Trump’s broader vision aims to establish the U.S. as the “world capital of crypto,” a move welcomed by the industry. The addition of prominent figures like Elon Musk and former SEC Commissioner Paul Atkins to key roles is expected to lead to more supportive regulations, encouraging technological advancements in the crypto space.

Trump’s focus extends beyond crypto, with significant appointments in AI and economic policy. Sriram Krishnan, a former Andreessen Horowitz partner, will serve as senior AI policy adviser, while pro-crypto economist Stephen Miran is set to chair the Council of Economic Advisers. These moves indicate a broader strategy to modernize the U.S. economy and technology sectors.
Bitcoin has struggled recently, dipping 10% from its peak of $108,300 to approximately $95,000 after hawkish Federal Reserve comments. Social sentiment has hit its lowest point in 2024, with bearish rumors dominating the market. However, analytics platform Santiment notes that such low sentiment often precedes a price breakout.
If Trump’s administration introduces unified crypto policies, Bitcoin could regain momentum, with projections from Mark Yusko of Morgan Creek Capital suggesting a possible rise to $120,000 by 2025.
