White House Releases First Comprehensive Crypto Policy Report Under Trump Administration

The White House has unveiled its inaugural full cryptocurrency policy framework, a 22-page document crafted by the President’s Working Group on Digital Asset Markets. Established via Executive Order 14178 earlier this year, the group’s report represents the Trump administration’s first cohesive strategy for the crypto sector since the president’s return to office in January.

The blueprint aims to fulfill Trump’s campaign pledge to position America as the global leader in digital assets. It proposes sweeping legislative and regulatory measures spanning banking, taxation, decentralized finance (DeFi), and stablecoins. Federal agencies including the SEC, CFTC, IRS, and banking regulators are directed to accelerate efforts to close regulatory gaps and maintain U.S. dominance in what the administration terms the "Golden Age of Crypto."

Key recommendations include congressional action to clarify the CFTC’s jurisdiction over non-security crypto spot markets, building on recent bipartisan support for the CLARITY bill. The report emphasizes the strategic importance of integrating DeFi technologies into traditional finance systems.
