Circle Internet Group Stock Soars After White House Crypto Meeting
Circle Internet Group stock is up 8.7% as of 3:35 p.m. ET on August 19, 2026, after a meeting between President Donald Trump and crypto-industry executives.
The White House meeting comes a day after the SEC proposed easing registration rules for some crypto companies.
Circle's income is directly related to USDC minting, and passage of the Clarity Act could be a game changer for the company.
However, there's no guarantee that the Clarity Act will pass, and Circle stock may not continue its upward trend.
