"Will there suddenly be a big turn in domestic policy one day in the future?"
This is a question from a reader at the end of a certain article.
Several years ago, I also wondered if our country would suddenly make a big turn in encryption policy in the coming years?
But over the years, as my observations have become more detailed and in-depth, I feel that this former idea was perhaps too naive.
We have all heard the saying: "Science knows no borders." I used to extend this saying to the field of technology, understanding that technology also knows no borders.
But now I believe that technology does have clear national borders.
In terms of encryption technology, its inherent functions (such as permissionless, censorship-resistant, and global free flow) are actually not suitable for certain types of countries.
In such countries, even if encryption technology can have a growth period, it is only because its inherent functions have not yet reached their limits, and once it does reach those limits, its growth will inevitably come to a halt.
Under certain unchanged conditions, hoping for a major reversal in the development of encryption technology in such countries is actually wishful thinking.
If we set aside national sentiment and look purely at the characteristics of encryption technology itself, it seems that only certain countries in the world are truly most suitable for encryption technology and digital assets.
Because in those countries, from the moment they established themselves, there has always been a force that is highly vigilant against overly powerful centralized forces. It is this force that has formed two types of values:
One group believes that only a large government can lead the country forward;
Another group believes that only a small government can unleash the creativity of the populace and create a nation's future.
The interplay of these two value systems has collectively advanced the process of a nation.
And what encryption technology needs is precisely the objective environment created by the second type of values.
Although the second type of values does not always dominate the national process, it always has the opportunity to play a role for a period of time and create a relaxed and free environment during that time.
Once encryption technology encounters such an environment, the opportunity for rapid growth arises. And if the country in such an environment also has a strong financial foundation, an excellent market environment, and outstanding tech talent, it would be difficult for that country not to become a global hub for encryption.
In a series of recent announcements by Trump, we can clearly see some substantial moves he is making regarding encryption policy.
For example, there are already rumors that he may specifically establish a government department responsible for encryption affairs.
Moreover, whether it is he or his deputy, or the already announced cabinet members (such as the Treasury Secretary), they all hold a very friendly attitude towards digital assets.
I believe that when Trump selected these individuals, he did not specifically examine their attitudes towards encryption technology and digital assets, but rather, as the old saying goes, "birds of a feather flock together." People with similar values naturally come together. Because he has such values, the people he chooses will naturally have similar values.
Therefore, I increasingly believe that his cabinet will have highlights in terms of encryption policy in the future.
There is also one thing that, although not directly related to Trump, I feel is intricately connected to his impending inauguration:
On November 22, Pennsylvania passed the (Bitcoin Rights Bill) by a large majority and subsequently proposed the (Strategic Bitcoin Reserve Bill).
If this (reserve bill) passes, it means that Pennsylvania will recognize Bitcoin as part of its state reserves. With Pennsylvania setting a precedent, I believe more Republican-controlled states are likely to pass similar bills.
In fact, regardless of whether the federal government will recognize Bitcoin as a reserve, as long as a significant portion of U.S. states recognize Bitcoin as a reserve, this is a big boon for Bitcoin.
Recently, many media outlets have stated that the recent surge in Bitcoin has already overdrawn the benefits that the Trump administration is about to introduce.
I don't see it that way; I still believe that the climax will happen next year, and this round of Bitcoin's climax will not be rushed through this year.
