During the four years that Donald Trump was out of the presidency, occupied by former president Biden, he launched several NFTs and even a couple of memecoins just days before his new presidential term.<\/p>\n<p><strong>But that&#8217;s not all<\/strong>. During his campaign, Trump positioned himself as a defender of economic growth driven by cryptocurrencies. Some of his most notable promises include:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Strategic Bitcoin reserves<\/strong>: Trump suggested that the United States should lead the crypto market by accumulating Bitcoin as a strategic asset. This move would position the country as a leader in institutional adoption, though it remains a proposal without concrete actions.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Reducing regulatory barriers<\/strong>: Trump promised to eliminate regulations that limit the growth of crypto and blockchain projects, promoting the U.S. as a hub for technological innovation.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Incentives for Bitcoin mining<\/strong>: One of the most prominent promises was to reactivate crypto mining in U.S. territory, supporting the transition to renewable energy to counter environmental criticisms.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>However, his inaugural speech did not include specific mentions of Bitcoin, cryptocurrencies, or blockchain technology. This raises the question of whether these promises will be a priority or if they were simply campaign tactics to garner support from the crypto community.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_20919\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-20919\" style=\"width: 1024px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/polymarket.com\/event\/trump-cryptocurrency-executive-order-on-day-1\" target=_blank rel=\"noopener\" rel=\"noopener\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-20919 size-large\" src=\"https:\/\/www.bitnovo.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/TRUMP-exceute-order-bitcoin-probability-1-1024x380.png\" alt=\"TRUMP-exceute-order-bitcoin-probability\" width=\"1024\" height=\"380\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.bitnovo.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/TRUMP-exceute-order-bitcoin-probability-1-1024x380.png 1024w, https:\/\/www.bitnovo.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/TRUMP-exceute-order-bitcoin-probability-1-300x111.png 300w, https:\/\/www.bitnovo.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/TRUMP-exceute-order-bitcoin-probability-1-768x285.png 768w, https:\/\/www.bitnovo.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/TRUMP-exceute-order-bitcoin-probability-1-1536x570.png 1536w, https:\/\/www.bitnovo.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/TRUMP-exceute-order-bitcoin-probability-1.png 1783w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-20919\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Chart of bets on whether or not Trump would mention Bitcoin in his inaugural speech.
