Donald Trump has signed an order aiming to clarify the regulations in the cryptocurrency sector to secure American leadership in the digital economy.

Formation of the Digital Asset Working Group

The order establishes the Presidential Working Group on Digital Asset Markets to develop a federal regulatory framework for digital assets. This includes assessing the potential creation of a national digital asset stockpile. The group will be chaired by the White House's AI and crypto advisor, with participation from key figures such as the Treasury Secretary and the SEC Chairman.

Ban on CBDC Development

The executive order bans federal agencies from developing, issuing, or supporting central bank digital currencies (CBDCs). It also directs various federal bodies to provide recommendations on which digital asset regulations should be rescinded or modified.

Changes in SEC Leadership

With Gary Gensler stepping down as SEC Chairman, Trump appointed SEC Commissioner Mark Uyeda as acting chairman. Uyeda has formed a crypto task force led by GOP Commissioner Hester Peirce, known as ‘Crypto Mom.’ The task force's goal is to facilitate dialogue with industry participants and to create a more crypto-friendly regulatory environment.

Trump's order may become a turning point in the development of cryptocurrency regulations in the US, signaling a new strategy in the digital economy.
