TechFlow reports on March 3 that CryptoQuant CEO Ki Young Ju stated, "The cryptocurrency market is increasingly becoming a strategic tool for the United States. Since Trump's election, general ethical standards have declined—now anything that benefits Trump and serves U.S. national interests is no longer seen as illegal.
Although the U.S. has opened its markets without adequate regulatory safeguards against behaviors such as 'rug pulls,' one clear principle has now been established: 'Follow the Trump administration agenda and contribute to U.S. national interests.' The launch of Trump-themed meme coins symbolizes this principle.
In the end, cryptocurrencies serving U.S. national interests could ultimately disadvantage all countries outside the U.S., appearing to be a strategy aimed at dominating the crypto market and absorbing foreign capital.
This trend also negatively impacts Bitcoin and Ethereum, which strive for neutrality and aim to serve as global public goods. According to Trump’s recent statements, Bitcoin and Ethereum seem to be positioned as neither friend nor foe."
