Factors Driving Market Changes
The crypto market witnessed significant events that led to its fluctuation. On March 2, Donald Trump [announced the creation of a crypto reserve](https://www.cryptotimes.io/2025/03/02/trump-announces-u-s-crypto-reserve-with-xrp-ada-sol/) involving Solana (SOL), Cardano (ADA), and XRP, which caused a temporary price surge. However, on March 6, following Trump’s [executive order](https://www.cryptotimes.io/2025/03/07/trump-signs-order-to-create-u-s-strategic-bitcoin-reserve/), the market began to decline, despite the anticipation of an upcoming summit.
After the summit held on March 7, expectations were not met, and a series of unexpected twists led to further market decline. As a result, sentiment on the market worsened, and investors became concerned about regulatory measures and economic pressure.
Over the past 90 days, the cryptocurrency market has experienced significant fluctuations. While Bitcoin lost value, some altcoins notably strengthened their positions. However, the current market situation, characterized by deteriorating sentiment and heightened regulatory pressure, leaves many questions about future developments.
