Former U.S. President Donald Trump has once again voiced strong support for the cryptocurrency industry, declaring that the United States is currently leading the global crypto space—and intends to stay ahead.
Posting on his social media platform on May 23, Trump wrote:
“The United States is leading in the fields of cryptocurrency, Bitcoin, and others. We will maintain this position!”
The comment aligns with Trump's recent pro-crypto shift, including his public association with the $TRUMP meme coin and plans to attend a crypto-themed dinner later this week. He has also gained backing from a growing number of crypto-native voters and donors.
Trump’s latest message comes amid an evolving regulatory landscape in the US, with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) dropping several high-profile cases and new legislation in progress that may further support the crypto industry.
Analysts say Trump’s comments signal a potential political alignment with digital assets ahead of the 2024 elections—positioning crypto as a campaign issue and the US as a global blockchain leader.
