BTC, ETH, XRP & More—Which Altcoins Stand to Gain from Trump’s Crypto Strategy?

  • An analyst has compiled a list of tokens that could record massive gains apart from Bitcoin (BTC), Ethereum (ETH), XRP, Cardano (ADA), and Solana (SOL). 
  • According to him, Avalanche (AVAX) could grab headlines as it ticks all the boxes “for all the positive price determining factors.”

The impact of US President Donald Trump on the crypto market cannot be underestimated, as his election victory in November triggered a 68% surge in the broad market cap, sending the valuation to around $2.2 trillion. Within the period, Bitcoin crossed $100k for the first time, while the likes of Solana (SOL), Cardano (ADA), and XRP made an explosive surge to reach new yearly highs, as highlighted in our previous article.

Even though the market appears to be currently struggling, analysts anticipate a bullish reversal triggered by emerging US crypto policies. The recent confirmation of a multi-token strategic reserve, for instance, saw XRP surging by 16% in just 24 hours. According to our recent update, Bitcoin (BTC), Ethereum (ETH), and other listed tokens did not disappoint either. However, an analyst identified as CryptoRank has, in the latest post, pointed out a different set of tokens that could take the market by storm.

According to CryptoRank, the next successful coins in terms of gains would be determined by multiple factors including their Exchange Traded Fund (ETF) status, whether they are made in the US, earned a “shout out” by Trump or have an affiliation with individuals who have earned an invite to the White House.

Avalanche (AVAX) Leading Other Crypto Assets

Apart from BTC, ETH, XRP, ADA, and SOL, CryptoRank believes that Avalanche (AVAX) ticks all the boxes compared to the rest. According to him, the asset was created by researchers at Cornell University. In addition to this, it has a pending ETF application while its representatives participated in the February 2025 meeting with the executive director of Trump’s digital asset advisory council Bo Hines.

At press time, AVAX was trading at $21 after surging by 5% in the last 24 hours. According to our market data, the asset’s 24-hour trading volume has declined by 10%, with $645 million changing hands at press time.

In an attached Venn diagram, CryptoRank pointed out that Sui, Filecoin (FIL), Aptos (APT), NEAR, and Movement (MOVE) are assets that have had White House recognition and also have US roots. However, Trump has never mentioned these assets, nor have there been any attempts to introduce their ETF products. The likes of Polkadot (DOT), Chainlink (LINK), Litecoin (LTC), and Hedera (HBAR) were also listed as US-based coins with pending ETF applications.

Recently, Aptos co-founder Avery Ching disclosed that he is working on the US blockchain policy with Cardano founder Charles Hoskinson, underscoring their connection with the current administration. Additionally, Elon Musk was reported to be considering working with Move to bolster government transparency.

Currently, the crypto market appears to be affected by the consistent US inflation and Trump’s Tariff policies. According to the Standard Chartered Head of Digital Assets Research Geoffrey Kendrick, the market could continue to struggle until there is “some certainty on tariffs/Ukraine/tax cuts/Doge cuts”. It is important to note that this bank is known for its accurate prediction as we earlier reviewed its $100k forecast for Bitcoin last year.
