According to Deep Tide TechFlow, on December 25, The Block reported that ETHDenver founder John Paller stated in an interview: "Trump's focus on deregulation and promoting economic growth could create ideal conditions for the thriving of DeFi. That said, we need to protect innovative policies while allowing builders to experiment without fear."
The CEO of Web3 company Vanar, Jawad Ashraf, also stated that a more direct impact on DeFi is that the new U.S. government may provide clearer regulations on whether crypto tokens are considered financial securities. This would lead to more implementation of fee conversions and also make it possible to legally pay protocol revenues to token holders in the form of dividends.
