The US Strategic Crypto Reserve is expected to be the key discussion point in the summit with an expected heated debate around which crypto is to be allocated in which ratio. Bitcoin is expected to grab a lion's share, but other cryptocurrencies too are likely to find decent allocations in the reserve.
The crypto accumulation and promotion policy is likely to get major attention in the summit. Further, made-in-America coins are also expected to get a major boost.
Crypto regulations would be a major discussion point in the summit with a possibility that the crypto markets would see multiple regulators providing joint regulations like we saw in the FIT-21 act.
Only one of the two US-based stablecoins (USDC) found a place in the MiCA regulated European blockchain and crypto markets. Trump's current tariff policy indicates that there could be some possible sanctions if MiCA continues to favor local businesses via its policy.
Bitcoin was the initial cryptocurrency for which the idea of having a reserve started. When Bitcoin accumulation starts, it is expected to cross its ATH of $109k within a few weeks.
Ethereum was probably included in the reserve because of its central role in crypto markets. As accumulation starts by the US Government, Ethreum is expected to cross $4,000 within Q2 of 2025.
Brad Garlinghouse played a key role in XRP's inclusion in the US Crypto Reserve and even sparked a controversial debate in the markets. We expect XRP to cross $7 as crypto accumulation starts.
Solana got a place in the US Crypto Reserve due to its role in acting as the mothership of all memecoin launched (including $TRUMP) and also based on its future potential of serving almost all crypto applications, be it DeFi, RWA or DePIN (e.g., Jambo). Upon the start of accumulation, we expect Solana to cross $200 within Q2 2025.
Despite Cardano being an asset in the US Crypto Reserve, its founder Charles Hoskinson, was not invited to the Crypto Summit. Nevertheless, Cardano saw a 45% rally amid whale accumulation in the last 7 days due to this inclusion and is expected to cross $1.5 as soon as accumulation starts.
Hedera is a futuristic blockchain technology that enables vast amounts of transactions in a fraction of time because its network works in a multi-directional (DAG) format and not in a linear fashion like most blockchains. If Hedera is included in the reserve, we might see an accelerated growth towards $0.45 levels.
Algorand is the only major quantum-proof blockchain made in the USA and is scalable effortlessly without the need for a Layer-2. Being developed by MIT professor Silvio Micali and associates, Algorand sees a major possibility of inclusion in the US Crypto reserve.
Stellar Lumens could be a crypto in the US Strategic Reserves because it is a very close competitor of XRP, which is already in the reserve and acts as a top choice for cross-border transfers.
Litecoin could act as a major provider of cross-border transactions in the future along with Ripple's XRPL blockchain. The best case about Litecoin is that has demonstrated already this capability with LTC Pay. In the last few weeks, Litecoin was heavily accumulated by whales ($130 million). Surprisingly, this accumulation was similar to Cardano's accumulation ($420 million), an asset confirmed to be in the reserves.
Chainlink could also find a position in the US Crypto Reserves because it is the largest and the most prevalent blockchain oracle in the realm of blockchain technology. Chainlink is also a major provider of cross-chain asset transfers through its CCIP technology. If Chainlink finds a place in the US Strategic Crypto Reserve, its price could cross $50 in a few weeks.
