White House Crypto Summit: Toward New Regulations

On 7 March 2025, the White House will host a crypto summit with key industry leaders. According to sources, President Donald Trump will chair the event, with David Sacks in the role of moderator.

With Trump's pro-crypto stance and his pro-industry moves, investors are expecting regulatory changes more favourable to cryptocurrencies. Here are the key points that, according to SpazioCrypto, will be the focus of the summit.

Greater Regulatory Clarity

For years, regulations have been a hurdle for cryptocurrency enthusiasts. The Biden administration has always taken a harsh approach to this sector, stifling the market and preventing its growth.

Trump's favourable stance could change this trend. The summit could outline a clearer regulatory framework for digital currencies, addressing issues such as stablecoin management, exchange compliance and decentralised finance.

In this context, David Sacks could promote policies to legitimise USDT and USDC without curbing innovation. In addition, the dismissal of the SEC lawsuits against Kraken, Coinbase and other crypto companies could be discussed.

One notable aspect is that the list of invitees to the summit is very short and includes only the major industry leaders. It seems that the White House wants to directly involve key members of the crypto world, which could lead to more robust policies.

Fox journalist Eleanor Terret said:

"NEW: More and more participants are confirming their attendance at Friday's White House Crypto Summit. So far confirmed:
Michael Saylor, David Bailey, Matt Huang, JP Richardson."

Update on the United States Crypto Reserve

Recently, Donald Trump announced the creation of strategic reserves with Ethereum (ETH), Bitcoin (BTC), Cardano (ADA) and Solana (SOL). This has already had a small positive impact on the prices of these cryptocurrencies, raising more interest among investors.

However, information on the strategic reserve is still incomplete. For instance, how will the reserve be financed? Will seized assets be used?

The size of the fund and which assets to include could also be discussed at the summit. According to Senator Lutnick, Trump will present the Bitcoin reserve plan at the event. He stated:

"The President believes a strategic Bitcoin reserve is necessary. Now a decision will have to be made on how to handle other cryptocurrencies. I think the model will be announced on Friday."

New Tax Policy

SpaceCrypto believes that another possible topic of discussion will be cryptocurrency tax reform. For some time, Trump has been hinting at the possibility of eliminating the capital gains tax for crypto assets.

Lower taxes would reduce costs and increase profits for investors, encouraging market adoption and industry growth. However, total abolition of taxation is unlikely due to congressional opposition. Small changes, such as increasing the holding period to reduce taxes, could be a viable solution.

Conclusion

If the summit is successful, it could mark a turning point for the crypto market, reversing the current bearish trend. If not, we could see more selling pressure, causing the market to fall further.
