Trump Administration’s Crypto Pivot Seen as Key to U.S. Financial Dominance

Sergey Nazarov, the founder of Chainlink (LINK), sees the Trump Administration’s newfound support for digital assets as a potential catalyst for reinforcing the United States’ dominance in global finance.

During the recent crypto meeting at the White House, Nazarov acknowledged the shift in approach from President Trump’s advisors, who have begun to take the sector seriously after years of restrictive policies.

Expressing his appreciation, Nazarov highlighted his frustration with previous regulatory hurdles that limited his ability to contribute to the U.S. financial system’s evolution. He emphasized that blockchain, crypto, and Web3 technologies represent the future of finance, and ensuring American leadership in this transition is crucial. He commended key figures at the summit for their engagement, calling it a pivotal moment for the country’s financial strategy.
