During his father’s second presidential campaign, Eric Trump — EVP of the Trump Organization — admitted that his interest in crypto grew once he saw firsthand how difficult it was for crypto firms to access banking services.
He previously told CNBC that the Trump family entered crypto not as a gamble, but as “a form of resistance,” calling themselves “the most canceled company on Earth.” To him, crypto became a way to counter what he described as systemic financial exclusion.
Trump later told the Wall Street Journal that the same way banks had refused to work with conservatives, they also excluded crypto companies. This echoed what industry leaders call “Operation Chokepoint 2.0” — an effort where regulators allegedly pressured banks to deny services to politically unpopular sectors.
Hester Peirce, SEC Commissioner, urged the agency in December to “stop the chokepoint aspect of government regulation.” Since then, the SEC has shifted gears, halting “regulation by enforcement,” launching a dedicated Crypto Task Force, and even rolling out Project Crypto to modernize securities laws.
Earlier this month, President Trump signed an executive order barring banks from refusing services based on political or religious beliefs. It also instructs regulators to audit institutions for discriminatory practices — a direct blow against financial censorship.
Still, critics argue that Trump-linked ventures — including World Liberty Financial’s USD1 stablecoin and the official TRUMP memecoin — could encourage corruption or pose risks to U.S. financial stability. Yet Trump defends memecoins as a “powerful gateway” into digital assets, saying:
“If somebody wants to buy $TRUMP, congratulations — now you have access to Bitcoin, Ethereum, USD1, and the U.S. dollar.”
He finished by highlighting the potential of real-world asset tokenization (RWA), hinting at the possibility of tokenizing iconic properties like Trump Tower:
“Why can’t I tokenize this and let billions of people invest? They love New York, they love Fifth Avenue, and yes, they love Trump.”
Crypto is once again at the center of U.S. politics — and this time, it may shape the financial future.

Savā pirmajā dienā atpakaļ Baltajā namā prezidents Donalds Tramps atcēla 78 Džo Baidena izpildu rīkojumus, taču viena pārsteidzoša aizturēšana izraisīja kriptovalūtu viļņošanos: izpildrīkojums 14067. Pazīstams ar to, ka pavēra ceļu “Operation Choke Point 2.0” šai pretrunīgajai. rīkojums ir plaši kritizēts par kriptovalūtu skrūvju pievilkšanu, jo īpaši ierobežojot piekļuvi banku pakalpojumiem.

Kritiķi apgalvo, ka EO 14067 pilnvaroja ASV regulatorus, piemēram, SEC un FDIC, agresīvi ierobežot kriptovalūtu uzņēmumus. Daudzi vaino šo sistēmu tādu kriptogrāfiju draudzīgu banku kā Silvergate Bank un Signature Bank sabrukumā, atstājot nozari nedrošā situācijā.

Iedomājies: tu esi kriptoprojekts, tev ir viss, lai uzsāktu, bet banka saka «nestrādājam ar jums» — un tas nav joks. Tā radās jauna kriptokonspirācija: Operation Choke Point 2.0.
🧩 Kas tas par stāstu?
🔍 Pēc tam, kad iepriekš bankas slēdza kontus ārpusbiržas aizdevējiem un maksātājiem, tagad tās sākušas slēgt kontus, strādājot ar kriptovalūtām — gadiem ilgi neoficiāli, bet masveidā. FDIC, Fed un OCC it kā izdarījuši spiedienu uz bankām klusējot.
