The United States is about to become a 'Bitcoin Superpower', according to the statement of Trump's digital asset director.

At the Bitcoin 2025 Conference, the session titled "Turning America into a Global Bitcoin Superpower" conveyed a clear message: the United States is committed to adopting Bitcoin (BTC) and leading the global market. The keynote speakers were Bo Hines, the Executive Director of the White House on digital assets, and Tyler Williams from the U.S. Department of the Treasury, along with host Miles Jennings, who outlined the government's strong strategy to make the country a leading nation in the field of cryptocurrency. Integrating cryptocurrency with the 'legacy financial system' "We are on our way to becoming the leading Bitcoin superpower in the world," Hines declared, emphasizing that this initiative transcends partisan politics. He described this movement as "a revolution in our financial system" that requires immediate action. Jennings pointed out the important management measures currently being developed. He stated, "If the bill becomes law, we will play a key role in integrating Bitcoin, stablecoins, and other digital assets with the legacy financial system." He noted that this integration will be facilitated through the pending stablecoin legislation. Hines emphasized the importance of modernizing the payment system, stating: "Updating the payment system is necessary and we are making significant progress." He noted that the upcoming law on market structure will clarify the regulatory context for intermediaries such as exchanges and brokers, determining whether digital assets will be classified as securities or commodities. Encouraging innovation in the field of cryptocurrency, Hines remarked, "We want people to innovate here. We cannot let the fear of regulatory consequences stifle creativity." He urged innovators who have moved abroad to consider returning, stating, "Our message to those who have gone abroad is: welcome back home." "Bitcoin is the gold standard" Williams emphasized the need for any new regulations to align with the unique nature of decentralized finance (DeFi). He explained: "Traditional financial markets operate on a principal-agent model, but cryptocurrency is shifting us to a peer-to-peer structure." He noted that regulatory support for the trading product market on the exchange (ETP) has led to an increase in Bitcoin adoption by institutions, and he believes that similar outcomes could arise from laws regarding market structure and stablecoins. Hines has made a particularly optimistic statement, declaring that, "Bitcoin is truly the gold standard. This is an asset that we should mine on behalf of the people of America. We want to get as much as we can." Tyler Williams agrees with this viewpoint, stating, "We are making significant investments in digital assets." Hines concluded the session with a strong commitment: "You will certainly see America rise to become the world's Bitcoin superpower."
