On March 2, 2025, American president Donald Trump announced the creation of a “strategic reserve of cryptocurrencies” specifically including XRP (Ripple), soil (Solana) and ADA (Cardano), BTC (Bitcoin) and ETH (Ethereum). This initiative aims to strengthen crypto industry in the United States, after Trump describes “corrupt attacks” from the previous administration.
Donald Trump officially announces the crypto reserve in the United States!
This announcement is worthy of a film because at the start, Donald Trump had not mentioned Bitcoin or Ethereum in this ad. BTC supporters and other Crypto investors immediately thought of an unexpected flip-flop by Trump, who would now attach more importance to XRP (Ripple), Sol (Solana) and Ada (Cardano).
Some analysts had considered that this decision by Donald Trump could be motivated by the desire to support cryptocurrencies perceived as more in line with American regulations or offering specific technological advantages. Others have even suggested that this reflects a “America First” strategy aimed at favoring locally developed digital assets. Because, XRP, for example, is linked to Ripple, an American company, while Solana and Cardano are praised for their technological advances. While in fact it was only a forgetfulness on the part of the American president.
Implications for the crypto ecosystem
Even if we already expected a bitcoin reserve, Donald Trump's decision to create a strategic cryptocurrency reserve including XRP, soil, ETH and ADA could have significant implications for crypto industry in the United States. It could encourage the adoption of these digital assets and strengthen the position of the United States as a leader in the field of financial technologies. Moreover, XRP jumped 21 %, soil of 12.5 % and ADA of 37 % immediately after the announcement of Donald Trump.
Donald Trump's announcement of a crypto reserve with XRP, Sol Ada, Bitcoin and Ethereum, therefore marks an important event in the Crypto universe. Between support for local innovations and fulfilling political promises, this decision highlights the boiling.
