Inside the U.S. Crypto Report 2025, 68M Users, $4.8B VC Inflow & Market Clarity

The U.S. government has released its long-awaited crypto policy report under the Trump administration, signaling a sharp shift in favor of digital assets. The 160‑page Crypto Policy report outlines a coordinated vision for how crypto should be regulated, proposing guidance on stablecoins, decentralized finance (DeFi), self‑custody, tokenization of traditional assets, taxation, and anti‑money‑laundering reforms. 

Here’s What Crypto Users Need to Know

The White House crypto report 2025 begins by framing digital assets and blockchain as transformative technologies. It credits Trump’s crypto policy, supported by 72% of crypto investors, for boosting optimism across the market. An overwhelming 82% of investors believe it’s a good time to buy crypto, and around 68 million Americans now own digital assets. Venture capital interest is also booming, with $4.8 billion flowing into the space in Q1 2025, a 70% increase from last year.

GENIUS Act Brings Regulatory Clarity

The report also celebrates the recent passage of the GENIUS Act stablecoin regulation (signed July 18, 2025), which brings long-awaited clarity to stablecoins. The law enforces full-reserve backing, bans rehypothecation, and prohibits CBDCs, positioning the U.S. dollar as the dominant digital currency. Broader goals include promoting innovation, enhancing consumer protection, and supporting global competitiveness.

Blockchain Activity Hits Record Highs

Digital asset usage is surging. Blockchain networks processed 3.8 billion transactions monthly in early 2025, a 96% increase year-over-year. DeFi total value locked (TVL) has reached $130 billion, while decentralized exchanges handle $400 billion in volume each month. Institutional and retail involvement is growing thanks to better tools and more accessible platforms.

Push for Fair Market Structure and DeFi Compliance

The report outlines the need to distinguish securities from non-securities and recommends the Digital Asset Market Clarity Act (CLARITY 2025) to fill regulatory gaps. It emphasizes the importance of DeFi compliance, money service business (MSB) rules, and fair competition, while addressing concerns around cybersecurity.

Banking, Insurance, and Stablecoin Progress

Barriers for banks have been lifted, allowing them to custody, trade, and lend using tokenized products. Insurance coverage is slowly improving, with commercial policies generating up to $3.1 billion in revenue. Stablecoins now have a combined circulation of $258 billion, most of it fiat-backed.

Better Oversight and Fairer Taxes

Nailing down the cyber crimes, the report further addresses illicit finance, recommending updated FinCEN guidance and enhanced tools to detect crime without compromising user privacy. On the tax side, it recommends new IRS guidance on crypto loans, staking, and wash sale rules, aiming to make compliance easier and clearer for users.

This marks a significant moment for U.S. crypto policy, one that finally leans toward clarity, innovation, and global leadership.
