President-elect Donald Trump's team is considering establishing a dedicated crypto policy position within the White House, signaling increased focus on cryptocurrency regulation and strategy.
Trump's team is exploring the creation of a White House position centered on crypto policy, potentially akin to a "crypto czar," as part of broader efforts to reshape US cryptocurrency regulation.
Key nominations include Cantor Fitzgerald CEO Howard Lutnick for Commerce Secretary and Robert F. Kennedy Jr. for Health and Human Services, reflecting Trump's crypto-positive stance.
Prominent crypto executives, including those from Ripple, Circle, and Coinbase, have been in dialogue with Trump’s team regarding personnel decisions and the future direction of crypto regulation.

Bitwise has registered a trust for a proposed spot Solana ETF in Delaware, signaling its intent to file with the SEC and join competitors like VanEck and Canary Capital in pursuing regulatory approval.
Bitwise registered a statutory trust in Delaware for a Solana ETF, aiming to track the cryptocurrency’s price and potentially file the necessary S-1 and 19b-4 forms with the SEC.
The ETF would compete with proposals from VanEck and Canary Capital, with some experts optimistic about approval under the incoming Trump administration’s crypto-friendly stance.
Solana has been a strong performer during the current bull cycle, but its bear-cycle struggles and relatively smaller inflows for non-Bitcoin or Ether ETFs could temper enthusiasm for the proposed product.

Michael Saylor is poised to deliver a 3-minute pitch to Microsoft, advocating Bitcoin as a strategic investment to bolster financial resilience and position the company as a pioneer in cryptocurrency adoption.
Michael Saylor’s pitch emphasizes Bitcoin as a hedge against inflation and currency devaluation, proposing its integration into Microsoft’s financial strategy to enhance stability.
A potential Bitcoin investment by Microsoft could set a precedent for other corporations, encouraging broader adoption and mainstream acceptance of digital currencies.
Regulatory concerns, market volatility, and infrastructure needs are potential hurdles, yet Saylor argues the benefits could outweigh the risks for forward-thinking corporations like Microsoft.
