What is Crypto Industry Expecting From Trump?
As previously reported by UnoCrypto, industry experts are urging the president to provide prompt guidelines in order to push digital assets into the mainstream.
The proposed measures include creating a national bitcoin stockpile, ensuring banking access for cryptocurrency businesses, and establishing a dedicated crypto council.
Trump, who campaigned as a “crypto president,” is reportedly planning to issue executive orders on a variety of topics on his first day in office, including energy and immigration.
The industry sees Trump’s victory as a chance to reverse the restrictive measures implemented during Joe Biden’s presidency. The Biden administration stepped up regulatory control of cryptocurrency companies, citing concerns about market volatility and criminal activity.
Trump, meanwhile, has pledged to support the Bitcoin business and encourage innovation.
Trump’s transition team has already hinted at a pro-crypto agenda with the nomination of Paul Atkins, a crypto-friendly former SEC chair, and David Sacks as the White House crypto czar.
