Odaily Planet Daily News: Trump’s new administration will appoint candidates who support cryptocurrency to key positions and take a more liberal stance on cryptocurrency. Trump is exploring new personnel and policies to relax the regulatory environment for cryptocurrency in the United States. Trump’s aides are considering appointing ‘current regulators, former federal officials, and executives from the financial industry’ to key leadership positions, who are positive about cryptocurrency. Additionally, his senior advisors are consulting with cryptocurrency executives on potential federal policy changes. The initial discussions by the government focus on regulatory agencies, including the U.S. SEC. Sources say this process is still in its early stages, and the list of candidates may change. However, some of the individuals being considered include Daniel Gallagher, who currently works for Robinhood, and two Republican commissioners of the U.S. SEC, Hester Peirce and Mark Uyeda.
