Potential Shifts in Crypto Markets Under a Second Trump Presidency
Anticipated Crypto Market Changes
JPMorgan analysts foresee significant transformations in the crypto markets with a potential second Trump presidency, driven by a Republican-controlled Congress. They expect crypto-friendly policies to reshape both the regulatory and market landscapes.
Advancing Crypto Legislation
Key legislation like the Financial Innovation and Technology for the 21st Century Act (FIT21) and the Clarity for Payment Stablecoins Act of 2023 may be expedited. These bills aim to define the roles of the SEC and CFTC, establish stablecoin frameworks, and limit government-backed digital currencies, favoring private-sector solutions.
Collaborative Regulatory Environment
The SEC may shift from strict enforcement to a more collaborative regulatory approach. This could ease legal pressures on firms like Coinbase and potentially reduce barriers for companies such as Robinhood and Uniswap.
Easing Banking Restrictions
Reversing SEC's SAB 121 might enhance traditional banks' involvement in cryptocurrency custody. Leadership changes at the OCC and FDIC could also promote greater interaction between banks and digital assets.
Optimism for ETF Approvals
The market might anticipate optimism for spot ETFs, especially for XRP and Solana. However, ongoing legal issues regarding these assets' classification as securities could delay their approval.
Increased Investment Opportunities
Clearer regulations could boost venture capital, IPOs, and M&A activities. Initiatives like Wyoming’s DAO-friendly laws provide frameworks that could encourage further innovation in the crypto sector.
Unlikely Bitcoin Reserve
While the BITCOIN Act proposes Bitcoin as a U.S. strategic reserve asset, JPMorgan considers this an unlikely scenario.
JPMorgan concludes that these potential changes could drive growth and legitimacy for U.S. crypto markets, despite possible delays or political hurdles.
