Ogienko pointed out: "First, it is necessary to establish and regulate the security infrastructure for the storage and circulation of digital currencies domestically.

Several alternative cryptocurrencies have outperformed the overall market, with Bitcoin experiencing a significant rebound above $90,000 due to positive news on crypto adoption in the United States. Cardano's (ADA) token saw the biggest increase among the top 100 cryptocurrencies, rising over 43% in a 24-hour period to trade above $0.95. Solana (SOL) and XRP also experienced notable gains, with XRP rising over 15% and SOL nearly 12% on the daily chart, surpassing Bitcoin's 7.3% intraday rise. The rally was attributed to US President Donald Trump's directive to include ADA, SOL, and XRP in the US crypto strategic reserve, as well as strong community support for these altcoins. This recovery in the crypto market may indicate the end of the previous market capitulation, as reported by Cointelegraph on Feb. 20. Trump's announcement regarding the inclusion of ADA, SOL, and XRP in the potential US crypto reserve could mark a significant turning point for these altcoins, suggesting a broader plan beyond Bitcoin and emphasizing US-based crypto projects.

When discussing the risk of currency devaluation, Dalio said that investors should consider "what is the stable alternative currency supply? Bitcoin may be a part of it, maybe a large part of it."

Crypto security analyst and Paradigm adviser ZachXBT emphasized the importance of assessing the legitimacy of blockchain networks by looking at the circulation of stablecoins from major issuers like Circle, Tether, and Paxos. Following US President Donald Trump's announcement on March 2 about including certain digital assets in the country's strategic crypto reserves, ZachXBT pointed out that the presence of stablecoins from these issuers is a strong indicator of legitimacy. He highlighted that neither Cardano nor the XRP Ledger currently host major stablecoins, suggesting that if there was value to capture, the stablecoin issuers would have integrated their stablecoins into these networks. Additionally, ZachXBT noted that addresses linked to Ripple co-founder Chris Larsen still hold a significant amount of XRP, with the potential for continued selling off of the holdings.
