Trump signs digital asset executive order

Right after taking office, the 'Strengthening American Leadership in Digital Financial Technology' executive order formalized a pro-crypto policy stance.

It banned the issuance of a CBDC (central bank digital currency) and established an interagency 'Working Group on Digital Asset Markets' tasked with submitting a comprehensive regulatory framework within 180 days. At the same time, the SEC rescinded accounting guidance SAB 121, significantly easing banks' burden in providing crypto custody.
