Trump’s $22B crypto bet takes center stage at Bitcoin MENA event

Source Cryptopolitan

The Bitcoin MENA Conference is about to kick off in Abu Dhabi, and this year’s gathering has some major players. US President-elect Donald Trump’s new crypto venture will reportedly take center stage at the conference which also features Eric Trump, Steve Witkoff, Justin Sun, and more.

The major event comes in when Bitcoin (BTC) is riding high on the bullish momentum and smashed $100K for the first time over Trump’s vows to make the US the crypto capital of the planet. BTC price is up by more than 62% in the last 60 days, depicting the sentiment of the investors.

Trump’s WLF set to take over?

As per reports, Eric Trump, executive Vice President of The Trump Organization and Donald Trump’s son will deliver the keynote address. Following that, he’ll be holding a private “whale-only” session for big investors who hold the power to move markets. However, the “Whale Pass” which gives an attendee VIP access is worth $9,999.

World Liberty Financial (WLF), a new crypto platform co-founded by the Trump family, is at the heart of the conference. With Donald Trump holding over 22.5 billion WLF tokens, this crypto venture is gaining some serious traction in the space

Justin Sun, the founder of Tron, had bought a massive $30 million worth of WLF tokens. He’s now the largest investor in the platform and moves like these, signal major confidence in the venture and the crypto market at large.

The conference comes at a crucial moment when Trump, once a crypto skeptic, has declared himself the “crypto president”. If his promises hold, the market could see major policy shifts in favor of crypto. The recent appointment of pro-crypto Paul Atkins as the new Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) chair is one of those moves.

The event will also see Changpeng Zhao (CZ), the founder of Binance, speaking over much anticipated topics. India, the UAE, and other emerging markets are watching closely as global crypto leaders gather in Abu Dhabi.

Money still pouring into BTC ETFs

One of the biggest highlights of the year 2024, the launch of US Crypto ETFs, is turning out to be a game changer for the industry. Data suggests that almost $10 billion has poured into these investment funds since Donald Trump became president-elect.

Issuers like BlackRock, Fidelity Investments, and others have managed to draw $9.9 billion of net inflows in the period following Election Day on November 5. Bitcoin ETFs hold total net assets worth $112.74 billion (5.62% of Bitcoin Market Cap).

BTC ETFs reported a weekly net inflow of $2.73 billion (December 2 to December 6). This is the second-highest weekly net inflow in history. BlackRock’s IBIT had a weekly net inflow of $2.63 billion. The Bitcoin price saw a minor correction after hitting a legendary $104K. BTC is trading at an average price of $98,935, at press time. It is holding a market cap of over $2 trillion.

Bitcoin lost its 200-day average — but the exit started three sessions before the CPI Bitcoin fell 2.5% to about $73,400 on 11 November, an 11-week low, breaking its 200-day moving average near $73,100. The 24-hour liquidation tally reached $632 to $705 million, roughly 82% of it longs. But spot ETF outflows began three sessions earlier and USDT's market cap has shrunk $6.6 billion in 60 days — the leveraged length left before the inflation print did. A double top at 81,890 and 81,080 leaves a measured target of 69,366.

Nvidia slid 7.7% after hours while AMD and Broadcom rose — the AI trade changed hands, it didn't break Nvidia closed Wednesday at 173.73, up 2.87%, then fell as much as 8.1% to 159.44 after reports that its board was preparing for a possible leadership change. The same session, the Philadelphia Semiconductor Index rose 5.7% with all 30 components higher, CoreWeave jumped 24.7% on 168% revenue growth, and Micron added 11.9%. If AI demand were being repriced, AMD and Broadcom would not be bid. This is a governance discount on one name, and 204.54 — the 200-day average — is the level that settles it.

Gold hit a one-year low while central banks bought 321 tonnes — the sellers were never the ones you think Spot gold closed at 3,876 on Thursday, down 2.8% and its lowest close in more than a year, with an intraday low near 3,852. The dollar is at a 19-month high of 103.21 and the 10-year yield is at 5.10%, so the price move is easy to explain. What is harder to explain is who sold: central banks bought 321 tonnes in Q3, the PBoC added for a 24th straight month, ETF holdings are near a record 4,256 tonnes, and roughly 95% of the futures selling came from non-reportable and sovereign-type accounts rather than hedge funds. This piece separates the two books that have to balance.

Brent rose 3.3% and US crude stocks built 4.66 million barrels in the same week Brent January settled at 95.82, up 3.3%, and WTI at 88.74, up 2.55%, after the US signalled it would not pursue a deal with Iran and attacks on Gulf shipping continued. In the same week, EIA data showed US crude inventories rising 4.657 million barrels against expectations of a 1.1 million draw, with gasoline up another 1.799 million. OPEC output also rebounded 1.96 million barrels a day to 27.16 million in October, led by Saudi Arabia at 10.56 million. This piece separates the geopolitical premium from the physical balance and lays out where each side of the trade is anchored.
