Written by Ohris M. Greyoon, Blockchain & Crypto Expert
- Trump Accounts Initiative: U.S. Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent announced that the Trump Accounts program will provide a $1,000 contribution for children born between 2025 and 2028, aiming to increase financial market participation among American families and enhance confidence in capitalism.
- Expanding Market Participation: Bessent noted that approximately 38% of Americans currently do not own equities, and the introduction of Trump Accounts is expected to bridge the gap between Main Street and Wall Street, promoting broader market engagement.
- Potential for Crypto Assets: The Trump administration is pushing to open the retirement market to crypto assets, with Bessent highlighting that Americans will soon be able to use retirement savings to invest in cryptocurrencies, further driving the adoption of digital assets.
- Growth of ETF Market: As of January 2024, Bitcoin ETFs have accumulated $57 billion in inflows, indicating increasing interest from institutional investors in crypto assets, despite Bitcoin's price having fallen over 30% from its peak.
