THE NEXT 4 YEARS WILL BE THE WILD WEST (IN A GOOD SENSE)

Scott Bessent, Secretary of the U.S. Treasury, has just officially declared the end of the "on-again, off-again"

In a speech to the American Bankers Association (ABA), he announced the removal of regulatory barriers to Bitcoin and blockchain.

This is a 180-degree paradigm shift.

Key points from the Trump administration's new plan:

1. End the stifle of innovation: The previous administration (the so-called "anti-crypto army") tried to kill the industry through lawsuits (lawfare) and cutting off banks (Choke Point 2.0). Bessent says it bluntly: it's over. The U.S. is to be the "crypto capital of the world."

2. Deregulation instead of prohibition: The Treasury Department and the Financial Stability Council (FSOC) are changing course. Instead of nitpicking ("systemic risk"), they will remove regulations that hinder growth. They want blockchain to be part of the system, not the enemy.

3. Support for Stablecoins: The GENIUS Act aims to provide legal clarity for the stablecoin market, which is expected to grow into trillions of dollars and strengthen the dollar's global dominance.

Conclusion:

Institutions have been given the green light: "You can build, you won't go to jail for it."

If you thought the 2024 bull market was big, buckle up.

The era of unfettered institutional adoption is coming.
