šØāš¼ Trump on Crypto: Top 5 Moments so far
This week marked Trumpās first week in officeāand it was eventful.
Some of the action was directly tied to him, while other events were more peripheral.
Either way, hereās the top 5 moments so far:
1. The US Government is dedicating $500 billion to AI infrastructure
What does that mean, exactly? Think massive data centresālike the one planned for Texasāthat could eventually house an artificial general intelligence. š

2. The SEC has unveiled a new pro-crypto task force.
Dubbed āSEC Crypto 2.0,ā this agency-wide initiative. Crypto 2.0 will clear up confusion and offer clarity for the crypto industry.

The task force is led by pro-crypto SEC commissioner Hester Peirce.
The SEC made a statement saying it "can do better." š

3. The Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) just launched its website.
True to its name, the site keeps it simple with just a title and a picture of a Dogecoin.

@watcher.guru
$DOGE, $DOGEGOV to the moon š
4. Ross Ulbricht, founder of Silk Road, has been pardoned and released.
At 26, he created a website that forever changed Bitcoin.
At 29, he was sentenced to spend the rest of his life in prison.
Now, after 10 years behind bars, Donald Trump has pardoned him.

@free_ross
The same system that imprisoned Ross now embraces the technology he helped pioneer.
5. World Liberty Financial, the Trump-owned DeFi platform, is still buying $ETH.
The World Liberty token wallet keeps expanding, now holding up to $186 million in $ETH. Just 20 minutes ago, they added another $5 million worth of Ethereum.

@ianheinishmma
Extremely bullish for $ETH and Ethereum-based tokensš
Overall? Trumpās start in office is looking very bullish for crypto.

What is Crypto (Matt)
Trump and AI
Trump is pouring 500 billion into AI - AI is undoubtedly the tech of the future - America will lead the way with crypto and other nations will follow - to me AI as a narrative makes so much sense - there has never been a more bullish outlook for crypto IMO - thereās a crazy amount of fear in the markets currently - and the short term might go up might go down - but over the next 1-6 weeks, I expect an enormous inflow of capital - A Bitcoin strategic reserve and other nations getting their hands dirty in the trenches ššµš» donāt get shaken out.

š©ļøNavigating the Storm: BTC Drops, Market Moves, and Staying Ahead
It seems like a lot of people here are feeling the impact of this recent BTC drop.
That said, Iād guess not many actually own any BTC.
This is why itās so important to understand that when BTC drops, everything else tends to follow.
My content might not be as exciting as the next 10x low-cap gem, but itās all about providing clarity on the overall market direction and knowing when to take on more risk or dial it back.
My goal is to help you figure out when itās a good time to buy and when it might make sense to sell and reduce risk.
So, take a look at the content, or at least read the summaries on what BTC is doing.
On that note, we might see a bounce here, but thereās still a strong chance of more downsideāso plan accordingly with your current positions. Donāt go all in right now with new positions thinking weāve hit the bottom.
Less trades, with more size allows for better trade management.
In addition, over the coming weeks I'm going to release a spreadsheet that has all my main open positions, with % portfolio allocation.
This will be updated as positions are updated, so you can follow along. This will include stable coin allocation.
I think transparency is key when navigating these markets, and I think it will prevent days like today hurting some of you so badly.
Stay safe, GL.
Stay on top with a quick BTC and ETH Market Update š

Iām Back!

I'm back from holiday and back on the charts š
Itās been a crazy couple of weeks in the marketāif you managed to buy this dip, massive congratulations! If youāre all out of dry powder, HODL. The game plan hasnāt changed.
Iām currently reevaluating my positions and scouting for fresh opportunities. But in the meantime, here are some closing thoughts: š
Enjoying the ride yet? š¢
This cycle is truly one of a kind. And crypto volatility is only going to ramp up this year.
The past week has been a rollercoasterāTrump and Melania memecoins, the inauguration, and a market glued to every move he makes.
While progress has been slow, credible voices within both the administration and the crypto space suggest that big moves are on the horizon. Looking ahead, Iām optimistic about 2025, which is shaping up to be a strong, Bitcoin-led year.

Keep praying for those green candles š
My stance is that currently thereās a chance of one final shakeout, but I believe weāre transitioning into an "up only" phase that could last several weeks through February and March.
Hopefully, by the end of the month, Trump will clarify his stance on Bitcoin and crypto, bringing some much-needed direction. Until then, sitting tight in spot positions is the safest play.
Stay focused, zoom out, and avoid the trap of panic. The future looks brightāstay the course and donāt get shaken out. Thereās still plenty of bull run left ahead.š
