On Mar. 2, Trump directed the President’s Working Group on Digital Asset Markets to create a reserve comprising key cryptocurrencies. While initial reports highlighted assets like Ripple ( XRP ), Solana ( SOL ), and Cardano ( ADA ), Trump later clarified that Bitcoin ( BTC ) and Ethereum would be central to the initiative. The move has sparked controversy, with some claiming that the reserve may increase the value of assets owned by Trump and his associates. According to reports, Trump and his cronies own more than 60% of WLFI, which raises questions regarding a potential conflict of interest. However, The Trump Organization claims that the president has distanced himself from commercial activities and has denied any misconduct.

Despite these assurances, watchdog groups remain skeptical, pointing to past instances where Trump’s business and political interests appeared intertwined.
