  • He argued users can move $500 million in Bitcoin late on a Sunday for virtually no fees, contrasting crypto’s speed with traditional banking cutoffs.
  • Trump said crypto rails will funnel capital into the U.S. and bolster dollar primacy through USD-backed stablecoins.
  • Reports highlight his role as co-founder and CSO of American Bitcoin, described as near a $4 billion public company with West Texas mining and a merger with Gryphon Digital Mining.
  • Analysts at Santiment and Rekt Capital flagged cooling trader sentiment and technical risks, with Bitcoin below $100,000 despite strong two-year performance.
