💰🎢 Dollar's 2025 rollercoaster ride: Trump's policies in play

Donald Trump's pledges to boost the dollar, slash national debt, and supercharge the US economy have investors on edge. But, has the dollar actually gained strength since January? 🤔 (Spoiler alert: not really!)

It's been a bumpy road for the greenback against major currencies, hitting a three-year low. The US Dollar Index (DXY) has fallen by 9.3%, and experts are pointing fingers at Trump's unpredictable and assertive policies as the culprit.

Here's a quick look at how things have shaken out since the start of 2025:

• 🇪🇺🇺🇸 EURUSD: +11.16%
• 🇬🇧🇺🇸 GBPUSD: +7%
• 🇦🇺🇺🇸 AUDUSD: +3.52%

• 🇺🇸🇯🇵 USDJPY: -10.77%
• 🇺🇸🇨🇭 USDCHF: -10.55%
• 🇺🇸🇨🇦 USDCAD: -4%

🇨🇳🇺🇸 USDCNH has only dipped slightly by -0.18% (with drops up to -2%). This is largely due to its deep involvement in trade wars with the US, which already had investors on edge.

🔼 Gold's golden run: Gold has been on a tear since January, skyrocketing by +32%! It's outperforming expectations and has been a real beast for traders.

💡 But remember, what goes up must eventually come down. Keep a close eye on your risk management strategies!

🔥 Doto Glossary: Trumponomy

We continue to break down key trading terms into easy-to-follow explanations.

No, it’s not a new crypto token. Trumponomy or Trumponomics is a buzzword referring to the economic policy cocktail mixed by Donald Trump — heavy on tax cuts, a dash of deregulation, and a bold splash of tariffs.

The goal? Protect U.S. industries and boost domestic growth. The result? Let’s just say markets had… opinions.

🤔 Why it matters for traders
When protectionist policies hit, it’s not just politicians throwing punches — markets do too.

📊 Volatility rises. Especially in commodities, tech, and forex.
📣 Tariff headlines = trading signals. Markets often react before policies kick in.
🌐 Partners strike back. Countries hit with tariffs might retaliate, shifting risk and opportunity across sectors.

💡 Tip: Keep an eye on economic calendars, tariff announcements, and sector-specific news. These can be early clues to where the volatility is heading.

🕯 Another day, another Trump moment!

In the last 24 hours, TRUMP coin went wild, spiking 60% to $16 after Donald Trump's announcement of hosting a dinner for the top 220 token holders and a VIP experience for the top 25 among them.

After correction, the token is currently trading around $12.

Right in the Doto app

Rumor has it Trump wasn't thrilled with the token's performance, which tanked almost 90% from its all-time high. Now, a simple dinner with Trump is the catalyst, reviving market's interest after months of silence from Trump's team.

💡 What's even crazier, TRUMP surged after a massive $320 million token unlock on April 19th, flooding the market with 20% more tokens.

Keep an eye on this one! If Trump keeps the spotlight on TRUMP coin, we could see more volatility. Remember, meme coins dance to the tune of public attention, so tread carefully and always manage your risk!

🤓 Fun fact: exactly one year ago, on this very day, a meme inscription that simply said “Buy Bitcoin” was sold at auction for a jaw-dropping 16 BTC! Can you believe it? 🤯

Back in 2017, Christian Langalis whipped up a sign during a live moment with Janet Yellen, the then Federal Reserve Chair.

Little did they know, this spontaneous act would set off a wave of hilarious memes in the crypto community. It became a shining symbol of Bitcoin's incredible rise!

💡 Back then, Bitcoin was valued at approximately $2,300. Now, its value has increased to more than $94,000.

So, looking back, that sign was pretty good advice, wasn’t it? What do you think?

🪙 Companies from around the world have already purchased over 1,000,000 BTC for their balances, according to data.

That's 4.75% of the total supply of 21,000,000 coins!

Interestingly, half of this amount is held by Strategy (formerly MicroStrategy), which is the largest holder of bitcoin in the world with 553,555 BTC on its balance sheet. 15,355 BTC were acquired ONLY TODAY!

This is a strong long-term market signal as companies now see Bitcoin as a great store of value.

💡 Another interesting fact is that the Bitcoin network's computing power hit a new all-time high earlier this month, also signaling continued long-term strength.

These indicators suggest that, even in the middle of economic instability and uncertainty, Bitcoin exhibits fundamental growth far beyond its price tag.

🔥 Doto Glossary: Forex Factory Syndrome

We continue to break down trading terms into easy-to-follow explanations.

Forex Factory Syndrome occurs when traders become glued to news feeds and event calendars, making trades simply because “something’s happening”.

💡 Not every major headline deserves a major reaction. It’s a trap disguised as "staying informed".

❌ So, if you chase economic releases without a plan, overtrade based on hype instead of strategy, and get thrown around by the market’s reactions, you need a new approach.

✅ Start using news as context for your trades, not as a reason to jump in. Stick to your trading plan, even when FOMO hits really hard. Trade YOUR OWN setups instead of blindly reacting to the latest headlines.

And remember, everything you need for comfortable, noise-free trading is available within the Doto app!

🕯 Will gold prices soar or fall in 2025?

Since the start of the year, gold has surged 26% — one of its strongest beginnings in history. That naturally raises a question: will the rally continue, or is a pullback around the corner? Opinions are split.

🏦 Goldman Sachs sees gold hitting $3,700 by year-end and $4,000 by mid-2026. If a recession kicks in, they expect ETF demand could push it to $3,880 even sooner.

✅ UBS's last two price targets — $3,200 and $3,500 — have already been met.

🪙 And Tether just stocked up nearly 8 tons of gold to back its stablecoin XAUT.

Not everyone agrees. The CEO of leading gold miner Solidcore warns that prices could drop to $2,500 in a year, calling the current level "an emotional reaction to political chaos".

💡 Whether gold keeps climbing or takes a dive — one thing’s certain: with Doto, volatility means opportunity. Just don’t forget about a solid risk management strategy.

✅ Stablecoins just flipped Visa. What’s next?

Stablecoins like USDT, USDC, and DAI processed over $27.6 trillion in transactions last year — overtaking Visa and outpacing Mastercard by 7.7%!

💡 95% of that volume was settled on Ethereum.

Even more impressive — back in 2020, stablecoin volumes were 10x smaller than Visa’s.

📣 The Fed's rate decision is coming today at 18:00 UTC!

Fed Chair Jerome Powell will speak today at 18:30—everyone's waiting to see what he says. No rate cuts are expected, but his comments can shake things up!

⌚️ Timeframes (UTC)
• 18:00: Rate decision (probably staying at 4.25–4.50%)
• 18:30: Powell speaks (this is the moment!)

💡 What to watch
Watch full list of assets: 🧭 here

• XAUUSD, EURUSD, GBPUSD – could go up if Powell hints at future rate cuts or if the market looks bad. They might drop if a cut isn’t likely and inflation stays high.

• S&P 500 & NASDAQ – they react quickly to the rate news. Likely to go up if no cuts are expected, but could drop if cuts are anticipated.

⭐️ A few tips for new traders
Wait 15 to 30 minutes after you decide before you dive in. Watch for words like “data dependent,” “inflation,” and “recession.” Set stop losses since things can shift really fast.
