#Trump100Days In the first 100 days of President Donald Trump’s second term, the cryptocurrency space saw notable developments and policy shifts. One of the most significant actions was the creation of a U.S. strategic bitcoin reserve. This involved repurposing seized digital assets to diversify national holdings, signaling a more crypto-forward stance from the administration.

Regulatory attitudes also changed. The Securities and Exchange Commission dropped several high-profile lawsuits against major crypto firms, such as Coinbase and Ripple, indicating a shift toward a more business-friendly approach. The administration also repealed restrictive custody accounting rules, making it easier for financial institutions to hold crypto on behalf of clients. A new federal crypto working group was established to draft comprehensive regulatory frameworks.

Despite these positive regulatory signals, the market’s reaction was mixed. Bitcoin saw a decline of over 10% during this period, largely due to broader economic uncertainties and speculative activity, including the emergence of meme coins. While the administration’s actions laid groundwork for future crypto growth, investors are still waiting for decisive moves—such as clearer token classification and expanded ETF approvals—to solidify the U.S. as a true leader in digital assets.
