Stablecoin Bills and Trump’s Crypto Ties

In the 119th Congress, Republican lawmakers have proposed competing stablecoin bills to create clear regulations for digital assets. However, Democrats have criticized Trump for launching the $TRUMP memecoin just before his inauguration, raising concerns about ethics and conflicts of interest.

Regardless of the political debate, this summit marks the first major White House meeting focused on digital assets. Under Trump, the SEC has halted investigations and enforcement actions against crypto firms. Good times are ahead for the industry.
