Policy Meets the Blockchain: Crypto Under the Trump Administration
Recent reports that the Senate Banking Committee has a new draft of digital asset market structure legislation ahead of a potential markup this month is just the latest sign of Washington’s bipartisan momentum to make the United States the “crypto capital of the world,” as President Trump pledged during the campaign. This progress builds on a wave of landmark executive orders and regulatory policy changes that are unleashing decentralized finance. Two members of Brownstein’s financial services team discuss the risks and opportunities facing industry leaders amidst this fast-evolving crypto policy landscape. Matt Grinney served as a senior advisor in the first Trump administration, and Rob Robillard is a capital markets strategist who worked for one of Congress’s most outspoken crypto skeptics, Rep. Brad Sherman of California.
