<p>Mark Yusko of Morgan Creek Capital Management, recently opened up about Trump’s approach to cryptocurrencies, revealing that Trump and his son are heavily investing in assets like HBAR and XRP, which might be approved for ETFs next year.&nbsp;He also said that Trump is heavily investing in Bitcoin as well.</p>   
<p><a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mrrdFMrinqc" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener nofollow">In an interview with Scott Melker,</a> he said that here’s even talk about exempting the U.S.-based <a href="https://coinpedia.org/news/tax-free-crypto-in-u-s-donald-trumps-plan-to-eliminate-tax-for-xrp-ada-and-more/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">cryptocurrencies from capital gains tax</a>. This move could create a major shift in how crypto is treated in the U.S. market.</p>   
<p>Despite XRP's massive market cap, Yusko isn’t a fan. He believes XRP and Cardano lack real development. Unlike Circle’s stablecoin, which is backed by actual dollars, Yusko sees these coins as missing true innovation, even though they have high market value.</p>   
<h2 class="wp-block-heading" id="h-pro-crypto-leadership-a-shift-in-power"><strong>Pro-Crypto Leadership: A Shift in Power</strong></h2>   
<p>Yusko also touched on Trump’s visit to Nashville, where he spoke directly to voters. He mentioned Trump’s promises, including firing <a href="https://coinpedia.org/news/big-breaking-sec-chair-gary-gensler-officially-resigns/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">SEC head Gary Gensler</a>, and how Trump is under pressure to make moves, such as freeing Ross Ulbricht and creating a Bitcoin Strategic Reserve.</p>   
<p>Yusko believes the current U.S. leadership is largely supportive of crypto. Key figures like Scott Bessent and the new SEC head are crypto-friendly, which could lead to positive changes in the industry. It’s a shift that could help propel the <a href="https://coinpedia.org/news/crypto-news-today-dec-20-2024-bitcoin-falls-to-96k-as-market-stumbles/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">crypto market</a> forward.</p>   [post_titles_links postid="395341"]   
<h3 class="wp-block-heading" id="h-the-technologist-revolution-billionaires-taking-control"><strong>The Technologist Revolution: Billionaires Taking Control</strong></h3>   
<p>Yusko said that it’s not just Trump – the real story is the rise of "technologist billionaires." These innovators are pushing for changes that benefit both the tech industry and the nation. It’s not about political parties anymore; it’s about the tech leaders who want to shape the future.</p>   
<p>With all these shifts in power, Yusko believes we’re entering a new phase for crypto, one driven by smart, tech-savvy leaders. Trump, learning from global leaders like Putin, seems ready to let these experts lead the charge in innovation. </p>   [article_inside_subscriber_shortcode title="Never Miss a Beat in the Crypto World!" description="Stay ahead with breaking news, expert analysis, and real-time updates on the latest trends in Bitcoin, altcoins, DeFi, NFTs, and more." category_name="News" category_id="6"]
