Top 5 crypto charts that define Trump’s first 100 days in office

Crypto prices retreated in the first 100 days of Trump’s administration as his tariff policies impacted market sentiment. Bitcoin ( BTC ) and most altcoins have dropped even as Donald Trump’s administration implemented positive policies, including supportive moves on crypto reserves. The Securities and Exchange Commission has ended lawsuits against prominent companies, including Uniswap ( UNI ), Coinbase, and Ripple Labs. However, crypto prices have fallen mainly due to macro factors, as Trump reignited a trade war with countries like Canada, Mexico, and China. This article highlights the top 5 crypto charts that have defined Donald Trump’s first 100 days in office. Crypto market cap has crashed by 14.7% The first chart below shows that the broader crypto market has significantly lagged behind the stock market since Trump took office. The total market capitalization of all cryptocurrencies has dropped by 14.7%, compared to declines of 6.9% for the S&P 500 and 7.9% for the Nasdaq 100. This performance is notable, considering Trump campaigned on being the “most pro-crypto president” in U.S. history, and his policies have been largely supportive. On a positive note, the crypto market cap has recovered somewhat, rising from $2.39 trillion earlier this month to $2.9 trillion.
