Ending Washington’s “war on crypto”

Trump told business leaders that his government had “ended the federal war on crypto,” citing a recent executive order aimed at reversing the restrictive policies of the previous administration. “Crypto was under siege — not anymore,” he said, describing digital assets as a “massive industry” that supports innovation and economic growth.

He contrasted his stance with that of former President Joe Biden, accusing the previous administration of targeting crypto companies and individuals with regulatory crackdowns. “They were prosecuting good people in a terrible situation,” Trump remarked. He argued that integrating crypto into the broader economy could strengthen the U.S. dollar and ease financial pressure on the nation’s reserve system.

Positioning the U.S. at the centre of the digital economy

Emphasizing national leadership, Trump pledged to make America “the Bitcoin superpower and the world’s crypto capital.” He linked his digital asset strategy to broader goals in artificial intelligence, calling the U.S. “the recognized leader in AI and technology.”

Trump also warned of growing competition from abroad, particularly from China.

“If we don’t handle crypto properly, other countries will and they already want to,”

he said.

While the speech did not include new policy timelines, it reinforced the administration’s direction toward pro-crypto reforms. Earlier this year, the White House introduced measures such as a “Strategic Bitcoin Reserve” and a “U.S. Digital Asset Stockpile,” using seized coins from federal operations. The government has not directly purchased Bitcoin, and legislation addressing the wider market structure remains under review.

Notably, President Trump and Chinese Communist Party leader Xi Jinping recently met in South Korea to ease ongoing tariff disputes that have unsettled global and crypto markets. The high-level talks aimed to restore trade stability between the world’s two largest economies, with digital assets once again emerging as a key component of geopolitical strategy.
