Trump to Deliver Remarks at Major Crypto Summit

Donald Trump is set to make history as the first sitting U.S. president to speak at a cryptocurrency conference.

According to Blockworks, he will deliver a speech at their Digital Asset Summit in New York on March 20, marking a significant moment for the crypto industry.

Trump’s participation highlights a stark contrast to the regulatory crackdown seen under former President Joe Biden, during which federal agencies initiated over 100 enforcement actions against crypto firms. His appearance signals a more favorable stance toward digital assets, a shift that could influence the industry’s regulatory landscape.

Blockworks co-founder Jason Yanowitz reflected on how far the industry has come, noting that when the company first launched, even attracting banking professionals to its events was a challenge. Now, with 2,500 institutional participants expected at the summit, a sitting president addressing the audience is a testament to crypto’s growing influence.
