Strategy Prioritizes AI, Not Crypto, Despite Trump’s Pro-BTC Rhetoric

President Trump’s newly released national security strategy sidelines crypto entirely, even though he recently said the U.S. must prevent China from dominating the sector and wants all Bitcoin mining on American soil.
Instead, the strategy emphasizes advancing AI and quantum computing to preserve U.S. leadership.
Still, one section hints at digital finance by calling for the expansion of America’s “financial sector dominance”—language some see as a subtle nod to crypto’s growing influence.

AI takes the spotlight—crypto still waiting for policy alignment.
