US President Donald Trump is poised to sign an executive order allowing cryptocurrency, private equity, and real estate to be included in 401(k) retirement plans. This move aims to tap into the approximately $12.5 trillion held in US retirement accounts. The order would direct the Department of Labor to ease restrictions, enabling plan administrators to offer these alternative assets. Following the announcement, Bitcoin's value surged, reflecting a bullish sentiment for long-term crypto adoption. However, concerns remain about the Department of Labor's readiness to oversee crypto holdings in retirement plans. The current Bitcoin price is $116,460.01, with a 2.05% increase.#Btc $BTC $ETH
