Following President Donald Trump’s announcement of his intent to create a Crypto Strategic Reserve, certain digital assets saw their prices rocket—only to collapse in the ensuing days.
For example, Bitcoin, the most popular crypto in the world, rose by 10%. XRP jumped 33%, and AdA rocketed by 65%. But prices soon retreated, leaving some to wonder if it was just another trading opportunity as increases could not hold.
Petr Kozyakov, co-founder and CEO at Mercuryo, a payment infrastructure platform in the digital asset sector, believes that greater detail on what precisely a Crypto Reserve entails could bring the crypto bulls back to the table.
“After a turbulent week of trading, Bitcoin has sharply rebounded to the $90,000 mark ahead of this Friday’s inaugural Crypto Summit. Renewed optimism that US President Donald Trump will make the announcement of a Bitcoin reserve strategy is triggering a wave of buy orders for the king of crypto. A road map forward towards a crypto strategic reserve and a model for how it would be structured will be foremost in the minds of industry leaders attending the summit. The prospect of such a monumental move is bullish and may turn sentiment around in a digital token space still reeling from the recent hack of the Bybit exchange, the biggest of all time, and an implosion of the meme coin sector.”
The Crypto Summit is scheduled to take place this Friday. Hopefully, there will be some announcements providing clarity on the intent of the gathering. Meanwhile, Bitcoin is trading below $90,000 – well below its ATH over $106,000.
