The deal positions Cronos as one of the favorite cryptocurrencies for President Trump, who has been pro-crypto from the day he took office. Investors betting on favorable US regulations find a cryptocurrency tied to the president highly attractive.

Trump Media Deal Paves the Way for CRO Integration Into Social Media Sites

Besides the association with the US president, the deal also paves the way for Cronos’ growth in adoption. That’s because as part of the SPAC deal, the Crypto.com wallet and the Cronos token will be integrated into Trump Media outlets, particularly Truth Social and Truth+. Through this integration, users of these Trump-related social platforms will earn CRO tokens from various activities on the platforms. Such could trigger a significant surge in Cronos adoption by a broader audience, further adding to the token’s intrinsic value.

 This strategy makes Cronos attractive to institutions looking to integrate cryptocurrency payments into their systems. It also makes the CRO token attractive to institutional capital looking to invest in cryptocurrencies but wants to diversify away from Bitcoin and Ethereum. It explains why investor sentiment in Cronos is increasingly positive, as seen in the intraday trading volumes. 

Technical Analysis – Cronos In A Breakout as It Rallies Through Resistance

Cronos is in a strong bull rally and has today rallied through multi-month resistance at $0.20. The breach through resistance has been accompanied by strong volumes, an indicator that bulls are firmly in control.

In the event that bulls sustain momentum, and Cronos ends the week above $0.20, then a rally to $0.30 or higher could follow in the short term. On the other hand, if there is a pullback due to profit taking, there is a strong chance that Cronos could consolidate around $0.20, which would now be support.
