Cryptocurrency markets experienced a surge after US President Donald Trump announced the possibility of a strategic crypto reserve, but analysts are warning that the rally may not last long. Trump disclosed on March 2 that his Working Group on Digital Assets had been instructed to include XRP (XRP), Solana (SOL), and Cardano's ADA (ADA) in the US crypto reserve. This announcement led to a marketwide rebound, with the global crypto market cap increasing by almost 7% to $3.04 trillion, and Bitcoin (BTC) surpassing the $95,000 mark following a 7.7% intraday rally. However, analysts caution that the establishment of a US crypto reserve will involve a lengthy approval process, potentially impacting the sustainability of the current market movement. Some analysts believe that the market may be approaching a turning point, with Bitcoin's active addresses reaching a near three-month high on Feb. 28, indicating a possible "capitulation moment." Despite the positive reaction to ADA, SOL, and XRP being included in the US strategic reserve, analysts anticipate short-term volatility in the crypto market. The upcoming White House Crypto Summit hosted by President Trump on March 7 is also generating anticipation among crypto investors, with discussions on stablecoin regulation and legislation related to a potential strategic crypto reserve being key topics.

Citibank (C) stated in a research report on Monday that the possibility of the United States establishing a strategic reserve of cryptocurrencies seems greater after President Trump announced this news over the weekend. Citibank pointed out that the US government currently holds about $19 billion in cryptocurrencies, mainly Bitcoin, while the amount of gold held is $750 billion. The report stated that the vast majority of assets seized by the government are Bitcoin, which means that the accumulation of other digital assets is likely to be funded by purchases on the open market. However, the bank stated that the "selection criteria are currently unclear," and that announcing such investments in advance could disadvantage investors in terms of price, adding that a similar situation occurred with the British government in the late 1990s regarding gold. The bank stated that further clarification on the selection criteria for which tokens to include in the reserves will provide more support.
