U.S. National Security Strategy Omits Crypto Focus Amid AI Push
The Trump administration’s new national security strategy has sparked debate within the crypto community by sidelining digital assets. The 33-page document prioritizes artificial intelligence, biotechnology, and quantum computing as core technological battlegrounds. This omission comes despite growing institutional adoption of blockchain technology and recent remarks from President Trump emphasizing the need for U.S. leadership in VIRTUAL assets.
Market participants note the contrast between the strategy’s silence and the accelerating integration of cryptocurrencies into global finance. Regulatory clarity remains a key concern for industry growth, particularly as China advances its own digital currency initiatives. The administration’s focus appears aligned with traditional tech sectors rather than decentralized finance innovations.
