TechFlow news, March 4 — According to CoinDesk, market analysts believe that Trump's mention of strategic reserves for XRP, SOL, and ADA could be his usual negotiation tactic: "ask for 1000, settle at 100." Ilan Solot, Senior Global Market Strategist at Marex Solutions, stated in a client report: "This announcement might simply be part of Trump’s standard negotiation strategy—calling for a reserve including XRP, SOL, and ADA in order to ultimately secure one dominated by Bitcoin (and possibly Ethereum)."
Jason Atkins, Chief Commercial Officer at crypto market maker Auros, said the market reaction to Trump’s announcements typically unfolds in three phases: rumor phase, exaggerated announcement phase, and difficult negotiation phase. He warned that given congressional approval remains an obstacle, the actual timing of fund flows remains uncertain, and the risk of leveraged positions being liquidated is still high.
Jeff Park, Head of Alpha Strategies at Bitwise Investment Management, commented on X: "When you include altcoins whose use cases are too nascent to qualify as 'national strategies,' even if purely hypothetical, you risk appearing to engage in insider trading. That’s politically damaging—even among parts of the crypto enthusiast community."
