Episode Details

Explore the seismic shift in U.S. crypto policy under Trump’s 2025 administration: a full-throttle pro-crypto agenda anchored by the GENIUS Act. We dive into the banning of a U.S. CBDC, the rise of regulated private stablecoins, and the geopolitics of a “digital dollar” powered by the private market. Learn how this policy supports Circle (USDC), favors issuers tied to Trump, and raises major governance and ethical risks. Can this revolution cement the U.S. as a global crypto power — or will it backfire in a tangle of conflicts of interest?
