#TrumpAtDAS Donald Trump made history by being the first sitting U.S. president to speak at a Bitcoin and crypto conference, delivering remarks at Blockworks’ Digital Asset Summit (DAS) in New York City on March 20, 2025 ¹ ².
During his speech, Trump reaffirmed his vision of making America the global capital of cryptocurrency, stating that "Crypto is the greatest revolution, and together we will make America the unquestioned superpower of bitcoin and the global capital of crypto" ¹.
Although some analysts had predicted significant announcements, such as a "0% capital gains tax on bitcoin and other crypto investments," Trump's speech didn't quite meet those expectations ¹.
Despite this, the cryptocurrency market showed resilience, with the total market capitalization standing at $2.8 trillion, up 0.69% for the day ¹. Bitcoin also saw a 0.36% increase over 24 hours, trading around $85,052 ¹.
