Financial markets often evolve in line with political decisions, and the crypto universe is no exception. This Sunday, Donald Trump rekindled investors' attention by announcing that his crypto reserve project would include several major assets, including XRP, Solana, and Cardano. Initially, bitcoin seemed absent from this list, raising doubts about the former president's stance on it. A quick adjustment then corrected this, as he stated that bitcoin and Ethereum would obviously be included. This turnaround triggered a surge of optimism and a price spike, but the enthusiasm was short-lived. Within less than 24 hours, the market reversed. The cause was the growing concerns about the tariffs that Trump plans to impose, which rekindles fears of economic instability.
