It turns out that Trump’s promise to make crypto a national priority wasn’t just empty talk.
Yesterday he signed the first crypto executive order, which lists several large Commitments:
- To stop the prosecution of companies and individuals for engaging in lawful crypto activities
- To support the development of dollar-backed stablecoins
- Introducing clear regulations for digital assets that would spur innovation
- To stop the creation of central bank digital currencies (CBDCs).
Trump also launched the President’s Working Group on Digital Asset Markets, led by AI and crypto czar David Sacks.
The working group’s agenda includes, among other things, assessing the possibility of creating a “national stockpile of digital assets.” Note that there is no mention of $BTC, so we may see altcoins like $ETH, $XRP or $AAVE in the mix.
The icing on the cake? The SEC has repealed anti-crypto bill SAB 121, which imposed strict accounting standards for crypto firms.
The bottom line is that crypto has a bright future ahead of it, so now is the time to expand your portfolio.
Here’s our educated guess on the next big cryptocurrency with a potential for a 100x return.
1. MIND of Pepe ($MIND) provides trading insights without human bias
Trump expects AI to be his golden goose this year, as evidenced by his recent $500 billion investment in Stargate, a joint venture between OpenAI, Oracle and Softbank.
For the crypto community, this means one thing: investing in AI tokens.
MIND of Pepe ($MIND) is one of the best early-stage AI agent tokens that is quickly gaining momentum. The project grossed $3.4 million in presales in its first two weeks. One $MIND costs $0.0031889 now, but the price will rise tomorrow.
$MIND is an autonomous agent that analyzes market data to provide exclusive insights to its token holders. It can also participate in conversations and launch its own tokens, which are only available to early adopters.
And since $MIND is free of human bias, its trading recommendations should, in theory, be more effective. Without fear or greed to cloud his judgment, $MIND was able to identify and capitalize on market trends with great precision.
2. The Meme Index ($MEMEX) provides safe access to the $21 billion meme coin market
Meme coins are another sector that is likely to flourish under Trump’s administration. The hard part is finding meme coins that explode.
Meme Index ($MEMEX) simplifies this with four baskets that take into account different risk appetites. Essentially, you invest in eight meme coins instead of one to spread risk and offset potential losses.
Real Degens will prefer the Frenzy index, which contains new tokens that could compete with the heavyweights. If you prefer to play it safe, choose the Titan index with established coins like $DOGE, $SHIB and $PEPE.
One $MEMEX costs $0.0154693, and early backers have purchased $2.8 million worth of tokens so far.
First movers have two advantages: an APY of 826% and governance rights. $MEMEX holders can vote on decisions regarding new features, community initiatives, and cart content. If you want to get in early, check out our Meme Index price prediction and our guide to buying $MEMEX for more information.
3. Virtuals Protocol ($VIRTUAL) is riding the AI agent wave with 23 of the top 100 tokens on board
Virtuals Protocol ($VIRTUAL) has one advantage over other AI tokens: it is an AI agent launchpad. 23 of the top 100 AI agent tokens run on Virtuals, including $AIXBT, $GAME, $SEKOIA and $FREYA.
The logic is simple: as long as the AI agent frenzy continues and users launch their own tokens, demand for $VIRTUAL will grow. Even if most of these tokens go down, their issuers will have to buy something VIRTUAL first.
$VIRTUAL has grown 26,009% since its launch in December 2023 and has become the second-largest AI agent token by market cap, right after $FET.
The token fell to $2.63 from its all-time high (ATH) of $5.07 recorded on January 2nd. However, this decline represents an attractive buying opportunity as $VIRTUAL is likely to see even more upside in 2025.
4. XDC Network ($XDC) aims to lead enterprise adoption of cryptocurrencies
XDC Network integrates public and private blockchains to digitize and streamline business processes and software development. It can automate letters of credit, cross-border payments and data management, among other things.
The ecosystem’s native token, $XDC, is now actively recovering from the bear market of 2023. On January 16, it hit $0.16, just 18% away from its 2021 ATH of $0.19, but has been since then decreased to $0.11.
Additionally, XDC Networks’ TVL (Total Value Locked) reached a record $38.25 million last week. This indicates an increase in institutional adoption of XDC network-based protocols.
Given the pro-crypto stance of the new presidential administration, we can expect even more companies to integrate blockchain into their processes, which would fuel the growth of $XDC.
January 23 – Future National Crypto Day?
The crypto market has come a long way and January 23rd could well become National Crypto Day in the US.
We expect Trump’s crypto executive order to encourage innovation, drive blockchain adoption, and spark a broader bull market in 2025.
However, we would like to remind you that favorable market conditions do not guarantee the success of individual projects. DYOR, diversify your portfolio and never invest more than you can afford to lose.
