Bitcoin Returns to 90K! Trump vs JPMorgan: Who Will Win Crypto War?

Within just a week, BTC rebounded back to 90K. As the crypto world’s well-known candlestick painter, Trump surely won’t sit still and let Old Money dump on him.

In November, while everyone was frantically cutting positions and fleeing to safety, one major figure quietly had two publicly listed companies submit their holdings to the SEC.

$Trump Media & Technology(DJT)$ reported holding around 11,500 Bitcoin. The disclosure date was November 8, but the purchase happened even earlier — with an average cost of about $115,000 per BTC, leaving them roughly 30% underwater at current prices.

Meanwhile, American Bitcoin Corp, controlled by Trump’s two sons (Eric Trump & Donald Trump Jr.), holds 4,004 Bitcoin. Their cost basis is slightly lower — but still well above $100,000.

Trump moved extremely fast afterward.

First, last Friday, expectations for a December rate cut surged to 80%.

Then, U.S. officials publicly criticized JPMorgan’s anti-crypto stance, arguing it is undermining public trust in the banking system and pushing the digital asset industry out of the U.S. The crypto community quickly launched the “Boycott JPMorgan” wave.

$JPMorgan Chase(JPM)$ vs Trump: Why Did This Crypto War Start?

What we are witnessing is a head-on clash between two monetary systems:

• The Old Order: Driven by JPMorgan, Wall Street, and the Federal Reserve

• The New Order: Driven by the U.S. Treasury, stablecoins, and a digital architecture anchored by Bitcoin

Today, the Fed and commercial banks (led by JPMorgan) control nearly all USD creation. If issuance and settlement shift toward a Treasury + Stablecoin model in the future, banks will lose their power, profit streams, and dominance.

During last week’s crash, JPMorgan shorted both $Bitcoin(BTC.USD.CC)$ and $Strategy(MSTR)$

1) Shorting Bitcoin

Analysts claim JPMorgan applied a “gold-style suppression mechanism” — synthetic shorts and liquidity shocks — to control BTC price action.

2) Shorting MSTR

JPMorgan pushed MSCI to exclude companies with over 50% crypto exposure, putting MSTR at risk of $8.8B in outflows.

Historical Bitcoin Prices on Thanksgiving

2025: $91,222

Historically, BTC tends to surge dramatically in the year after each halving. But this year, on Thanksgiving, BTC is still below last year’s price.

  1. Has Trump’s hype from last year already pulled forward all of BTC’s gains?

  2. With Bitcoin back to $90K, who will win the crypto war?

  3. Or JPMogran just wanna lower the BTC price to load up?

  4. When will Trump and his sons break even on Bitcoin?

  5. Surge or skyfall after the halving: which one may happen first?

    Bitcoin jumping back to 90K shows how narrative-driven this market is, especially with Trump’s family holding over 15,000 BTC. To me, this isn’t just volatility — it’s a battle between the old banking system led by JPMorgan and a new digital model backed by the Treasury, stablecoins, and Bitcoin. That’s why JPMorgan’s alleged BTC and MSTR $MicroStrategy(MSTR)$ shorts fit the broader power struggle.

    Historically, post-halving years see BTC far above the prior Thanksgiving price, but 2025 is lagging. I think Trump’s 2024 hype pulled gains forward. Even so, BTC tends to reprice fast when narratives flip, and Trump’s break-even around 100–115K isn’t far if momentum returns.

    As for surge or skyfall, I expect a shakeout first — institutions always prefer buying fear. But structurally I’m still leaning bullish, because suppression usually builds energy for the next move up.

    1. Has Trump’s hype already pulled BTC’s gains forward?
    Partly. Political optimism lifted prices early, but ETF inflows and liquidity still drive most of BTC’s move. Not all future gains are exhausted.

    2. With BTC near 90K, who is winning the crypto war?
    Bitcoin leads as institutional “digital gold”. Ethereum still dominates smart-contract use, while Solana leads high-speed apps. Overall, institutions are the real winners.

    3. Is JPMorgan pushing prices down to load up?
    Unlikely. BTC corrections come mainly from leverage wipes and profit-taking, not banks engineering crashes.

    4. When will Trump and his sons break even?
    Reports suggest entries around 55K–75K. At 90K, they are probably already profitable unless they averaged up.

    5. Surge or skyfall after halving?
    More likely a soft dip or sideways range first, then a medium-term surge as liquidity improves. Skyfall requires a major shock, which is low-probability now.

    🌟🌟🌟Trump vs JPMorgan : Who will win the Crypto war?  On Trump's side, he is pushing for national adoption, legitimising Bitcoin as part of US reserves and encouraging crypto innovation.

    JPMorgan $JPMorgan Chase(JPM)$ side : Cautious, risk focused and sometimes accused of suppressing Bitcoin linked equities.

    The real winner may not be either.  It is the market itself, where emotional sentiments, regulation and institutional flows decide the outcome more than political or banking rivalry.
