Magic Eden (ME), an established Solana (SOL)-based NFT marketplace, announced on Tuesday, during the mid-North American session, that it intends to launch a crypto wallet for Trump fans. According to an X post, Magic Eden announced that crypto enthusiasts can join the free waitlist for a chance to win a share of $1 million in $TRUMP.
According to the official website for the trumpwallet powered by Magic Eden, the project partnered with the Official Trump memecoin, which is backed by U.S. President Donald Trump.
“Yes! This is the Official $TRUMP Wallet by President Trump. Magic Eden partnered with GetTrumpMemes.com to create the first and only $TRUMP Wallet. Have Fun,” the FAQ noted.
An Epic Denial From Eric Trump
As soon as the news for the Trumpwallet launch hit major headlines, Eric Trump, the Executive Vice President of the Trump Organization, announced that he knew nothing about such a partnership with Magic Eden.
The announcement created more confusion among the crypto community, with some accusing Magic Eden of orchestrating a large-scale scam.
Following the announcement, Magic Eden’s native token rallied over 28 percent to reach a daily local high of about $1.15. However, the ME’s rally was short-lived as the token retraced towards $1 at the time of this writing, following the denial announcement by Eric Trump.
The demand for ME tokens, nonetheless, experienced a sharp uptick as shown by its daily average trading volume, which hovered about $192 million compared to its market cap of around $154 million.

Ethereum’s price has been nearing the much-anticipated $4,000 mark, yet the rally seems to have hit a temporary halt.
Although the market has shown signs of saturation, Ethereum is far from finished with its upward movement. The recent consolidation is likely a short-term pause before another leg up.
Ethereum Is Showing Signs Of A Rally
Ethereum’s trading volume is sharply increasing, a signal that retail investors are showing renewed interest. While Ethereum’s price ratio to Bitcoin dropped by nearly 6% this week, the surge in trading volume mirrors a pattern seen in May earlier this year. Such a spike often precedes a local top, but this time it may be different.
Should both trading and social volume decrease for the rest of the week, this could indicate that the market is preparing for another bullish surge. The impatience and profit-taking behavior from retail investors may set the stage for the next upward wave.

Looking at broader technical indicators, the NUPL (Net Unrealized Profit/Loss) suggests that Ethereum is poised for a significant rally. The NUPL indicator, when reaching a threshold of 0.5, historically has signaled a pause in the uptrend, followed by a sharp rally.
Ethereum is currently nearing this threshold, which, in the past, has marked the beginning of powerful upward price action. As the NUPL indicator continues to rise, it provides a strong historical precedent for Ethereum’s next price rally.
Ethereum is currently trading at $3,666, just 9% away from the critical $4,000 resistance that many investors have been waiting for over the past seven months. The altcoin is expected to continue its upward momentum despite the recent consolidation, with the potential to breach the $4,000 mark soon.
The continuation of the bullish trend is supported by strong market sentiment and technical indicators. As long as Ethereum remains above its key support levels, the price is likely to surge toward $4,000.
If Ethereum can maintain its momentum, a breach of $4,000 could act as a catalyst for further gains.
However, should unforeseen selling pressure arise, Ethereum’s price could slip below the $3,530 support level. In such a scenario, Ethereum may fall to $3,131, invalidating the current bullish outlook. The key will be maintaining support and capitalizing on the retail-driven surge.
President Donald Trump’s latest executive order (EO) introduces new rules for how the U.S. government will handle digital assets like Bitcoin (BTC), XRP, and other cryptocurrencies. The order focuses on two key components: a strategic reserve for Bitcoin and a broader digital asset stockpile that includes XRP and other altcoins.
What is the Strategic Reserve for Bitcoin?
According to Fox Business’ Eleanor Terrett and David Sacks, the EO establishes a strategic reserve for Bitcoin (BTC), which will be the U.S. government’s primary digital asset. This reserve will be funded using the approximately 200,000 BTC tokens already in the government’s possession. These Bitcoins were seized over the years through criminal and civil forfeitures—meaning they were taken from illegal activities. The government will not need to buy any additional Bitcoin with taxpayer money. In fact, officials are authorized to explore ways to acquire more Bitcoin, but only through methods that do not cost taxpayers.
What is the Digital Asset Stockpile?
Alongside the Bitcoin reserve, the EO also creates a digital asset stockpile, which will contain cryptocurrencies other than Bitcoin. The stockpile will likely include assets like XRP, ADA (Cardano), ETH (Ethereum), and SOL (Solana), as announced by the President. However, unlike Bitcoin, the government will not actively look to purchase more of these altcoins. Instead, it will explore ways to acquire them without spending taxpayer dollars, such as using cryptocurrencies already seized from illicit activities.
The Role of Seized Assets
A key point discussed by experts is how the government will build its stockpile of XRP, ADA, and other cryptos without purchasing them. According to a former Goldman Sachs employee and founder of EasyA, the government will use seized assets to fill the stockpile. Over the years, the government has confiscated a large amount of cryptocurrency as part of legal actions against criminal activity. This means no new taxpayer money will be used for the stockpile.
No Plans to Sell Crypto
The government also announced that it will not be selling any of its seized cryptocurrencies, including Bitcoin and others. This decision could reduce market volatility caused by government sales of crypto. Over the last decade, the government sold around 195,000 BTC, which some believe led to downward pressure on Bitcoin’s price. By holding onto these assets, the government is signaling a more stable approach to managing its digital holdings.
What Does This Mean for the Crypto Market?
The decision not to sell seized cryptocurrencies, along with the creation of a digital asset reserve and stockpile, is seen as a positive step for the crypto market. It reduces potential selling pressure and might help stabilize prices, especially for Bitcoin. Overall, these measures are viewed as bullish for the market, particularly for Bitcoin and other digital assets included in the government’s stockpile.
