We are back with our weekly cryptography summary.
If Trump’s presidency means one thing, it is because there will be no shortage of cryptographic new.
Last week, the newly inaugurated president (as well as his family and immediate friends) continued to make the headlines in the circles of cryptography. We also witnessed notable developments in AI and Games.
Here is a summary of what happened in Crypto recently:
- Trump’s prices have shaken crypto and stock markets
- Eric Trump says that the purchase of the decrease like $ ETH has lost more than 20% in value
- Trump created the first federal wealth fund, and Lummis suggested that he could hold $ BTC
- Musk proposed to move all American cash operations on the blockchain
- Google announced an AI investment plan of $ 75 billion while its stock dropped by 10%
- Crypto players anticipate three new exciting projects
Now let’s take a zoom in a little.
1. Prices of 25% Trump shake the market
The cryptography market has faced turbulence, Bitcoin ($ BTC) briefly affecting $ 92,000 after Trump announced 25% prices on Canadian and Mexican imports.
Canada immediately imposed a counter-level, while Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum adopted a more cautious approach.
The Crypto Fear & Greed index has entered the fear area for the first time since October 2024 and has not yet recovered. The impact also struck traditional markets, the S&P 500 term contracts lowering 1.9% and the industrial average of Dow Jones decreased by 1.5%.
However, there may be more strategic depth in Trump’s pricing threats than the reactions of the immediate market suggest. More specifically, this could be an attempt to weaken the dollar while maintaining low yields, thus forcing countries to pass from short -term reserves to dollars to long -term treasury obligations.
2. Eric Trump approves $ ETH in order to recover the WLFI portfolio
Eric Trump seems to be his father’s main crypto advisor, as evidenced by his involvement in World Liberty Finance (WLFI) and the official play of the same Trump.
Last Monday, the presidential son tweeted “ This is the ideal time to add $ ETH ‘when the token was dipping some 20% (at the back of Trump’s pricing war, that is to say). The $ ETH price has increased from $ 2.3,000 to $ 2.7,000.
Eric Trump’s plea $ ETH is logical given WLFI substantial assets. The company bought more than $ 100 million in $ ETH and $ WBTC in January and $ 5 million and additional ETH last week.
With an average purchase price of $ of $ 3.3,000, WLFI is currently faced with an unrealized loss of approximately $ 31 million.
3. Trump creates a sovereign wealth fund, $ BTC in Fors
Trump has signed an executive decree to establish the first Federal Federal Federal Fund. Senator Cynthia Lummis then tweeted that it was an “agreement”, with Bitcoin ₿, referring to an upcoming $ BTC investment.
Unlike traditional strategic reserves which focus on stable assets, sovereign funds have the flexibility to diversify into more dynamic investments – such as crypto.
This approach would reflect the strategy of the sovereign heritage fund of Norway, which already has an indirect exposure to BTC thanks to investments in companies like Microstrategy.
While Alaska and Texas have successfully exploited sovereign funds at the level of the state for some time, it is an unexplored territory for the federal government.
4. Musk wants to move the US Treasure of 1.5 t $ on the blockchain
Musk shrouded with his proposal to put the American treasure on the blockchain – all 1.5 t $. We are talking about a blockchain that would manage everything, from social security checks to payroll checks for federal employees.
In accordance with the DOGE mission, this would make cash management more effective and improve transparency, as you could follow each dollar that the government spends.
However, many are skeptical about the idea.
Be that as it may, this transition would force federal employees more than 3m to start using blockchain technology and push the adoption of cryptography at levels never seen before.
5. The “small” $ 75 billion in investment of $ 75 billion have Wall Street rattles
The CEO of Google, Sundar Pichai, plans to invest $ 75 billion in AI, which he called a “small expenditure”.
It is clear that AI occupies the front of Google’s strategy, in particular the share of revenues of $ 95 billion in the company last year was linked to the services related to the AI.
While Google’s annual income increased by 12%, Wall Street seemed nervous about this spending plan, which reduced the ALPHABET INC. 10%actions.
However, Google has no other option to stay ahead of the Silicon Valley AI race. Microsoft is not far behind with its $ 80 billion infrastructure plan. Meta and Amazon also pour substantial resources into AI.
Capital entries in the AI sector mean that coins and AI agent’s tokens could be increasing this year.
6. New crypto game: Super Bowl NFTS, GTA 6, Stepmania
In other crypto news, Mythical Games has launched a Super Bowl promotion for NFL competitors, its mobile football game NFT. The two -week event includes 30 new players from Kansas City Chiefs and Philadelphia Eagles.
Meanwhile, the adin ross and faze banks streamers plan to create a personalized crypto server for the next GTA 6. However, they could face challenges given the ban on Rockstar Games in 2022 on the crypto and NFT in GTA online servers.
In other news from Game Crypto, a new Move-to-Great Fitness application (M2E), Stepmania, is now available on Telegram. It is inspired by Stepn, a 2021 m2th game which attracted users of 5.6 million with its NFT mechanics and unique sneakers.
7. Mind of Pepe ($ mind) could benefit from the Trump AI and Policy Race
Trump’s pro-Crypto strategy, shared by Eric Trump and Elon Musk, is optimistic for the entire Altcoin sector. This is particularly true for AI tokens like Mind of Pepe ($ mind) in light of the current breed of Big Tech AI.
Mind of Pepe is a self-televised agent that works on Ethereum. He can analyze market data, provide exclusive information to his token holders, get involved in discussions on social networks and even launch his own projects (including crypto games).
Currently in presale, a $ Mind token costs $ 0.0032924, but the price will increase in 14 hours. The project has collected $ 5.6 million so far, and the first adopters have marked the 859B tokens at 407% APY.
After $ Mind touched the field in progress and lists on Dex, he could increase 10x, especially now that Eric Trump approved Ethereum ecosystem.
This week in crypto – the bottom
This week, all eyes are on Trump’s cryptography agenda and the AI sector. The effect of federal policy decisions on market movements is undeniable, so we can only hope that the days to come will bring good news.
Uncertainty obliges investors to seek projects focused on public services like Mind of Pepe. Its information on the market supported by data and its capacity to launch new projects independently makes it one of the best presses in 2025.
As always, however, be sure to Dyor and keep a fresh head. The current cryptography market is extremely volatile, so diversify your portfolio and only invest you can lose.
