By ruling out force over Greenland and floating a NATO-based framework instead, he unplugged a geopolitical jump scare. Trump has also doubled down on making the US the global hub for digital assets and teasing a fast-tracked crypto legislation.<\/p>\n<p>But that\u2019s not all, tariffs are being scrapped too, at least for now.<\/p>\n\n<h2>The Case of Crypto Bull Run: Bitcoin to Rally After US Stocks?<\/h2>\n<p>Somewhere between praising US economic dominance and mixing up Greenland with \u201cIceland\u201d, Trump leaned into optimism. Dips were \u201cminor,\u201d markets were going to \u201cdouble,\u201d and America was open for business.<\/p>\n<p>Was it effective?<\/p>\n<p>Bitcoin climbed toward $90,000, Ethereum pushed above $3,000, and sentiment flipped from cautious to neutral in a matter of hours. Liquidations hit $606 million, nearly evenly split between longs and shorts, because crypto loves punishing everyone equally this cycle.<\/p>\n\n<p>(source \u2013 <a class=\"general-link\" href=\"https:\/\/www.coinglass.com\/liquidations\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>Coinglass<\/strong><\/a>)<\/p>\n<p>Behind the scenes, the CFTC rolled out its \u201cFuture-Proof\u201d plan, nudging Congress to finally modernize digital asset rules. Trump\u2019s AI and crypto czar floated the idea of banks and stablecoins playing nicer together. Even the American Bankers Association jumped in, waving red flags about yields in a nervous way. I think Brian Armstrong has a strong argument here.<\/p>\n<p>JUST IN:  Coinbase CEO Brian Armstrong calls out French Central Bank Governor&#8217;s misunderstanding of Bitcoin.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Bitcoin is a decentralized protocol\u2026Bitcoin is more independent.&#8221; <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/k7WNsBrgAP\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">pic.twitter.com\/k7WNsBrgAP<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u2014 Watcher.Guru (@WatcherGuru) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/WatcherGuru\/status\/2013947391733342444?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">January 21, 2026<\/a><\/p>\n\n<p>Meanwhile, US stocks did what US stocks do when there is no planned apocalypse. The Dow jumped 588 points, the S&amp;P 500 gained 1.16%, and the Nasdaq added 1.18%, erasing more than half of recent losses in a single session.<\/p>\n<p>Supply chains breathed easier, multinationals caught a bid, and risk assets across the board followed equities higher. Bitcoin is having its rally, as the bottom might already be priced in.
