Donald Trump's return to the presidency in 2025 has sparked discussions about his potential impact on the digital financial industry.

Trump's Policy Potential for DeFi Growth

Marcin Kaźmierczak, co-founder and chief operations officer at RedStone, suggested that a new Trump administration could 'drastically propel' decentralized finance (DeFi). 'Such an administration could champion policies that push DeFi from niche to mainstream, catalyzing an influx of innovation and investment,' he said.

Pro-Crypto Policies

Kaźmierczak believes the Trump administration could adopt a more crypto-friendly approach to legislation, potentially creating new policies that reduce regulatory barriers while encouraging innovation. However, the WLFI token launch did not meet expectations, drawing criticism from users.

Future of Bitcoin Staking

Kaźmierczak also noted that as BTC prices increase, Bitcoin staking could become a new investment standard, allowing investors to earn returns on their holdings. The implications of BTC’s potential dual-functionality — becoming a store of value and a source of income — could impact both BTC and DeFi.
