U.S. Representative French Hill in a recent CNBC interview, suggests that Donald Trump’s administration would adopt the recently passed FIT21 bill to create clear rules for digital asset management and consumer protection.
This suggestion comes as the former U.S. president Donald Trump and supporting Republican lawmakers advocate for a more crypto-friendly regulatory environment in anticipation of the upcoming U.S. presidential election.
As per Hill, the potential presidency of Trump will adopt the bill to help innovation and consumer protection is well established. This regulatory clarity is seen as crucial for maintaining U.S. competitiveness in the burgeoning digital asset space.
However, in a recent report, Donald Trump has made statements supporting Bitcoin, suggesting the U.S. should capitalize on producing the cryptocurrency domestically to counter foreign economic influences.
Such comments are in line with opinions from other political leaders, including Vivek Ramaswamy and Senator Cynthia Lummis as they urge for the integration of bitcoin into the national financial plan to strengthen the U.S monetary assets.
Senator Cynthia Lummis, also called “Crypto Queen,” has been vocal about integrating Bitcoin into the U.S. financial portfolio. In her view, bitcoin represents a robust store of value that could enhance the strategic diversity of the nation’s reserves.
