4. QCP: Trump's proposal to eliminate capital gains tax on US companies issuing tokens ignited a craze in the altcoin market.
QCP analysis pointed out that established coins that have existed since 2021 have shown remarkable growth in the past two weeks. XRP broke through its historical high of $2 from 2021, rising 400% since November, reaching a peak of $2.90. Other established coins such as ADA, HBAR, and XLM have increased by 300%, 800%, and 600% respectively. This surge is mainly driven by two factors: first, Trump's proposal in November to eliminate capital gains tax on cryptocurrency issued by American companies; second, potential cabinet nominees supportive of cryptocurrency. Current Cantor Fitzgerald CEO Howard Lutnick may take on the role of Secretary of Commerce, as his company is currently negotiating a partnership with Tether. Meanwhile, the position of SEC Chairman may be taken over by Paul Atkins, who supports cryptocurrency. The report noted that although inflation concerns have compressed expectations for Fed rate cuts in 2025 to three times, and geopolitical risks from Trump regarding China, Mexico, Canada, and BRICS nations remain, the cryptocurrency market is still expected to continue its upward trend.
