As Donald Trump prepares to assume the presidency, his team is considering creating a position in the White House that will focus solely on cryptocurrency policy. While it is stated that this new position will be a first for the US government, the evaluation process for the selection of potential candidates continues. Trump drew attention with his positive approach to cryptocurrencies during his election campaign and nominated crypto-friendly names for important government positions.
Trump's team is taking steps to strengthen crypto policy by increasing its contacts with industry leaders. Meetings with executives from major institutions such as Ripple, Circle and Coinbase reveal the Trump administration's intention to adopt a crypto-friendly approach in the SEC and other financial regulatory positions. These developments are considered as the beginning of a new era for the crypto sector in the US.
