Bitcoin, Ethereum and Solana Falling as Trump US Crypto Reserve Hype Cools
Bitcoin, Ethereum, and other major cryptocurrencies surged in value Sunday as President Donald Trump signaled plans for which assets could be included in a proposed U.S. crypto reserve. But Bitcoin has already shed thousands of dollars worth of gains on Monday, with other assets starting to fade as well.
Following a nearly $4,000 rapid drop that took the price back below $90,000 on Monday, Bitcoin is currently priced at $90,529 as of this writing. It’s still showing a nearly 4% rise over the past day, but is down after nearly touching $95,000 on Sunday.
That said, Bitcoin has recovered substantial ground since dipping below the $79,000 mark on Friday.
Ethereum is back just below $2,300 after rising above $2,500 on Sunday, while XRP, Solana, and Cardano—the three other assets that Trump said would comprise a planned U.S. reserve—have likewise given up some of their towering gains from Sunday.
