Trump Mulls JPMorgan CEO For Treasury Secretary, Bullish Or Bearish For Crypto?

Published by

After picking pro-Bitcoin JD Vance as Vice President, US Donald Trump consider bringing JPMorgan Chase CEO for the US Treasury Secretary role. Trump also revealed that he will not oust current U.S. Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell before his term ends. Bitcoin maxis and crypto market ‘shake head’ as he plans to bring anti-Bitcoin Jamie Dimon.

Crypto Community Reacts To Trump’s Tapping Jamie Dimon

Republican presidential candidate nominee Donald Trump in a recent Bloomberg interview talked on topics such as Jerome Powell, US economy, taxes, tariffs, and more. The former president said he will not try ousting Fed Chair Jerome Powell before his term ends in 2026.

Trump is considering JPMorgan CEO Jamie Dimon for Treasury Secretary replacing Janet Yellen, if he wins in November. He had until recently been critical of Dimon and even called Dimon a “Highly overrated Globalist” last year.

The crypto community expressed disappointment as Trump considered anti-Bitcoin Jamie Dimon for the top job at the Treasury Department. While Yellen has been cautious over crypto and Bitcoin, Dimon believes Bitcoin is a “fraud” and “Ponzi scheme.”

Bitcoin maxi including Fred Kruger hopes for a change and believes Donald Trump is being diplomatic here. The crypto market seeks a crypto-friendly nominee and the election turns more crypto-focused. The industry also eyes clear rulemaking on crypto for regulatory clarity.
