Contributing sentiments towards policy:

53% : "The creation of a crypto council by President Trump could serve as a pivotal public-private partnership to facilitate cross-agency coordination, inform consistent regulatory frameworks, and promote global alignment, not just for today's markets but with an eye toward future-proofing policies to foster innovation and secure America's position at the forefront of digital assets and emerging technologies," said Stacey Rolland, founder and CEO, Zero One Strategies, a government relations and advisory firm focused on emerging technology policy.
53% : Trump has also appointed the new Acting Chair of the FDIC, Travis Hill, who released a statement describing a "more open-minded approach to innovation and technology adoption, including (1) a more transparent approach to fintech partnerships and to digital assets and tokenization, and (2) engagement to address growing technology costs for community banks".
52% : President Trump is expected to sign Executive Orders elevating crypto to a national policy priority and forming a Presidential Council of Advisers for Digital Assets, or 'Crypto Council.'
52% : Industry leaders who are expected to serve on the Crypto Council reportedly recently visited and met with Trump in Florida at Mar-a-Lago.
50% : While the Executive Orders (E.O.) for crypto did not appear in the initial batch that were signed quite visibly on Day One by the new President yesterday, both in Capital One Arena as well as the Oval Office, the crypto industry is hoping to see Trump roll out a more positive framework for digital assets than the prior Biden Administration.
42% : Other possibilities that may appear in one or more E.O.'s include potential tax relief and capital gains clarification for crypto owners, crypto payment acceptance, and tax breaks for U.S.-based crypto companies.
37% : With the former SEC Chair Gary Gensler resigning on January 19, Trump appointed SEC Commissioner Mark Uyeda as the Acting Chair of the SEC.
34% : Meanwhile, the decision of the American electorate to put Trump in office has resulted in a changing of the guard with U.S. regulators who directly affect crypto.
