At the inaugural White House crypto summit, Coinbase CEO Brian Armstrong shared insights on the positive impact of the Trump administration on the cryptocurrency industry. Armstrong remarked that President Trump "breathed life back into this industry over the last few years," especially after a period where the previous administration's approach felt like an "unlawful attack" on crypto ventures. He noted that Trump's leadership has played a pivotal role in bringing the industry back to the United States, resulting in promising developments.
In light of regulatory clarity, Coinbase is poised for significant growth, with plans to hire 1,000 new employees. Armstrong also addressed concerns regarding Bitcoin's volatility, emphasizing that the objective is not to eliminate fluctuations but to ensure a gradual increase in value over time. He underscored the importance of bipartisan support in establishing a stable regulatory framework, which is crucial for the long-term success and innovation within the crypto landscape.
