United States changes executive-branch digital-asset policy

President Donald Trump signed an order promoting lawful public-blockchain use and creating a presidential working group on digital-asset markets.

The order revoked the prior administration's 2022 digital-assets order, opposed a U.S. central-bank digital currency, and directed work on a federal framework. It also asked the group to evaluate a national digital-asset stockpile rather than immediately creating one.
