Good look at the history here, and should make it clear to anyone that Trump's in it for the grift, not to support btc (though it'll get some benefits from his actions).
Last weekend, after Trump previewed the creation of a strategic bitcoin reserve, bitcoin rose 9% in 24 hours to about $93,000. On Thursday, Trump signed an executive order establishing the reserve and a separate stockpile that would include smaller cryptocurrencies, a major win for the smaller tokens that had been lobbying to be a part of the stockpile.

Fake news MSM rag
Trump never called Bitcoin a scam or disaster waiting to happen, to be accurate, he acknowledged that it "seemed like a scam" and that that cryptocurrencies are “potentially a disaster waiting to happen,” arguing they could hurt the United States currency and emphasizing his preference for the dollar.
These details matter if you're not a muppet who has since learned that he's a master of media narrative manipulation.
My personal favorite was in 2020 or so, his tweet saying "Bitcoin is created out of thin air" in contrast to the dollar... now just take a wild guess what everyone replied to that? It was bait for useful idiots to confess that it's actually the dollar that's based on thin air.
It's painful reminding adult children that what you see isn't happening organically in real-time, but an outline, scripted in SCIFs, played out like a movie for you to consume. Trump himself is always referring to central casting, wink wink.
Follow the crumbs and you'll discover the same military intelligence that created Bitcoin, to save the US from a dutch diseased dollar, has helped secure his installation into office. After a decades long silent-civil-war against corruption, the "stage" is set for a house cleaning of national security issues created by a civilian government that's been for sale and captured by foreign bidders using the dollar reserve system as a backdoor.
