Trump’s national security strategy is silent on crypto, blockchain

The Trump administration's latest national security strategy, which outlines its priorities, failed to mention cryptocurrency or blockchain, focusing instead on artificial intelligence and quantum computing as core national interests driving global technology standards. This omission is noteworthy given President Trump's previous statements expressing concern about China's dominance in crypto and his desire for Bitcoin mining to occur in the US. Despite the silence, the document did mention preserving U.S. financial sector dominance through leadership in "digital finance and innovation," which could be interpreted as a nod to crypto. The administration has previously supported crypto policies, such as signing the GENIUS Act, creating a crypto task force, banning a central bank digital currency, and establishing a Bitcoin reserve from forfeited assets.
