Updated: Jan 08 2026- Crypto Regulatory Framework: The passage of the GENIUS Act in July 2025 establishes the first comprehensive federal regulatory framework for stablecoins, marking a significant legislative advancement in the U.S. crypto landscape, which is expected to enhance market stability and attract more investors.
- Reduced Market Volatility: Lorenzo Valente from ARK Invest noted that the long-term plans of new market entrants will lower volatility in the crypto space, although institutional adoption in early 2025 remains limited, indicating that the market is still in a developmental phase.
- Tax Policy Reform: Trump's plan to implement a de minimis tax exemption for small transactions is expected to relieve individuals from capital gains taxes on digital asset transactions, thereby reducing the tax burden on everyday transactions and promoting the use of cryptocurrencies in daily life.
- Strategic Reserve Initiative: The U.S. Strategic Bitcoin Reserve initiative launched by Trump in March 2025 aims to make Bitcoin a government reserve asset, with plans to purchase Bitcoin to increase its scarcity value, thereby enhancing market confidence in Bitcoin as a viable asset.
