Donald Trump is stepping up his support for crypto, and this time, he’s not just making campaign promises—he’s laying out a game plan. Speaking at the Future Investment Initiative Institute conference in Miami, he declared his goal to make the U.S. a global leader in cryptocurrency. But here’s where it gets interesting—Trump isn’t just talking about crypto adoption. Some believe he might go even further, removing strict regulations and possibly stockpiling Bitcoin as a national asset.
And the market is already reacting. Bitcoin’s price jumped from $96,000 to $98,450 following his remarks, proving just how much influence politics now holds over crypto.
Let’s break down what’s happening.

Trump’s comments on Bitcoin appear to support this idea, as he continues to express his belief that cryptocurrency should be an integral part of the financial system. His views reflect a possible change in how the US government sees Bitcoin, taking a 360-degree turn from overreach to active participation.
The Blockchain Association’s Kristin Smith says the regulatory outlook for crypto is now highly positive. Congress is working to undo past restrictions, including the repeal of SAB 121, which made it harder for institutions to adopt crypto. Lawmakers are also working on clearer rules for stablecoins and market structures to make the U.S. a more crypto-friendly environment.
This shift could bring in new investors who were previously held back by SEC regulations. A clearer framework could increase adoption and bring fresh capital into the crypto market.
Bitcoin isn’t the only focus. Ethereum ETFs are gaining momentum, signaling that ETH is becoming a major institutional asset. According to Matt Hougan from Bitwise, this trend shows that big investors are increasingly confident in Ethereum.
At the same time, discussions around XRP and Solana ETFs are picking up. With the SEC’s stance shifting, more cryptocurrencies could soon be part of regulated investment products, making them accessible to a larger group of investors.
All these factors are creating a strong case for a bullish crypto market. However, Trump’s promises remain just that – promises. Whether he takes real action remains to be seen.
