Positive news continues to emerge regarding cryptocurrencies in the United States, one of the world’s largest economies. However, a significant indicator reveals that U.S. investors’ enthusiasm remains low. According to a report published by Bloomberg on Thursday night, Donald Trump may declare cryptocurrencies a national priority as soon as he takes office. Additionally, plans are underway to establish an advisory board to advocate for the political objectives of the cryptocurrency sector. There are expectations that on his first day in office, Trump will issue a presidential decree supporting the creation of a strategic Bitcoin

During his election campaign, Trump expressed his support for cryptocurrencies, despite initially adopting a cautious stance. This has created optimism regarding easier regulations and the widespread use of cryptocurrencies.

Throughout Biden’s term, various U.S. institutions imposed over 100 sanctions on the cryptocurrency sector. Trump’s promise to change this approach has generated excitement within the industry.

Recently, however, a similar pricing trend has not been observed on Coinbase. This has been interpreted as investors wanting assurance that Trump’s administration will fulfill its promises. Consequently, the optimistic expectations in the market have not fully reflected in the prices.
