Building on this trend, Finbold has identified two cryptocurrencies poised to attract a substantial capital inflow in May 2024, potentially propelling them toward the $1 billion market cap milestone.

Image
In 2021, former President Donald Trump made no secret of his disdain for cryptocurrencies, describing them as ‘potentially a disaster waiting to happen’ and professed his appreciation for the good old American dollar. By 2024, the stance of the presidential candidate Donald Trump has seemingly undergone a radical change. Not only did the controversial billionaire release several rounds of self-inspired non-fungible tokens (NFTs) but has seemingly – much like his Republican party – embraced the crypto market. Indeed, on May 8, he openly discussed Bitcoin (BTC) and other cryptocurrencies – including the Jeo Boden (BODEN) meme coins – explaining he now accepts donations in digital assets and noting that his victory would benefit the crypto community far more than a defeat.
