output: U.S. President Donald Trump's announcement of a strategic crypto reserve had a significant impact on the digital asset market, sending bitcoin (BTC) price past $91,000.

Trump's initial announcement included XRP, Solana (SOL), and Cardano (ADA) being named as cryptocurrencies to be included in the reserve for the world's biggest economy. He later said that BTC and ether (ETH) would also be part of it.

XRP price jumped 31% in the last 24 hours to trade around $2.80, while ADA price crossed above $1 and SOL above $160, both rising more than 20% on Sunday.

Bitcoin (BTC) was up 6% in the last 24 hours, finally trading above $91,000 after prices stuck near the 80,000 to the $84,000 range. ETH was above $2,400, rising nearly 10% in the same time period. The broader CoinDesk 20 Index (CD20) rose a whopping 17% in the last 24 hours.

The news would also help the prices of crypto-linked stocks such as Strategy (MSTR), Coinbase (COIN), Robinhood (HOOD), and bitcoin miners such as MARA Holdings (MARA), Riot Platforms (RIOT), and CleanSpark (CLSK).

Trump's move will likely bring bullish sentiment back into the digital assets space, which had been languishing for a week.

The crypto prices started to show signs of life on Friday when the white house said Trump would host a crypto summit on March 7. Summit attendees are set to include “prominent founders, CEOs, and investors from the crypto industry.
