The Digital Asset Summit (DAS) 2025 took place from March 18 at the Javits Center North, New York, with 150 speakers and 1,800 attendees from 750 organizations. The event included over 45 discussion sessions related to digital assets and blockchain technology.
President Donald Trump's speech at the conference is considered a key highlight, as this is the first time a sitting U.S. president has spoken at a digital asset conference. Although Trump will not participate directly, he has sent a recorded message, expected to be played at 10:40 AM EST. The speech is anticipated to reaffirm the administration's stance on cryptocurrency and announce new policies.
Trump's administration has announced plans to create a National Strategic Cryptocurrency Reserve. Bo Hines, Executive Director of the White House's Digital Asset Advisory Council, stated that this initiative could enhance the financial strength of the U.S. and benefit investors.
In contrast to the previous administration, under Trump's leadership, the government has shown strong support for the cryptocurrency industry, which has led to the dismissal of several lawsuits against cryptocurrency companies like Coinbase.
Trump's speech is expected to clarify the government's policies on cryptocurrency, with hopes of creating a supportive legal environment for institutional investors and promoting the growth of the industry in the U.S.
This event is significant not only for the United States but could also influence global cryptocurrency policies in the near future, especially given the substantial challenges and opportunities that this sector is facing.
The developments at the conference are very likely to shape how other countries approach and manage digital assets in the coming time.
