The industry is now pushing for measures including potential executive orders on crypto firms’ access to banking services and crypto-friendly picks in a range of roles, in addition to a new SEC chair

The crypto industry is pushing for an ambitious raft of policies that would promote the widespread adoption of digital assets and considering who best to promote them, as they anticipate a cryptocurrency-friendly regime under President-elect Donald Trump.

“We’ve had an administration that’s been very negative, and so we’re looking forward to unlocking that gridlock,” said Mike Belshe, CEO of institutional crypto platform BitGo, who hosted a campaign fundraiser for Trump in July. “I think the voters of America said very clearly that they want to see that.”

Trump has also pledged to create a crypto advisory council. While it’s unclear who might serve on the council, crypto executives are brainstorming who to elevate as key leaders in crafting crypto policy in the new administration. “Before the election, investors were already betting on options that the price of bitcoin would exceed $80k or even $100k, and the value of these bets has risen,” Grzegorz Drozdz, analyst at Conotoxia wrote, adding the election outcome was mostly driving those bets.

Jachym said there had been “negative pressure” from bank regulators on crypto relationships, which could change if lawmakers created a new crypto framework.
