US Government Shares First Crypto Policy Report — What It Means
The White House has just released its first-ever report about how the United States should handle cryptocurrencies and digital assets. This report was required under Executive Order 14178, signed by President Donald Trump earlier this year.
The report is more than 160 pages long and was prepared by a special group called the Working Group on Digital Asset Markets. It was led by David Sacks, a top advisor on AI and crypto, and included Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent and SEC Chairman Paul Atkins.
The White House said this report can help the U.S. lead the way in crypto and enter a “Golden Age of Crypto.”
What Did the Report Say?
The report includes many recommendations to make crypto rules clearer in the U.S. Some of the most important points are:
Clear Rules for Tokenized Assets: The SEC should explain how people and companies can create digital versions of stocks, bonds, and government treasuries legally.
Stablecoin Guidelines: Banks need clear rules about what they can and can’t do with stablecoins — like holding them or using blockchain technology.
Transparent Bank Licensing: Crypto companies often don’t know how to become official U.S. banks. The report says this process should be easier to understand.
Better Risk Rules for Crypto: Banks that hold crypto should have safety rules that match the unique risks of digital assets.
