Coinbase Policy Chief Predicts Rapid Crypto Legislation Under Trump

Coinbase policy chief Faryar Shirzad believes that crypto regulation in America is about to reach full steam ahead with Donald Trump back in the White House.

Speaking at a UK event hosted by Coinbase-backed advocacy group Stand With Crypto, the president reportedly called the president the most pro-crypto leader in history. “We have the most pro-crypto Congress ever,” he said, referring to Republicans sweeping both the House and Senate.

With Trump and his allies in charge, Shirzad predicts that long-stalled cryptocurrency bonds will finally gain traction. For the 50 million Americans who own crypto, this could be the moment when their interests are taken seriously in Washington.

“I think this merger should finally allow the 50 million Americans who own crypto to have their interests and voices heard in politics,” Sherzad added. “The big takeoff will be in September 2025. We will see levels that we always thought were out of reach.”
