Trump unleashes crypto 'sea change' in first 100 days
- President Donald Trump initiated a pro-cryptocurrency agenda during his first 100 days in office starting January 20, 2025, in Washington, D.C.

- Trump’s policies and personal crypto investments may reshape U.S. Regulations and markets but also raise scrutiny over conflicts of interest and potential systemic risks.
