Trump had previously been a harsh critic of cryptocurrency, saying in 2021 that it “seems like a scam,” but he flipped in the following years. He spoke at last year’s bitcoin conference, made a series of promises to support crypto in office and now calls himself “the crypto president.”

Vice President JD Vance and the sons of President Donald Trump, Eric and Donald Trump Jr., spoke at the Bitcoin 2025 Conference in Las Vegas on Wednesday, hyping the cryptocurrency and promising to do everything in their power to ensure a friendly regulatory environment. And it’s just the latest reminder that the Trump regime is all-in on crypto.

Vice President JD Vance delivered the keynote address at the Bitcoin 2025 Conference in Las Vegas, where he decried regulators and celebrated the administration's aggressive promotion of cryptocurrency.
