The cryptocurrency market has experienced significant shifts following Donald Trump's return to the U.S. presidency. His administration has adopted a pro-crypto stance, introducing policies aimed at fostering growth in the sector. Trump's executive order has made cryptocurrency a national priority, leading to increased optimism among investors. The overall cryptocurrency market capitalization has surged to $3.62 trillion, surpassing Microsoft's valuation of $3.085 trillion and positioning it as the second most valuable asset class after Apple. Bitcoin's price has exceeded $100,000 for the first time, and Ethereum has also seen a rise in value. However, the market has also faced challenges, including a $35.20 billion drop in the meme coin sector over 26 days, with losses led by DOGE, SHIB, and PEPE. AI-driven meme coin AI16Z lost $1.72 billion during this period. Trump's official meme coin, TRUMP, retains a market cap of $4.02 billion. The administration has proposed a zero capital gains tax for U.S. crypto companies and approved a Bitcoin ETF in 2024. The regulatory approach is expected to provide clarity and further boost the sector, while some tariffs and trade policies have raised concerns about broader economic impacts.
