According to Finbold Research, the number of BTC millionaire addresses has declined by more than 22,000 since Trump’s second term began.
Bitcoin has faced additional pressures from macroeconomic events, including Trump’s proposed tariffs on China, Mexico, and Canada.
Bitcoin is trading within a narrow range of $93,000 to
$106,000, signaling potential for major price movement in the coming days. The
waning market sentiment comes amid a report that Bitcoin millionaires have largely
declined in Trump’s second term.
On-chain metrics suggest Bitcoin demand remains robust
despite price fluctuations. Since reaching its last peak in mid-December,
Bitcoin has entered an accumulation phase, following historical patterns of
extended corrections after sharp rallies.
Historically, when Bitcoin has remained in a narrow
trading range for an extended period, it has led to sharp movements. This
pattern suggests the possibility of sudden price spikes and reversals before a
definitive breakout.
While Bitcoin has held relatively stable, the number
of Bitcoin millionaire addresses has sharply declined since Donald Trump
returned to the White House, Finbold reported.
Initially, his re-election led to optimism in the
crypto market, with 11,000 new Bitcoin millionaires emerging between October
and November 2024. However, since Trump’s inauguration on January 20, the trend
has reversed.
Data from BitInfoCharts shows that between January 21
and February 18, the number of Bitcoin addresses holding over $1 million
dropped by 22,279, averaging 795 fewer millionaire addresses daily.
Larger wallets have also seen steep declines. The
number of addresses holding over $10 million in Bitcoin reportedly fell from
18,801 to 15,392. In total, more than 3.54 million Bitcoin addresses with at
least $1 in holdings have disappeared since the start of Trump’s second term.

The crypto market has faced additional headwinds from
recent macroeconomic events. Following Trump’s inauguration, a series of market
disruptions contributed to Bitcoin’s stagnation.
Additionally, inflation figures from early 2025 showed
an unexpected increase just days after Trump pushed for further interest rate
cuts. Trump’s stance on Bitcoin and digital assets has also created
uncertainty.
Furthermore, Trump’s administration has been linked to
controversial cryptocurrency launches, including self-branded meme coins
released around his inauguration.

The trades that taught me the most aren't the ones that worked. They're the ones that didn't — or the ones I almost caught and didn't have the nerve to ride. In this session, I'll tell you about the Brexit miss, the SNB shocker that nearly handed me a 5400% return, the BoJ surprise that punched me in the gut, and a few wins along the way. Each story carries a lesson, but the lessons aren't the point. Everyone who trades long enough collects a portfolio of moments like these; what separates the people who stay in the game is what they do with them.

Most market post-mortems describe what happened to prices. Few describe what happened in the trading room while the position was open: the entry conviction, the moments that tested it, and the exit decision that closed the book.
This session brings one seasoned trader to the stage for an unfiltered account of the position that still defines how they think about markets.
Attendees will walk away with:
-A first-hand account of how a conviction trade is built, from thesis and entry through position management and exit
-Understanding of what turns a market observation into a live position, and what holds it when conditions shift
-Insight into how timing, execution quality, and market structure shaped the final result
-Perspective on what the trade revealed about edge, risk tolerance, and when to hold through a position moving against you
-Clarity on what separates a well-built trade from a well-timed one

As crypto and CFD trading continue to expand across Africa, access to advanced tools and market insights remains uneven. This session explores how AI and blockchain can bridge that gap by empowering informal traders and underserved communities to participate more effectively in digital financial markets. The discussion will focus on practical applications of technology to improve accessibility, education, and investment outcomes in both formal and informal sectors.
In this discussion, we will explore:
-The role of AI in democratizing access to trading tools, insights, and strategy development
-How crypto and blockchain can enable broader participation beyond traditional financial systems
-Addressing access barriers: infrastructure, education, and affordability in underserved communities
-Opportunities for brokers and platforms to tap into the informal trading economy
