century.
