United States President Donald Trump recently announced that the President’s Working Group on Digital Assets has been directed to include XRP ( $1.19 ) ( XRP ( $1.19 ) ), Solana (SOL), and Cardano ( $0.19 ) ’s ADA (ADA) in the crypto strategic reserve.

Trump previously promised to establish a “strategic national Bitcoin ( $75,732.00 ) stockpile” at the Bitcoin ( $75,732.00 ) 2024 conference in Nashville, Tennessee. Trump told the audience during his keynote speech:

“If I am elected, it will be the policy of my Administration — the United States of America — to keep 100% of all the Bitcoin ( $75,732.00 ) the government currently holds or acquires into the future. We will keep a hundred percent.”

“I hope you do well, at least. This will serve, in effect, as the core of the Strategic national Bitcoin ( $75,732.00 ) stockpile,” the President continued.

The US President’s language on a Bitcoin ( $75,732.00 ) strategic stockpile has shifted following his January 23 executive order directing the group to establish a “digital asset stockpile,” which angered Bitcoin ( $75,732.00 ) maximalists.

Trump signs executive order, but it isn’t what Bitcoin ( $75,732.00 ) maximalists expected

President Trump signed the executive order directing the Working Group on Digital Assets to study the feasibility of a national crypto reserve and to explore a regulatory framework for stablecoins.

The executive order also banned the research and development of a central bank digital currency (CBDC) in the United States.

Following the Jan. 23 order, Bitcoin ( $75,732.00 ) maximalists vented their frustration with the vague language of the order and the potential inclusion of other digital assets in the reserve.
