Since last Friday, the total market cap has surged nearly 20%, sparking a wave of excitement among investors.

But that’s not all – altcoins and meme coins are rallying hard, and whale activity is picking up steam. With Trump doubling down on crypto-friendly policies and his White House Crypto Summit just around the corner, let’s understand what could be coming next.

The news initially caused Bitcoin dominance to drop from 55.4% to under 50% as traders shifted focus to these altcoins.
An hour later, Trump followed up, revealing that Bitcoin (BTC) and Ethereum (ETH) would also be part of the reserve. The announcement triggered a sharp rally:

Among the top-performing assets in the past 24 hours (with a market cap over $1 billion), Cardano, XRP, the Official Trump Memecoin, and Solana led the pack. Meanwhile, BNB had the smallest gain among the top 10 non-stablecoins, rising 2.55%.
