The order may reshape financial access for crypto firms, potentially boosting market activity and fostering a pro-innovation environment in the US.
Donald Trump confirmed his decision to sign an executive order that aims to penalize banks for discriminating against Bitcoin and digital asset companies. The proposed actions target alleged financial discrimination practices, specifically “debanking” of crypto firms.

The executive order involves key figures such as Donald Trump, Changpeng Zhao of Binance, and Tyler Winklevoss of Gemini. Focus is on countering Jamie Dimon’s anti-crypto stance at JPMorgan, which has reportedly restricted banking access for crypto firms.
The action is expected to have immediate effects on the banking industry and the broader crypto market. Strengthening banking ties for crypto firms could boost market activity and encourage investment in the digital asset space. Tyler Winklevoss noted, “Jamie Dimon and his cronies are trying to undercut President Trump’s mandate to make America the pro innovation and the crypto capital of the world. We must fight back!”
Political implications include aligning the U.S. with a more pro-crypto stance, potentially solidifying its position as a crypto innovation hub. The economic impact may result in increased capital and market liquidity for major cryptocurrencies.
