Trump goes all-in on crypto

In June 2026, stablecoin transaction volume hit a record $1.79 trillion, proof that blockchain money keeps pouring in. Donald Trump just called himself a big crypto guy, saying the US must lead or China will take the industry.

"If we don't have it, China is going to have it," he told the crowd, adding he only changed his mind after watching crypto grow into a huge industry. Trump also slammed the previous administration for what he called a violent crackdown on crypto, saying regulators tried to kill it with investigations and enforcement.

Now he's hinting that crypto could soon play a bigger role in his Trump Account savings program, keeping investors watching closely. Analysts point out Ethereum's fundamentals are strengthening too, with one expert predicting it could eventually power trillions in tokenized assets.

Vivek Raman even set a long-term price target of $250,000 for Ethereum, arguing the market still has plenty of room to grow. With Trump's support, record stablecoin usage, and Ethereum's momentum, the next phase of the crypto bull market could already be underway.
