During his campaign, Trump made several crypto-friendly commitments to the market, including establishing a strategic Bitcoin reserve. Recently nominated SEC Chairman Paul Atkins is known for his friendly attitude towards cryptocurrencies, advocating for reduced regulation to support market innovation. -- This changed the SEC's previous year approach of primarily punishing the crypto industry, bringing the concept of 'financial freedom' into U.S. financial regulatory agencies. Other members of Trump's team have also provided strong support for the regulatory special focus on crypto finance: over 60% of the nominated cabinet members have publicly stated that they own Bitcoin or support the development of crypto finance, or indirectly support the growth of crypto assets.
