Leadership shift at the White House Crypto Council 🚨
Bo Hines is stepping down as Executive Director to head back to the private sector—though he’ll still advise on AI alongside David Sacks. His deputy, Patrick Witt, is set to take the helm.
Hines played a pivotal role in shaping the GENIUS Act and the broader pro-innovation crypto framework under the Trump administration. His move isn’t the end of that momentum—it’s a handoff.
The big question now: will Witt keep the same hard push against overregulation while deepening America’s role as a crypto leader? My guess—yes, but with his own playbo

🚨 White House drops its landmark 160‑page crypto policy report (from EO 14178), calling the shots on:
✅ Self‑custody as a right
✅ P2P use & DeFi supported
🚫 CBDCs rejected
📜 Clear regs & bank access
🌍 A roadmap to make the U.S. 🇺🇸 the global crypto capital
Industry hailed it as a major step—even though no details on the expected Strategic Bitcoin Reserve yet.
