#AirdropSafetyGuide The first 100 days of Donald Trump's second presidency, from January 20 to April 30, 2025, have been marked by a flurry of executive actions, policy shifts, and controversy, drawing comparisons to Franklin D. Roosevelt’s transformative 1933 benchmark. Here’s a concise overview based on available information:Key Actions and Policies:Executive Orders: Trump signed over 140 executive orders, a record-breaking pace, targeting immigration, government efficiency, trade, and more. These included declaring a national emergency at the southern border, ending diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) programs, and reversing Biden-era policies on climate and immigration.Immigration: Trump prioritized mass deportations, shutting down the CBP One app, and designating drug cartels as terrorist organizations. Migrant crossings dropped to a 25-year low of 8,450 in February 2025. However, actions like deporting a Maryland father and defying court orders sparked legal battles.Trade and Tariffs: Trump launched a global tariff war, imposing tariffs on countries like China, Canada, and Mexico, branding April 2 as “Liberation Day.” Market volatility followed, with the S&P 500 and Dow Jones taking significant hits. Some tariffs were later softened after pushback.Government Efficiency: Elon Musk’s Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) led to tens of thousands of federal layoffs, targeting agencies like the Department of Education and USAID. Critics called the cuts chaotic, while supporters praised the reduction of bureaucracy.

$BTC Abu Dhabi is advancing its cryptocurrency strategy with plans for a new dirham-backed stablecoin, announced on April 28, 2025, by ADQ (a sovereign wealth fund), First Abu Dhabi Bank (FAB), and International Holding Company (IHC). This stablecoin, fully regulated by the UAE Central Bank, will operate on the ADI blockchain and aims to facilitate digital payments and enhance the UAE’s digital asset ecosystem. This follows the UAE’s launch of AE Coin, its first dirham-backed stablecoin, in December 2024, as part of the Central Bank’s “Digital Dirham” strategy initiated in March 2023. The UAE’s crypto-friendly regulations, including the recognition of stablecoins like Tether’s USDT and Circle’s USDC, and a $2 billion investment by Abu Dhabi’s MGX in Binance in March 2025, underscore its ambition to become a global crypto hub.

#ArizonaBTCReserve Arizona has passed two bills, SB 1025 (Arizona Strategic Bitcoin Reserve Act) and SB 1373 (Strategic Digital Assets Reserve Bill), to establish a state-managed cryptocurrency reserve, making it the first U.S. state to approve such legislation. SB 1025 allows up to 10% of public funds, including treasury and pension assets, to be invested in Bitcoin and other virtual currencies. SB 1373 creates a Digital Assets Strategic Reserve Fund for seized digital assets and state-allocated funds, also capped at 10% annual investment. Both bills passed the Arizona House on April 29, 2025, and await Governor Katie Hobbs’ signature. Despite a prior veto threat over unrelated budget issues, Hobbs lifted this after a bipartisan deal on April 24, 2025, though her stance on these bills remains unclear. If signed into law, Arizona would lead in state-level Bitcoin adoption, potentially influencing other states like Texas, Florida, and New Hampshire, where similar legislation is pending. Bitcoin’s price rose to around $95,000 after the votes, reflecting market enthusiasm.

$ETH Technological Evolution: Ethereum's transition to Proof-of-Stake via the Merge (2022) and subsequent upgrades like sharding (expected in future phases) aim to boost scalability, reduce energy use, and lower transaction costs. Layer 2 solutions (e.g., Optimism, Arbitrum) are already easing congestion, with gas fees dropping significantly since 2024 peaks. Expect deeper integration of zero-knowledge proofs for privacy and efficiency by 2030.Adoption and Use Cases: Ethereum remains the backbone of DeFi, NFTs, and DAOs, hosting over 60% of DeFi's total value locked ($50B+ as of 2025). Enterprise adoption is growing, with firms like JPMorgan and Microsoft leveraging Ethereum for tokenized assets and supply chain solutions. However, competition from Solana, Polkadot, and layer-1 chains could challenge dominance unless Ethereum sustains its developer ecosystem
