Trump Announces U.S. Crypto Reserve Including Bitcoin, Ethereum, and Altcoins

The initiative aims to establish the U.S. as a global leader in digital assets, sparking immediate market reactions and policy discussions.

President Trump unveiled plans for a U.S. 'Crypto Strategic Reserve' featuring Bitcoin, Ethereum, Ripple, Solana, and Cardano.
The announcement led to significant price surges for included cryptocurrencies, with Cardano rising 70% and Bitcoin climbing 10%.
This marks a dramatic shift in Trump’s stance on crypto, as he previously criticized digital assets during his first term in office.
The reserve is part of a broader strategy to position the U.S. as a leader in the digital asset space and counter global competition, particularly from China.
Policymakers and industry leaders, including Senator Cynthia Lummis, are preparing to discuss the reserve’s framework at a key summit on March 11.
