🔈🔈 TRUMP REAFFIRMS HIS SUPPORT FOR CRYPTO – BTC SURGES ABOVE $70,000 🇺🇸
💥 On August 19, 2026, President Donald Trump held a meeting at the White House with several major leaders from the Crypto and Fintech industries, alongside SEC Chairman Paul Atkins and CFTC Chairman Michael Selig.
👑 Key takeaways:
✔️ “The war on Crypto is over” – Trump stated that his administration has ended its hostile approach toward the Crypto industry and wants the U.S. to remain the global leader in Bitcoin, Crypto, prediction markets, and AI.
✔️ Pushes for the CLARITY Act – Trump urged Congress to quickly pass a “fair” version of the CLARITY Act to establish clearer regulations for the Crypto industry and help the U.S. compete with China.
✔️ U.S. may buy more Bitcoin – Trump said the government has discussed the possibility of purchasing a significant amount of Bitcoin, while arguing that Crypto could also help strengthen the U.S. dollar.
✔️ Hyperliquid gets a mention – Trump said the CFTC is working on ways to bring Hyperliquid into the U.S. market under an appropriate regulatory framework. The news triggered a strong move in HYPE.
📈 The market reacted immediately.
BTC gained more than 7% on August 19, briefly breaking above $70,000 for the first time since early June.
Crypto-related stocks also rallied, with Coinbase gaining around 10%, Strategy up 13%, and Circle rising roughly 10%.
🔥 The bigger picture: Trump is not only reaffirming his pro-Crypto stance but is also directly pushing policies that could have a major impact on the industry.
If the CLARITY Act passes, the U.S. actually moves forward with additional Bitcoin purchases, and Hyperliquid gains a compliant path into the U.S. market, these could become major milestones for Crypto adoption.
📌 Crypto is once again taking center stage in Washington’s agenda.
