ChainCatcher news, according to Forbes, when the election results clearly indicated that Trump would return to the White House, the crypto market began to rise as expected, reflecting optimism about the potential relief the Trump administration might bring to the industry. It is undeniable that Trump will be more supportive of the crypto industry than the current president, Biden. However, there remains uncertainty regarding his level of involvement in promoting industry development and whether relevant legislation can be passed amid a busy legislative agenda.All candidates for positions such as leaders of the Securities and Exchange Commission, the Commodity Futures Trading Commission, and the Treasury may share favorable views towards the industry like Trump, but it is unclear how much of a priority this issue will be seen. The Trump administration may prioritize deregulation for most industries. However, the crypto industry may be the only sector that runs counter to this trend, as industry members are eager for regulatory clarity. The priority these regulatory agencies place on the crypto industry will determine the duration of this process, but progress in reducing some of the current lawsuits from the SEC may be quicker. However, it is more likely that these agencies will at least provide some form of favorable regulatory guidance, even if not a specific rule.
