Circle CEO expects US executive orders to boost crypto adoption
Positive change for crypto with incoming Trump orders, he claims.

Circle CEO Jeremy Allaire anticipates ‘imminent’ executive orders from incoming US President Donald Trump that could reshape the financial landscape for cryptocurrency. Allaire, whose company issues the USDC stablecoin, expects these orders to allow banks to trade crypto, offer crypto investments to high-net-worth clients, and even hold digital assets in portfolios.
Trump, who has positioned himself as a ‘crypto president,’ is expected to take action after his inauguration to reduce regulatory barriers for crypto and promote widespread adoption. Allaire pointed to repealing the Securities and Exchange Commission’s Staff Accounting Bulletin 121, which has made it challenging for banks and financial institutions to hold crypto assets on their balance sheets.
Allaire also forecasted increased legislative activity surrounding digital asset regulations, with Congress expected to take a more active role in the coming weeks. Circle’s USDC is the world’s second-largest stablecoin, and Allaire’s comments signal growing optimism in the crypto sector following Trump’s election.
