During the meeting, Trump said his administration had “completely ended the war on crypto” and that the industry is booming. He also said the U.S. must keep an “undisputed leadership position” in bitcoin, crypto, prediction markets and artificial intelligence, while aiming to become the “world’s crypto capital.” Trump said his administration has discussed accumulating a “substantial amount” of bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies, and urged Congress to quickly pass what he called a “fair version” of the Clarity Act, saying it would help the U.S. stay ahead of China and other countries. He also said SEC Chair is working to bring Hyperliquid into the U.S. market in a compliant way, and pointed to the Genius Act, the strategic bitcoin reserve and the ban on CBDC as existing policy achievements.
