Trump Touts US Leadership in Crypto and AI, Criticizes Biden Admin
President Donald Trump met with technology executives and financial regulators at the White House on Wednesday to discuss US leadership in cryptocurrency and artificial intelligence (AI). The meeting included representatives from major cryptocurrency companies like Coinbase, Ripple, and Nasdaq.
Trump emphasized that the US is 'leading by a lot' in AI and wants to maintain its position. He also criticized the Biden administration's approach to cryptocurrency, stating that it discouraged innovation under their policies.
The meeting came a day after the SEC proposed new rules that would provide exemptions for certain cryptocurrency token offerings, potentially making it easier for companies to issue tokens and raise money.
