At the very least, Trump has endeared himself to younger voters by emphasizing Bitcoin and cryptocurrencies during the election campaign. In addition, it's worth noting that Trump was supported by such cryptocurrency companies as Coinbase, Ripple, Kraken, and a16z. Personally, I think that Trump's increased focus on Bitcoin and cryptocurrencies is because of this. In other words, he isn't a crypto-enthusiast, but just promoting the interests of the companies that supported him.

Ripple supported Kamala Harris during the election campaign, even made a very significant contribution, but after Trump won, they immediately began to establish friendly relations with his administration, so it is clear that they were looking for support in the government and are interested in this. Trump was interested in winning the election, for this he was looking for support from voters and Bitcoin was just a tool for him, and Bitcoin has never needed support from governments to grow before, so everything will be fine after this tariff hype dies down.
