Trump Signs Executive Order to Advance U.S. Crypto Policies

Trump has signed an executive order to create a federal framework for digital assets and establish a crypto advisory council.

On Jan. 23, U.S. President Donald Trump signed an executive order establishing a cryptocurrency working group, fulfilling his campaign promise to be a "crypto president."

The move aims to establish a comprehensive federal framework for cryptocurrency regulation while building the foundation for a "Bitcoin reserve,” Fox reported.

The advisory group will focus on developing digital asset policies, collaborating with Congress to craft crypto-friendly legislation, and coordinating efforts between key regulatory agencies, including the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), the Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC), and the Treasury Department.

A central objective of the initiative is to evaluate the establishment of a Bitcoin reserve, referred to in the executive order as a “digital asset stockpile."
