Trump\u2019s promise continues to face significant political and economic hurdles, as even some Republicans have spoken out against it. However, he has proven to make unpopular decisions in the past, so we can\u2019t really dismiss this one.<\/p>\n<p>So, Crypto Rover <a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/cryptorover\/status\/2106824503586132090\">noted<\/a> that the potential impact on digital assets is being underestimated, even though many other analysts <a href=\"https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/trumps-5k-proposal-could-ignite-an-insane-altcoin-season-analyst\/\">speculated<\/a> recently that it could lead to major rallies, especially for alts. His thesis is pretty straightforward: households would undoubtedly use much of the money for bills, consumption, and debt, but even a relatively small portion finding its way into investments could represent substantial new demand for crypto.<\/p>\n<p>He estimated that 5%-10% of a $1.7 trillion liquidity injection would amount to somewhere between $85 billion and $170 billion potentially entering the market. However, here\u2019s the catch.<\/p>\n<p>Trump promised the payment to adult US citizens, not every American. New estimates from major news organizations put the program\u2019s likely cost at around $1.2-$1.3 trillion, rather than the initially considered $1.7 trillion.<\/p>\n<p>But even with this lower figure, a hypothetical 5%-10% allocation would represent $60 billion-$130 billion. Rover argued that today\u2019s market is considered better positioned to absorb retail capital than during previous stimulus cycles, pointing to spot ETFs, broader institutional infrastructure, improved access, and a much more developed regulatory framework.<\/p>\n<h2>Far From Guaranteed<\/h2>\n<p>This part is far too important to explain with just a few sentences in the first paragraph, as there are substantial obstacles before any such liquidity boosts can materialize. As noted above, several Republicans have expressed skepticism about Trump\u2019s proposal, concerned that payments exceeding $1 trillion could worsen the federal deficit and further reignite inflation. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.reuters.com\/legal\/government\/trumps-5000-dividend-plan-draws-some-republican-skepticism-2026-09-10\/\">According<\/a> to Reuters, some GOP lawmakers instead want additional government revenue directed toward reducing debt.<\/p>\n<p>Separately, Congress would have to authorize the spending if Republicans win in November. Consequently, Rover\u2019s scenario involved several major assumptions: a GOP victory, congressional approval, actual distribution of the checks, and recipients subsequently allocating even a small portion of that amount to crypto.<\/p>\n<p>The post <a href=\"https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/trumps-5000-checks-could-send-billions-into-bitcoin-and-crypto-but-theres-a-catch\/\">Trump\u2019s $5,000 Checks Could Send Billions Into Bitcoin and Crypto: But There\u2019s a Catch<\/a> appeared first on <a href=\"https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/\" rel=\"nofollow\">CryptoPotato<\/a>.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>US President Donald Trump doubled down on his promise to distribute a $5,000 \u201cdividend\u201d to every adult US citizen if Republicans retain control of Congress in November.
