The first White House Cryptocurrency Summit is a symbolic political event that marks the official entry of the cryptocurrency industry into the mainstream policy agenda of the United States, but its actual effectiveness will need to be observed in subsequent legislative and regulatory actions. In the short term, the summit's 'slogan' may inject optimism into the market; in the long term, vigilance is required against the erosion of decentralized ideals by policy fluctuations, as well as the complexities of global regulatory coordination. The core challenge for the industry in the future still lies in how to find a dynamic balance between innovation, compliance, and freedom.
