Just when he looked poised to tap a crypto bull to run America’s economy, Donald Trump is reportedly having a rethink.
After whittling down his list of possible Treasury Secretary picks to Wall Street executives Scott Bessent and Howard Lutnick last week, the president-elect is now reconsidering whether either crypto advocate is up to the job—and is considering some less crypto-friendly alternatives, according to a new report in The New York Times. #BTC☀
US House Financial Services Digital Assets Subcommittee to Discuss Tokenization of Real World Assets According to Odaily, the US House of Representatives' Financial Services Digital Assets Subcommittee is set to hold a hearing next Wednesday to discuss the topic of tokenizing real-world assets (RWA). The information was shared by Fox Business reporter Eleanor Terrett on platform X. The hearing will delve into the potential of transforming tangible assets into digital tokens, a concept that has been gaining traction in the financial sector.
