A polling data point has shaken Wall Street, as political uncertainty hangs over the market, the foundational data of the crypto world is being redefined.
"Trump's approval rating has dropped to its second-lowest point during his term, with only immigration issues seeing his support drop to 41%."
This latest polling data, like a stone thrown into a calm lake, has stirred up ripples in the crypto circle. Over the past year, under the expectation of Trump being 'crypto-friendly', the market surged.
Now, with the decline in approval ratings and the potential shift in policy direction, a question looms over every investor: Is the narrative of the 'Trump trade' that supports this bull market still solid?
01 The alarm behind the polling numbers
The latest Reuters/Ipsos poll reveals the wide-ranging challenges facing the Trump administration. Not only has support for immigration policy declined, but support in multiple key policy areas, including the economy, healthcare, and government spending, has consistently remained below 50%.
This widespread discontent indicates that the political foundation is shaking. For the cryptocurrency market, this is far from inconsequential background noise.
Looking back at 2025, the 'Trump Deal' was one of the strongest engines in the market—he included the Bitcoin held by the federal government in the strategic reserve and vigorously promoted stablecoin legislation. Now, as the political winds shift, investors must reassess: will the former policy 'green light' turn into an uncertain 'yellow light' or even a 'red light'?
02 The Commitment and Variables of 'Too Big to Fail'
A more grand narrative is circulating in the cryptocurrency world: cryptocurrencies are expected to be included in the 'too big to fail' financial system by 2026. This means that if a major stablecoin or large exchange faces a crisis, the U.S. government may intervene.
The core support of this narrative is the deep interest connection between the Trump administration and the cryptocurrency field. Some analyses point out that the broader 'Trump Group' gained considerable profits from cryptocurrency operations in the first half of 2025.
However, the declining approval ratings add variables to this expectation. When policymakers vie for votes, policies may shift. If they tighten their stance on the cryptocurrency market to cater to broader voter sentiments, the so-called 'rescue commitment' may become a castle in the air.
03 When Political Uncertainty Becomes the Greatest Risk
In traditional financial markets, political uncertainty is one of the core risks in pricing. The cryptocurrency market is inevitably maturing and becoming sensitive to such macro risks.
Investors are beginning to realize that overly relying on a single political figure's preferences for asset appreciation is dangerous. Policies may change, public opinion may flow, but the demand for credible and reliable data in the blockchain world is eternal.
This is the crux of the issue: in a market where external environments (regulation, politics) can undergo drastic changes, what is the truly reliable and unmanipulated 'North Star'? The answer is on-chain verifiable real data.
04 Seeking Certainty: The Data Foundation Built by APRO
Regardless of who resides in the White House and how regulatory winds shift, decentralized applications need to securely and accurately obtain real-world data. This is the value of next-generation oracle networks like @APRO-Oracle.
APRO is not limited to simple price feedback. It is building a new layer of verification for the Bitcoin ecosystem, AI agents, and real-world assets (RWA).
Imagine when an AI trading agent needs to make decisions, or when an RWA project needs to verify the authenticity of off-chain assets; it cannot rely on data sources that may be tampered with or have single points of failure. APRO, through its Oracle 3.0 architecture, utilizes multi-node verification and consensus mechanisms to transform complex real-world information into trustworthy on-chain facts for smart contracts.
05 The Investment Logic that Cuts Through the Noise
In the face of political noise, a clear strategy is far more important than chasing highs and cutting losses.
First, distinguish between narrative and infrastructure. Political benefits are narratives that may dissipate with the wind. In contrast, projects like APRO that provide critical data infrastructure for the entire cryptocurrency world derive their value from real demand and usage.
Secondly, focus on adoption and integration. The value of an oracle network depends on how many important DeFi protocols, AI projects, or RWA platforms rely on it. APRO focuses on the rapidly growing but data-infrastructure-weak area of the Bitcoin ecosystem and has received support from several top investment institutions, paving the way for its adoption.
Finally, seeking certainty amid uncertainty. Political cycles will recur, market sentiments will fluctuate, but the demand for credible data will only grow stronger as the world connected by blockchain expands.
When a trader hesitates to sell their assets due to Trump's polling news, a smart contract on another screen is automatically verifying an RWA asset file for a property thousands of miles away through the APRO network and has completed the settlement.
The former is anxious in uncertainty, while the latter operates automatically in verifiable certainty. This may reveal two potential futures for cryptocurrencies: one still caught in the political storms of the traditional world, and the other constructing its own solid, credible, and autonomous new foundation.
Investing in the former is gambling; understanding and embracing the latter is investing in the future itself.
