President Donald Trump joined executives from leading cryptocurrency companies at a White House event to lobby for legislation that would provide industry-backed regulation, potentially legitimising the crypto sector where the Trump family has financial interests.

This Wire brief sits within Fusion42's coverage of Fintech.

◆ ◆ The Wire takeaway

Crypto founders in the US face new momentum for regulation that could ease access to mainstream markets but also raise compliance demands. This is a moment to engage Congress directly or risk ceding influence to incumbents with political ties.
