President-Elect Donald Trump’s team is evaluating the creation of a dedicated White House role for cryptocurrency policy,
according
to Bloomberg. If established, the role would be the first position of its kind, with responsibilities spanning crypto regulation. The role would also act as a bridge between Congress, the White House, and federal agencies like the SEC and CFTC. Trump has supported the crypto industry, pledging to dismiss SEC Chair Gary Gensler as part of his campaign promises. This week, he reportedly met with Coinbase CEO Brian Armstrong, and crypto lawyer Teresa Goody Guillén is under consideration for the role of SEC Chair.
