President-elect Donald Trump made many promises to the Bitcoin and crypto communities during his presidential run. As he is sworn in for a second term later today, we look at which of them will most likely come to fruition.
After successfully choosing the winner of the US election, Polymarket traders are now attempting to predict where he will follow through on his promises.
Polymarket data shows high expectations around pardons for the January 6 defendants and Ross Ulbricht, along with possible support for a strategic Bitcoin reserve. Traders are also watching whether new tariffs will be imposed on Mexico or Canada and whether an executive order on crypto will appear on Day 1.
| Prediction | Chance | Volume |
|---|---|---|
| Trump will create a Bitcoin Reserve in the first 100 days | 56% | $2,598,422 |
| Over 40 Executive Orders signed on Day 1 | 64% | $536,229 |
| January 6 protestors pardoned in first 100 days | 99% | $7,952,113 |
| Trump will save TikTok in first week | 92% | $327,345 |
| Trump will end the Ukraine war in the first 90 days | 34% | $9,281,609 |
| Trump will issue a crypto executive order on Day 1 | 36% | $193,914 |
| January 6 protestors pardoned on Day 1 | 92% | $119,449 |
| Trump will sign a national abortion ban | 20% | $605,920 |
| Gulf of Mexico renamed to “Gulf of America.” | 66% | $73,021 |
| 25% tariff imposed on Mexico/Canada | 31% | $448,663 |
| Trump will acquire Greenland in 2025 | 20% | $798,726 |
| Trump will declassify JFK assassination files | 75% | $512,872 |
Markets suggest that pardons and selected crypto policies carry the strongest likelihood. Polymarket assigns a 99% chance of pardons for nonviolent January 6 participants in Trump’s first 100 days and a 92% chance for pardons issued on Day 1. Ross Ulbricht, who Trump vowed to free on day one, has an 83% chance of receiving clemency in the first 100 days.
There is also a strong indication that TikTok may remain operational despite prior legislation mandating its sale or ban, an outcome with a 92% likelihood by the end of the first week. Another high-chance scenario involves more than 40 executive orders on Day 1, evaluated at 64%.
Will Trump deliver on crypto promises?
Crypto-oriented moves rank among the top concerns for traders, with over $2 million traded, though their likelihood is lower.
