Crypto Missing From Trump’s National Security Strategy
-

The Trump administration’s new national security strategy makes no mention of cryptocurrency or blockchain, despite Trump repeatedly framing crypto as a geopolitical battleground with China.
Instead, the document highlights AI, quantum computing, and biotech as core technologies essential to U.S. security.
This omission is striking given recent policy pushes: the GENIUS Act, a crypto task force, a ban on a CBDC, and the creation of a federal Bitcoin reserve.
Markets reacted cautiously, with BTC trading under $90K as investors shift focus to this week’s Fed rate decision. -
Surprising omission given crypto’s growing geopolitical impact.

Excludes a major risk vector from national planning.
