White House Crypto Czar Enthusiastically Advocates for Stablecoin Regulation

US Administration's Commitment to Stablecoin Legislation

David Sacks, the Chair of the President's Council of Advisors on Science and Technology, also recognized as the White House AI and crypto czar, highlighted the US administration's dedication to enacting stablecoin legislation during a recent public engagement with Senate and House leaders.

Collaboration with Lawmakers

"We're excited about working with both the House and Senate on stablecoin legislation," Sacks remarked. He showed keen interest in partnering with legislators, underlining that stablecoins could bolster the US dollar's global supremacy by encouraging its digital use as a worldwide reserve currency, potentially unlocking trillions in demand.

Importance of Regulatory Clarity

Sacks stressed the necessity for clear regulations, criticizing the Securities and Exchange Commission's past arbitrary prosecutions that drove crypto innovation overseas. He concluded by stating the administration's intention to explore the viability of establishing a Bitcoin reserve as part of its comprehensive digital asset strategy.
