The cryptocurrency sector, having invested over US$200 million during the 2024 election cycle, seeks to influence policy changes with the incoming Trump administration.

The sector aims for regulatory reforms and integration of digital assets into the financial system.

The Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), the key crypto industry regulator in the United States, may see changes under new leadership.

Industry representatives hope for the rollback of Biden-era regulations, including those limiting banks from holding cryptocurrencies for customers.

Additionally, existing lawsuits on cryptocurrency classifications and regulations may be revisited.
