Wyoming, one of the fifty States in the United States, is working on plans to launch its stablecoin. With the plan to fully back the stablecoins with the US Dollar, Wyoming is positioning itself as the first in the country to issue such payment tokens. According to Governor Mark Gordon, the state is making moves to jump onto the bandwagon as early as July.
Wyoming Stablecoin Pivot Aligns With Federal Government Pivot
According to a Bloomberg report, Governor Gordon is very positive about the stablecoin push. He believes most financial stakeholders are not bullish enough about the stable asset firm.
The Governor reference the position of JPMorgan Chase CEO, Jimon Dimon a while back regarding plans to venture into the stablecoin niche earlier. He said he once pitched Wyoming to him and the bank as the state has the right “framework to do it.”
While only a few mainstream firms have entered the stablecoin scene, Wyoming may be pioneering a new wave in the digital payments ecosystem. This move comes as the President Donald Trump administration is pushing for legislation for the ecosystem.
The crypto market is stabilizing as Bitcoin (BTC) recovers above $85K, with Ethereum and XRP prices maintaining above $1,500 and $2 respectively. This comes after China announced new tariffs on U.S. imports in response to President Donald Trump’s 145% tariff on Chinese products. Additionally, this week’s CPI and PPI data came below expectation, boosting the prices of Bitcoin and altcoin markets. This has left room for a significant recovery rally in the coming week as buying demand rises exponentially.
Bitcoin Price Analysis
Bitcoin has surged above the crucial $85K level and is now aiming to maintain its recovery rally toward upcoming resistance channels. As of writing, BTC price trades at $84,864, surging over 3.2% in the last 24 hours.
The 20-day average price ($82,246) is starting to rise, but the RSI (which measures buying and selling strength) is hovering within the buying region at level 64, suggesting that the downward pressure is easing up a bit. As Bitcoin hovers around strong resistance channels, it’s likely to face downward correction. However, if buyers hold the momentum above $85K, the price might climb to $89,000 and possibly even $95,000 next week.
On the flip side, sellers will likely try to block that move and push the price back down below the $78K support. If they succeed, Bitcoin could fall again to retest the crucial $74.5K support level.
Ethereum Price Analysis
Ether bounced off critical $1,500 as sellers are having a hard time keeping the price down. As of writing, ETH price trades at $1,645, surging over 5% in the last 24 hours.
The moving averages are trending up, and the RSI is in positive territory, which means buyers are having an advantage. They’ll likely try to hold the price above the descending resistance line. If this happens, we might see ETH price skyrocketing toward the crucial resistance around $2,000 next week.
To avoid that, sellers need to quickly push the price below the EMA20 trend line. If they manage that, Ether could decline toward $1,386. That level is important because if the price goes below it, it could signal a short-term change in momentum away from the bulls.
XRP Price Analysis
XRP climbed back above the $2 level and is aiming to maintain a trend above the EMA200 trend line on the 4-hour chart. As of writing, XRP price trades at $2.13, surging over 5.51% in the last 24 hours.
If XRP manages to rise above the 200-day moving average, it would suggest that the recent drop toward $2 heavily attracted buying demand. In that case, the price could continue to climb toward the resistance line at $2.25, where sellers are likely to step in again. A surge above this level might send the price toward $2.6.
If the price drops from the $2.25 level, sellers might try to push XRP/USDT down to the key support at $2. Buyers will likely defend that level strongly, because if it breaks, the price could fall further to around $1.6.

Bitcoin (BTC) surged past the $90,000 mark following reports of its potential preferential treatment in President Donald Trump’s proposed US crypto reserve strategy.
The speculation comes ahead of the White House Crypto Summit, which Trump will host and feature top digital asset industry executives.
Trump’s Bitcoin Reserve Plan Unveiled
Citing Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick, The Pavlovick Today revealed that the strategic cryptocurrency reserve would be on Friday’s agenda for President Trump’s White House Crypto Summit.
“The President definitely thinks that there’s a Bitcoin strategic reserve. Now there will be the question of, how do we handle the other cryptocurrencies? And I think the model is going to be announced on Friday,” Lutnick reportedly stated.
Reportedly, Trump envisions a strategic Bitcoin reserve, distinguishing it from other cryptocurrencies. Lutnick suggested Bitcoin would receive unique status under Trump’s plans.
“So Bitcoin is one thing, and then the other currencies, the other crypto tokens, I think, will be treated differently—positively, but differently,” he added.
Following this news, Bitcoin reclaimed the $90,000 psychological level, with BTC trading for $90,097 as of this writing. According to BeInCrypto data, this represents a surge of over 7% since Wednesday’s session opened.
The prospective preferential treatment for Bitcoin is unsurprising given its heft as the pioneer crypto. Similarly, its commodity status, like Ethereum (ETH), also positions it for possible privilege.
In a recent Truth Social post, he emphasized his administration’s commitment to elevating the crypto sector. Specifically, Trump announced that the US crypto reserve would include XRP, SOL, and ADA alongside Bitcoin and Ethereum.
However, Lutnick’s comments suggest that Bitcoin may receive special status under the new framework. While Trump’s announcement has fueled bullish sentiment in the Bitcoin market, it has also sparked significant debate.
Some crypto leaders have expressed skepticism about including alternative cryptocurrencies (altcoins) in the US reserve. Critics argue that favoring Bitcoin while treating other tokens differently could create market distortions.
Another major talking point is Ethereum’s role—or lack thereof—in the prospective crypto reserve strategy. The White House Crypto Summit will feature leaders from ecosystems running on Ethereum, but the blockchain lacks representation.
Notwithstanding, the announcement of a strategic crypto reserve has led to speculation about an incoming altseason. Tim Haldorsson, founder of Luna Strategy, told BeInCrypto that Trump’s plan could drive increased investment into altcoins.
However, Henrik Zeberg Jensen, the head of Macroeconomics and fund manager of Swissblock Technologies AG, has a different opinion.
“Trump does not stand as a testimony to or a proof of which tokens will have success. Look at his meme coin [TRUMP]! No usability- and driven by speculation. The success of any token in the long run will be based on the usability of the token in future solutions which will lift productivity and reduce cost. Trump’s picks in that respect seem arbitrary,” Zeberg told BeInCrypto.
Should Bitcoin get preferential treatment in the crypto reserve, altcoins could still benefit. Historically, Bitcoin-led rallies have often paved the way for altcoin surges.
