Following President Donald Trump’s recent announcement about establishing a national crypto reserve, investor attention has shifted toward altcoins made in the USA.
The US crypto reserve currently includes altcoins such as Ethereum (ETH), XRP (XRP), Solana (SOL), and Cardano (ADA). However, experts anticipate the addition of more altcoins, including Chainlink (LINK), Ondo (ONDO), and Litecoin (LTC).
Chainlink (LINK) emerges as a strong candidate due to its inclusion in the Coinbase 50 Index, its presence in Grayscale’s trust, and its association with World Liberty Finance – an entity operated by Trump’s family.
Quinten, founder of weRate, believes LINK’s technology could help bring US strategic assets on-chain.
“LINK will be in the Crypto Strategic Reserve. Chainlink will facilitate a lot of this stuff, from the proof of reserves to putting other strategic assets on-chain (gold, currencies, …),” Quinten predicted.
Ondo (ONDO) is another likely contender, as World Liberty Financial holds Ondo tokens, and Donald Trump Jr., a co-founder of WLFI, has spoken at Ondo events.
“Trump confirmed a crypto strategic reserve, and his own crypto company, World Liberty Financial, holds Ondo. AND Donald Trump Jr. and other WLFI founders spoke at the Ondo Summit. Ondo is also a US based crypto. To me, it’s confirmed that either Ondo will be included or Trump will tap Ondo to tokenize the entire stock market,” Investor Not Telling predicted.
Ondo CEO Nathan Allman responded to Trump’s announcement by reaffirming that Ondo is a US-based blockchain company pioneering the tokenization of US Treasuries. The company plans to expand into stocks, bonds, and ETFs.
Additionally, content creator JRNY Crypto speculated that the reserve could include Litecoin (LTC), highlighting that LTC is a strong candidate for a spot ETF. Bloomberg analysts estimate a 90% approval probability for the ETF.
“All coins mentioned in the reserve are USA COINS. They also said BTC, ETH, and other coins. IMO, LTC will be added to the reserve and get an ETF,” JRNY Crypto predicted.
Following Trump’s announcement, the market capitalization of “Made in USA Coins” surged by 12%, reaching nearly $500 billion, according to CoinMarketCap data. This figure is 16 times the market cap of “Made in China Coins,” signaling a strong investor preference for US-originated crypto projects.
In addition, this altcoin group’s trading volume spiked by 300% in the past 24 hours, surpassing $82 billion, with XRP leading the volume.
Despite the excitement, the US crypto reserve plan has sparked controversy. Many industry leaders have voiced opposition to the inclusion of altcoins, arguing that only Bitcoin is suitable for national reserves.
