On March 7, 2025, the White House hosted the first Cryptocurrency Summit under the administration of President Donald Trump. This event brought together prominent leaders from the industry, including Michael Saylor, CEO of Strategy; Brian Armstrong, CEO of Coinbase; Arjun Sethi, CEO of Kraken; and Kris Marszalek, CEO of Crypto.com. During the summit, President Trump signed an executive order to establish a strategic reserve of bitcoins, with the goal of positioning the United States as a global leader in digital assets.
Plans were discussed to accelerate the regulation of stablecoins and remove banking obstacles affecting cryptocurrency businesses. This summit reflects a significant shift in U.S. policy toward greater adoption and institutionalization of cryptocurrencies.
In Costa Rica, we should be having similar meetings.
