Former CFTC Chairman: Trump is the first crypto president in the United States

Chris Giancarlo, former chairman of the US Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC), recently emphasized the key role of former US President Donald Trump in the cryptocurrency industry. At a cryptocurrency policy summit held in Washington, DC, Giancarlo called Trump the "first crypto president" due to the Trump administration's approval of bitcoin futures in its first year in office.

He also emphasized the importance of approving bitcoin futures during the Trump administration: the sustained success of this regulated futures market helps ensure that bitcoin is priced in US dollars, and he emphasized the importance of bitcoin for the future of digital assets.
