This post was written by Josh Lynch Crypto rally fades despite Trump's new promises about a US reserve A rally in digital assets faded Monday despite new promises from Donald Trump about a US strategic reserve of cryptocurrencies. Crypto stocks rally as Trump touts new strategic crypto reserve Crypto-related stocks, including Coinbase (COIN), Riot (RIOT), and Strategy (MSTR) — previously known as MicroStrategy — moved to the upside on Monday after President Donald Trump announced a strategic crypto reserve. The reserve will include digital assets such as bitcoin (BTC-USD), ethereum (ETH-USD), XRP (XRP-USD), Solana (SOL-USD), and Cardano (ADA-USD). Managing director of CoinDesk Indices Andy Baehr joins Morning Brief to discuss his outlook on the reserve. Baehr emphasizes that the digital assets beyond bitcoin mentioned for the reserve weren't "arbitrarily picked," though they were "a surprise" to investors. "It's a great step forward in the last of a series of very crypto-positive news in the United States," he says, though he cautions that all the details related to this reserve are "way in the future," describing this announcement as more of "an intent." While investors were primarily focused on bitcoin, Baehr believes the addition of other cryptocurrencies and indexing the crypto in the reserve was the right approach. He concludes, "It's very positive. A summit that goes beyond bitcoin shows that the United States, as the president said, wants to be the crypto capital of the world."
