In an emerging sector like cryptocurrency, changing regulatory regimes can be a threat, an opportunity, or a mix of both. In keeping with the new presidential administration in the U.S., there's yet another change investors need to be wary of or, perhaps, position themselves to take advantage of.

WEST PALM BEACH, Florida (Reuters) -U.S. President Donald Trump on social media announced the names of five digital assets he expects to include in a new U.S. strategic reserve of cryptocurrencies on Sunday, spiking the market value of each. Trump said in a post on Truth Social that his January executive order on digital assets would create a stockpile of currencies including bitcoin, ether, XRP, solana and cardano. More than an hour later, Trump added: "And, obviously, BTC and ETH, as other valuable Cryptocurrencies, will be at the heart of the Reserve."
