Bitcoin held above $72,500 yesterday, pulling back today to around $74,000. Ethereum has also recovered, trading above $2,000; however, this does not change the bearish market observed in recent weeks.
Meanwhile, yesterday, US Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent put an end to the discussion about the digital dollar at a White House briefing, stating that CBDCs are off the agenda. According to Bessent, a central bank digital currency would be the first step towards tracking citizens' transactions—and this is why the Trump administration categorically rejects the idea. This stance is not new: back in January 2025, during hearings for his nomination, Bessent stated that he sees no reason to create an American CBDC, adding that such a tool is only needed by countries without other investment alternatives. Republican lawmakers have long shared this position, citing the risks of government surveillance over financial transactions.
Instead of a CBDC, Washington is betting on private digital assets and stablecoins. Bessent called on Congress to expedite the passage of the CLARITY Act, directly addressing both chambers: "So I would urge the House of Representatives and the Senate to finalize the development of Clarity." The GENIUS Act bill on stablecoins has already received bipartisan support—the Secretary called this an important precedent. Trump, in turn, wrote on Truth Social that his administration is codifying a market structure for digital assets that is resilient to future challenges, which cannot be destroyed by crypto-haters.
