Since Trump took office, stocks are down and bitcoin has plunged. What’s going on?

As investors brace for uncertainty, they are likely moving away from stocks into safer assets like government bonds and dumping risky assets like cryptocurrencies: Bitcoin, which surged as high as $106,000 around Trump’s inauguration, is down about 16% in the past month, trading around $88,000 on Tuesday.

Investors entered the New Year cheerful about the prospects of a business- and crypto-friendly Trump administration. Yet two months into 2025, US stocks have lagged Europe and Chinese stocks, bitcoin is sliding and concerns about inflation are mounting.

[Hey Julian!]

Copped some BTC when it was close to $80k. Gonna grab some more Solana as well. Started doing all my daily spending with my Cashapp card about a month ago once I realized they give you free BTC round ups. I’ve gotten about $150 in free BTC round ups since then. It’s crazy how you can game the system too. When I get my Starbucks which usually comes out to $4.78, I tip .23 cents to make it $5.01 get a .99 cents round up. The math usually works out better than the 1.5% cash back on my credit card. I generally spend less than $10 per transaction on the CashApp card.

I was randomly on Coinmarket and thought it was a glitch. So, I went to Coingecko and saw the price for ada bouncing between .70 and .85. Then I went on Twitter/X and saw the news. Still thought it was fake news until i starred seeing it from different sources.

Before that, I was debating starting to sell 20000 ada at /around the .65/.50 range. One of the few times procrastinating may actually work out.

Thanks for this boss. Been holding some ADA since what seems like BCE.

Who the fuck is still holding on that shit?
Made my couple hundo and move to the burbs on yall negroes!

They holding on because they came in too late and over paid. They are hoping it will rebound enough for them to at least break even.

Remember when the crypto bros told us Trump was the best bet for crypto?

I know right. I made the 20k sell. I still have plenty more, but I'm not really in a rush. I've held my Ada position since it was under .05.

With all the tariff shit. I was planning on slowly pulling enough out to last the next four years.

How will this get past Congress and the Senate?

I'm calling bullshit. To your point, exactly how would this work? The only way I even see this being announced ( never really happening) is if the idea was to allow crypto to crypto to be tax free. I wouldn't be mad to be wrong though.

Compared to 2017, people traded more because they thought you could treat crypto similar to houses with the 1031 exchange rule. Basically the thought was you'd be ok as long as you didn't sell into fiat.

if it turns out to be true, I hope people don't rush into crypto because of the tax benefits. The scams would increase and people will lose money.

 

[RoomService]

I even see this being announced ( never really happening) is if the idea was to allow crypto to crypto to be tax free.

Now, this is something I would like to see too. Think about it: if you permit crypto to be traded into fiat without paying taxes, it’s plausible that individuals holding shares of companies like Microsoft, Apple, Nvidia, and so on would be eager to trade their stocks for fiat without incurring capital gains tax. Therefore, I’m calling bullshit.

More like a quick lick. If long-term, what would you go with?

Last I heard he came back to the states a few years ago. He only came back because he reached an agreement with the feds.
