President Trump’s post about a crypto strategic reserve, in which he mentions specific cryptocurrencies, led to a significant surge in the prices of these digital assets.

Donald J. Trump & @realDonald Trump
A U.S. Crypto Reserve will elevate this critical industry after years of corrupt attacks by the Biden Administration, which is why my Executive Order on Digital Assets directed the Presidential Working Group to move forward on a Crypto Strategic Reserve that includes XRP, SOL, and ADA. I will make sure the U.S. is the Crypto Capital of the World. We are MAKING AMERICA GREAT AGAIN!

And, obviously, BTC and ETH, as other valuable Cryptocurrencies, will be the heart of the Reserve. I also love Bitcoin and Ethereum!

• Bitcoin (BTC): $91,641.20, up $6,686.81 (7.87%). The chart shows a steady trend followed by a sharp increase, peaking at $91,945.58.
• XRP: $2.84, up $0.69 (32.28%). The chart remains mostly stable before a sharp rise, peaking at $3.00.
• Cardano (ADA): $1.03, up $0.39 (62.31%). The chart shows a sudden spike, reaching a high of $1.19.
• Solana (SOL): $172.26, up $33.77 (24.39%). The chart remains flat before a steep increase, peaking at $179.88.
• Ethereum (ETH): $2,446.74, up $251.73 (11.47%). The chart shows minor fluctuations followed by a strong upward movement, peaking at $2,500.75.

WAKE UP AMERICA. Felonious grandpa is now fucking with our #strategicreserve. At the #Bitcoin Summit today, Trump said the Federal Reserve has invested in 200,000 BTC. That's $17,299,628,000 or $17 billion USD.

Poof - It could all be gone tomorrow. WTF 🤬 #Crypto is vapor.

@scavengerassorted.bsky.social I just set up a new WordPress site on my local server. I installed Apache, PHP, and MySQL, downloaded WordPress, and followed the installation wizard. How did you get yours running?
