Trump Vows to Make U.S. the ‘Undisputed Bitcoin Superpower’

Trump: U.S. Will Be the Bitcoin Superpower

President Donald Trump has doubled down on his commitment to Bitcoin and crypto, vowing to make the United States the “undisputed Bitcoin superpower” and the “crypto capital of the world.”

Speaking virtually at the Blockworks Digital Asset Summit 2025 in New York, Trump reiterated key promises:

• The U.S. will not sell confiscated Bitcoin.

• He will end regulatory operations like Operation Chokepoint 2.0.

• He envisions America leading the next era of blockchain innovation and financial sovereignty.

“Together we will make America the undisputed Bitcoin superpower and the crypto capital of the world.”

While no new details were shared on government BTC purchases, the announcement added fuel to Bitcoin’s upward momentum.

Bitcoin Reclaims $86K on Fed Momentum

Following favorable macroeconomic signals from the Federal Reserve, BTC/USD climbed back above $86,000, reaching a two-week high. 

According to data from TradingView, Bitcoin:

• Reclaimed its 200-day simple moving average (SMA), often seen as a critical bull market support.

• Is now testing its 200-day exponential moving average (EMA) as new support.

Crypto analyst Rekt Capital commented on this bullish trend shift:

“Bitcoin has most recently Daily Closed above the 200 EMA and is now retesting it into new support.”

He also pointed to a breakout on the Relative Strength Index (RSI):

“Bitcoin has broken the Daily RSI Downtrend dating back to November 2024.”

These moves suggest renewed investor confidence, particularly after weeks of price consolidation.

Macro Outlook: Will the Rally Hold?

Despite the bullish reaction, analysts remain cautious.

Trading firm QCP Capital warned that markets may be underestimating the Fed’s hawkish signals:

• Growth projections were cut to 1.7%.

• Inflation forecasts rose to 2.8%, signaling a risk of stagflation.

• The Fed's dot plot showed more officials expect no rate cuts in 2025, up from December.

“Beyond the immediate excitement, the Fed’s tone was notably cautious,” QCP wrote. “Will the rally sustain, or will investors wake up to the reality that risks remain firmly in play?”

The CME FedWatch Tool shows rate cuts are not expected before June, keeping monetary conditions tight.

Bitcoin's Role in a Changing Financial Landscape

With Trump’s pro-crypto agenda and increasing mainstream recognition, Bitcoin’s narrative as a geopolitical and financial asset is gaining ground.

As the U.S. leans further into Bitcoin policy, the global market will be watching closely to see:

• Whether institutional capital follows policy support.

• If Bitcoin can maintain momentum amid macro headwinds.
