6. JPMorgan analysts believe cryptocurrency regulation under the Trump administration may see positive progress.
Odaily Planet Daily reports that the cryptocurrency market has surged after the U.S. elections, with Bitcoin reaching an all-time high of about $93,500 this week. JPMorgan analysts outlined six key regulatory and market changes that could reshape the U.S. cryptocurrency landscape under the Donald Trump administration and its Republican-led Congress. Analysts indicated that several stalled crypto bills could be quickly approved. This includes the "Financial Innovation and Technology Act of the 21st Century" (FIT21), which could provide much-needed regulatory clarity by defining the oversight responsibilities of the SEC and CFTC. Additionally, as the regulatory framework becomes clearer, the SEC's enforcement strategy may evolve into a more collaborative approach. They noted that high-profile lawsuits against companies like Coinbase may be eased, settled, or even withdrawn. The SEC's "Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 121" (SAB 121), which restricts banks from holding digital assets, may be repealed. The SEC may seek to resolve lawsuits regarding unregistered securities and require the launch of futures-based ETFs for these assets before approving spot ETFs. These factors could delay the approval of new ETFs or require re-filing. Clearer regulations may increase venture capital, mergers and acquisitions, and initial public offerings in the cryptocurrency space. Although strategic Bitcoin reserves would significantly enhance Bitcoin's legitimacy and could potentially drive up its price, the likelihood of this passing is low. -Original

Odaily Planet Daily reports that U.S. President-elect Trump has nominated Bitcoin supporter and former Democrat Robert Kennedy (RFK Jr.) as the U.S. Secretary of Health and Human Services (HHS). RFK Jr. advocated for establishing a Bitcoin strategic reserve during the 2024 presidential campaign to stabilize the dollar and exempt Bitcoin gains from capital gains tax, with part of his personal wealth invested in Bitcoin. Trump stated in a statement that Kennedy will "make America healthy again," committed to eliminating corruption in industrial food and pharmaceuticals. Kennedy's nomination is part of Trump's pro-crypto team, which includes vice-presidential candidate JD Vance and defense secretary nominee Pete Hegseth. Notably, Tesla CEO Elon Musk and entrepreneur Vivek Ramaswamy will co-lead the newly established government efficiency department "DOGE."
