$AI $FET $CGPT #VeThorOnBinance Crypto AI Tokens Rise as Bitcoin Waits for Trump Policies Bitcoin’s $100K drop was bought quickly and its outlook remains “bright,” one analyst said.
Cryptocurrencies in the emerging artificial intelligence (AI) agent sector surged sharply on Tuesday while Bitcoin (BTC) paused from Monday’s record highs as traders await the first crypto-specific actions from the Donald Trump administration. AI16Z’s ARC and AI Rig Complex are up more than 30% on the day, while GRIFFAIN and ZEREBRO are also posting double-digit gains. Part of the rally may have had to do with Tuesday afternoon’s news that President Trump is set to announce a $500 billion investment in private-sector AI infrastructure with companies like OpenAI, Oracle and Softbank involved. Trump also on Monday rescinded Joe Biden’s 2023 executive order on the risks of AI to consumers, rolling back efforts to regulate the fast-growing sector. #BTCNextATH? #BinanceAlphaAlert #CryptoSurge2025 #JobsBoomVsFed
