US Cryptocurrency American actions closed in the red, while investors were waiting for the actions of President Donald Trump concerning his promises for the cryptocurrency industry. Despite expectations surrounding Trump’s first day of term, there was no decision or immediate declaration concerning the regulation of cryptocurrencies, leaving the market in a state of uncertainty.
Cryptographic actions fight in a context of uncertainty
The actions of important companies linked to cryptography have experienced notable declines throughout the day. Riot Platforms (Riot) fell 4.85 %, Digital Holding Marathon (Mara) dropped by 1.76 %and Terawulf Inc (WULF) experienced a drop of 6.88 %. This weakness of cryptographic actions contrasts with the regular recovery of Bitcoin, which increased by 3.45 % and was exchanged to $ 105,770 at the time, approaching its recent historic summit of $ 108,659.
Mixed performances suggest that even if Bitcoin remains strong, the wider sector of cryptography is faced with opposite winds, largely due to the lack of clarity on the part of the United States government concerning its position on digital assets.
Crypto enthusiasts are waiting for an action from Trump
The participants of the industry hoped that the first day of mandate of President Trump would give an orientation to the sector. Trump had made promises during his campaign to support the growth of the cryptography industry, including the creation of a Bitcoin strategic reserve. However, his first day was largely devoid of specific measures concerning cryptocurrencies.
The same day, Trump acted by grabbing Ross Ulbricht, the founder of the Silk Road, which led to believe that the president could still take action to support industry. Ulbricht’s grace was a major moment for defenders of cryptography, as it seems to signal Trump’s continuous interest in the sector. This decision, although delayed by a day, aroused optimism within the community.
Anthony Pompliano, an eminent supporter of Bitcoin and venture capital investor, expressed his confidence on social networks, suggesting that Ulbricht’s grace was a sign of things to come. He believes that Trump’s projects concerning cryptographic space will soon be concentrated, stressing that grace could open the way to actions such as the creation of the Bitcoin Strategic Reserve.
Broader market trends and economic perspectives
While cryptographic actions have experienced decreases, the American stock market as a whole has displayed modest growth. The S&P 500 index increased by 0.88 %, reflecting a positive feeling with regard to the Trump administration and its favorable approach to businesses. This increase in the stock market market occurred after a break on January 20 due to the holidays of Martin Luther King Jr.
In addition, the US dollar index continued its downward trend, falling by 1.27 % compared to its two -year summit. It is currently negotiated above 108, which suggests potential implications for world trade, including the cryptocurrency market.
Will Trump’s actions have an impact on the cryptography market?
The lack of immediate action on January 21 left the market in suspense. Investors and supporters of cryptography are impatiently waiting to see if Trump will implement policies that could benefit from digital assets. It is hoped that the president’s pro-Crypto position will lead to positive changes such as favorable regulations for cryptocurrency minors and clearer orientations on the regulatory framework for digital currencies.
If Trump takes significant measures in favor of cryptography, it could be a pivotal moment for the market. The potential of favorable legislation, including plans such as the Bitcoin Strategic Reserve, could stimulate cryptographic actions and offer the essential certainty to the sector.
For the moment, the market remains cautious, many investors in cryptography monitoring any sign of movement from the new administration. Until then, cryptographic actions and the entire sector will probably remain volatile while sailing in an uncertain regulatory landscape.
