Bitcoin was trading at $90,573.10 at 11:07 p.m. (IST) on Monday, March 3. On Sunday, the benchmark cryptocurrency jumped over the $95,000 level after United States President Donald Trump announced his plans to create a Crypto Strategic Reserve.
Bitcoin’s market capitalization dropped nearly 4.6 percent to $1.79 trillion on Monday’s crypto market session.
The cryptocurrency market as a whole, not just Bitcoin, followed Bitcoin’s lead because cryptocurrency investors saw Trump’s move as positive, which is in line with the Trump administration’s views on boosting the nation’s crypto industry.
“U.S. Crypto Reserve will elevate this critical industry after years of corrupt attacks by the Biden Administration, which is why my Executive Order on Digital Assets directed the Presidential Working Group to move forward on a Crypto Strategic Reserve that includes XRP, SOL, and ADA,” said Donald Trump in his post on Truth Social.
