Stars cannot align more positively for crypto in the U.S., the world’s largest economy, if the latest media reports are anything to go by. Still, one key indicator shows a lack of excitement among U.S. investors.<\/p>\n

Late Thursday, Bloomberg reported<\/a> that President-elect Donald Trump will likely issue an executive order announcing crypto\u00a0as a national imperative or priority with a voice in his administration. Trump could also announce the creation of a crypto advisory that will advocate the digital asset industry’s policy goals.<\/p>\n

The report comes amid heightened expectations that<\/a> Trump will announce an executive order supporting the creation of a strategic bitcoin reserve on the first day of the office.<\/p>\n

Trump, a one-time crypto skeptic, embraced the industry in the lead-up to the November elections, raising hopes for easier regulations and widespread adoption of digital assets. On Friday, the crypto industry will host the “Inaugural Crypto Ball” in support of Trump, hoping he will live up to his poll promises after taking office on Jan. 20.<\/p>\n

An executive order declaring the creation of a strategic bitcoin reserve and policy priority would starkly contrast the largely anti-crypto Biden administration, under which agencies took more than 100 enforcement actions against the industry.<\/p>\n

Still, BTC is trading at a slight discount on the Nasdaq-listed Coinbase exchange relative to the global bourse Binance Holdings. It’s a sign of muted stateside demand for the leading cryptocurrency.<\/p>\n

The chart by CryptoQuant shows gyrations in the Coinbase premium indicator, which measures the spread between BTC’s price on Coinbase and Binance.<\/p>\n

BTC’s November-December surge from $70,000 to over $108,000 was led by U.S. investors, as evident from the consistent Coinbase premium during that period. <\/p>\n

There’s yet to be comparable bullish pricing on Coinbase, despite expectations for significant positive developments in the U.S. Perhaps much of the Trump optimism was factored in during the November-December rally, and stateside traders are now waiting to see if the incoming President to follow through on his promises.<\/p>\n

BTC changed hands at $101,600 at press time. Prices have largely traded between $90,000 and $108,000 since mid-December, CoinDesk Indices data<\/a> shows.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
