Major cryptocurrencies decline sharply in the year since Donald Trump returns to office, with broad losses across the digital asset market. Bitcoin falls 13%, while Ether drops nearly 6%. Smaller tokens post steeper declines, including Solana down 50%, XRP down 40%, and Dogecoin down 68%, reflecting sustained risk aversion among investors.

The selloff extends across meme coins and altcoins. Tokens such as Avalanche, Shiba Inu, Toncoin, and Uniswap fall between 65% and 71%, while newer assets including Aptos, Sei, and Injective lose more than 70%. Several Trump-linked tokens record losses exceeding 80% over the period.

In contrast, Donald Trump’s personal wealth rises to an estimated $6.6 billion, driven by crypto ventures, meme coin launches, Truth Social, and expanding licensing and merchandise revenue.
