Donald Trump just made his boldest statement about cryptocurrency yet: “I want crypto.” As Bitcoin regains momentum, the president is calling on the United States to lead the digital asset revolution or risk letting China take control.
Trump: “Cryptocurrency is important, popular and exciting”
During an impassioned appearance on NBC's Meet the Press , Trump declared : “I want cryptocurrency. It's important, it's popular, it's exciting.”
He pointed out that cryptocurrencies have outperformed traditional assets during the economic downturn and emphasized the urgent need for U.S. leadership in crypto. Without quick action, Trump warned, China could dominate the future of digital finance.
Biden's mixed signals on crypto
Trump takes aim at Biden administration's shifting stance, criticizing early crackdown on crypto companies. Now, as the election approaches, he claims Biden is trying to use crypto as a political bargaining chip.
The story fits into Trump’s broader strategy of positioning himself as a pro-innovation, pro-crypto candidate, especially as cryptocurrency regulation in the United States becomes a hot-button issue.
TRUMP Token Scandal Heats Up
A recent controversy added fuel to the fire. Trump’s meme coin, $TRUMP , surged more than 50% in value after a private dinner invitation was issued to the top 220 token holders. Critics called it a “pay-to-play” scandal, while Trump brushed it off:
“I haven’t even looked at it,” he declared in a recent interview, adding that he donated his entire presidential salary.
Despite his denials, lawmakers are still demanding answers.
Senator Elizabeth Warren and Representative Adam Schiff have raised ethical concerns.
Even Senator Cynthia Lummis, a prominent cryptocurrency advocate, said the situation is raising alarm bells.
Will there be a second Trump Token?
Meanwhile, rumors about X are spreading rapidly. Some traders believe that Trump may launch a second cryptocurrency token, with potential names like WLFI or TRUTCHCOIN.
These hints are said to come from documents related to Trump’s World Freedom Project. The timing is suspicious—altcoins are down 5–10%, and many suspect an insider move related to Trump’s next crypto move.
Trump's Crypto Playbook: Geopolitics Meets Markets
Whether Trump holds cryptocurrency or not remains unclear. But one thing is certain: his pro-crypto message is strategic.
With concerns about inflation, rising tariffs, and investor fears on the rise, Trump is positioning cryptocurrency as a patriotic solution. His message is clear:
“Lead the Crypto Revolution… or Lose It to China.”
