Will the US token trend lead the entire crypto market into altseason?

[KryptoBull]

Recently, it seems the crypto community's attention has been focused on the political actions of the US government, specifically President Trump. It's great that Trump has fulfilled almost all his promises related to crypto, except for taking crypto to the moon. However, unfortunately, these have been overshadowed by concerns about trade wars and the risk of financial recession. The market really needs a big enough event to break this atmosphere of skepticism and fear.

In this context, tokens originating from the US are mentioned more frequently, especially since Trump mentioned XRP, SOL, and ADA for the crypto reserve fund ^[1]. Eric Trump also stated that US tokens would provide tax-free benefits for crypto investors ^[2], and even Coinmarketcap has a separate list of "Made in USA tokens" ^[3]. It seems everything is ready for a US token explosion when needed.

However, David Sacks said that XRP, SOL, and ADA were only mentioned by Trump because they are top coins in the market in terms of marketcap, nothing special ^[4]. This sounds quite reasonable, but when we carefully observe on Coinmarketcap: besides BTC, ETH, USDT, and USDC, we have the following tokens in descending order of capitalization: XRP (138B) - BNB (86B) - SOL (69B) - ADA (26B).

I'm keeping an eye on BNB: its market cap is nearly equal to the combined market cap of SOL and ADA, yet it wasn't mentioned by Trump. This is clearly unusual, and David Sacks might be trying to hide something, like Trump only mentioning the top coins on the Made in US tokens list, and Binance's BNB isn't on that list, so Trump didn't mention it.

Conspiracy theories are everywhere, and I love thinking about them when the boring market gives us a break and lets us look for interesting stories about the market itself. I think the market needs more momentum to break out, and I won't pass up an opportunity with US tokens if this trend explodes soon. I still remember the rise of Made in China tokens right after Hong Kong was allowed by China to experiment with crypto, many investors made huge profits by seizing that opportunity.

I'd like to know your opinion on this:

• Do you have any expectations for the success of Made in US tokens in the near future?
• Are you currently holding or looking to invest in any Made in US tokens?
• Are you still waiting for the altseason to continue?

Do you have any expectations for the success of Made in US tokens in the near future?

I am expecting success from others coins also but in a way I can gamble with them. Like buy them after a long bear market and sell them after a long bull market just like other altcoins.

Are you currently holding or looking to invest in any Made in US tokens?

I am not currently holding any altcoins. They are all the same to me. Pump during bull run and dump during bear market.

Are you still waiting for the altseason to continue?

No. The altseason is in 2024 and the beginning of 2025 and the period has gone.

Of your list, I only have SOL right now, but I had some ADA that I already sold at 1 USD

I'm a little unsure whether Made in USA coins will be relevant in the future
I don't know how beneficial it will be for a company to have a base in the USA and what advantages they can have over others, and the only thing that comes to mind now is to be part of the reserve of value, but I believe that in a short time only BTC will be on that list

1.  I'm open to all trends in this market. Made in US tokens is also a trend being talked about, replacing DeFi and AI. I'm looking forward to their success under the positive impact of new policies under President Trump.

2.  I currently have XRP and ADA in my portfolio. Besides that, ETH is always there. Those are top coins and worth my investment and hold to target.

3.  I continue to believe in the repetition of history until we have a new history, meaning altseason will still happen like in previous cycles. The success of ALTs is a necessary condition to maintain market volatility in subsequent cycles by keeping investors around to seek huge profits.

I expect US-made tokens to succeed because they are heavily backed by the US government and have plenty of time to achieve significant growth under this administration.

Unfortunately, I don't have enough capital to hold any US-made tokens, but if I get enough liquidity, I might buy XRP and SOL because I see a promising future for them.

1. Do you have any expectations for the success of Made in US tokens in the near future?

In case some of these Made in USA coins/tokens will make it to the Strategic Reserve and the government will already have the budget to buy them then maybe we can expect their dramatic rise in terms of price. However, until then there is nothing to expect here except some sporadic little upward movements.

2. Are you currently holding or looking to invest in any Made in US tokens?

I am not holding any of these coins as am more into Bitcoin as of the moment though if someone will be gifting me some millions or I would win in the lottery then I would seriously look into them.

3. Are you still waiting for the altseason to continue?

Yes, I am still waiting for the altseason to come and conquer the market. Unfortunately, day by day am seeing the chance getting slimmer and I am now doubting the historical precedents as they might not be applicable this year.

We know BNB is a Chinese coin, not an American one, so Trump mentioning it is a long shot. Trump also has a better relationship with the American crypto community, since they were the ones who donated a lot of money to help Trump win the election.

Made in US tokens have a great chance of success in the rest of this year. First, I'm waiting for spot ETFs for them, and then for the US to invest in these tokens, causing their prices to skyrocket.

I think those made in US tokens really need the government to back them up, like putting them in that strategic reserve thing. Without it, I dont see their prices jumping much. Right now, I'm all about stacking bitcoin, but if I had some extra cash, I might peek at these tokens after digging into them a bit. I'm still crossing my fingers for an altseason but the way the market's looking, I'm not so sure it'll hit like I hoped.

[dave_strider]

^ I am with you on that - BTC will lead the way no matter the case, all the rest of these tokens may pump, but there is no guarantee, nuh uh.

This 'made in US' is like a branding on its own. It somehow puts investor at ease because they know it already passed (or going to pass) regulatory scrutiny. Unlike before, there's a fud that coins and tokens that originated outside could be labeled and ruled as a security.

Yeah, Trump even tried to label BTC in such a manner, though of course, it just went as a phrase forgotten.

Unlike the things we see now.

At least "Made in US" is a good narrative for the crypto market that's mired in gloom. We need a narrative to get investors' attention and put money into the market with positive expectations. For example, they'll buy and hold XRP, SOL, and ADA because they believe these tokens will become valuable. Their very actions will turn their expectations into reality if they are numerous enough and have faith in the future of this trend.

The SEC has dismissed most of Gensler's absurd lawsuits. The SEC is taking a truly friendly approach to crypto so as not to hinder the natural development of this market. That's a good sign, but it's been forgotten in the negative emotions of investors.

I really think slapping a 'Made in US' tag on crypto could make people feel better about jumping in, like it's a sign everything's legit and approved by the big shots. I've noticed the SEC's been chilling out lately and that's got me hopeful people might start trusting the market more. But honestly, I don't think it's just about a cool story or label that gets me excited. It's whether people actually use it and it does something useful. I try to keep my eyes peeled for solid info and not just ride the hype wave. For me, it's all about what this stuff could do down the road not just what everyone's buzzing about today. I'm curious to see how it all shakes out.

There is still lots of talk, and fewer actions, but at least we can consider the situation to be in a great position potential-wise.

The BTC is the most important aspect of the whole debacle, though.

This is a matter of over expectation as if the market is looking at Trump and his administration dangling a magical wand that can make things like an express or a kind of a Superman. We should remember that for the last four years under Biden there had never been good talks and plans involving cryptocurrency and in fact that previous administration had been at war with the industry in many fronts...and we are seeing so many changes on the horizon. As to the "Made in USA" coins am not so sure if they can be able to inject the energy needed to pave the way to the much-waited altseason.
