With only 33 hours left until the first cryptocurrency summit at the White House, the crypto market's attention is undoubtedly focused on this high-profile meeting that could impact the future of the industry.
The meeting will take place from 2:30 AM to 6:30 AM Beijing time on March 8. President Trump will personally attend and deliver a speech, joining AI and cryptocurrency mogul David Sacks, acting SEC Chair Mark Uyeda, acting CFTC Chair Caroline Pham, and numerous leaders from the crypto industry.
However, the official invitation email revealed no details other than the time and location. The specific agenda and discussion topics of the meeting remain shrouded in mystery. This article will outline current market predictions regarding the meeting's content and explore important policy trends.
Prediction 1: The Crypto Summit Will Announce the U.S. Crypto Strategic Reserve
U.S. Secretary of Commerce Howard Lutnick recently revealed that President Trump clearly believes in the existence of a Bitcoin strategic reserve. He stated, "The Bitcoin strategic reserve is something the president is interested in. He has talked about this topic throughout his campaign. I believe this model will be announced on Friday, at which point we will formally announce the relevant plans."
Last Sunday, Trump announced that he had instructed a working group to advance the U.S. crypto strategic reserve plan, covering major crypto assets such as BTC, ETH, XRP, SOL, and ADA.
Meanwhile, over 20 states across the U.S. have proposed or are considering legislation related to Bitcoin reserves, covering topics such as public fund allocation, tax incentives, and regulatory frameworks.
Prediction 2: Bitcoin Will Be Treated Differently from Altcoins
U.S. Secretary of Commerce Howard Lutnick stated that under Trump's plan, Bitcoin will be given a "unique status." He pointed out, "Bitcoin is one thing, while other cryptocurrencies and tokens, I believe they will be treated differently—though overall positively, the approach will vary."
The U.S. government may adopt differentiated regulatory and strategic positioning for Bitcoin and other altcoins. Combined with the previously announced strategic reserve plan, the market speculates that Bitcoin will occupy a primary position in the reserves, while other tokens may be held according to some algorithm or specific ratio.
Jagdeep Sidhu, chairman of the Syscoin Foundation, stated, "In my view, this will become the primary topic of the summit. It is clear that the government is inclined to include a broader asset class, but I suspect they will be forced to defend this position at the summit, as many industry leaders have questioned the decision to include altcoins like XRP, ADA, and SOL in the reserves."
Prediction 3: New Regulations on Stablecoin Oversight May Be Introduced, U.S. Might Learn from International Experience
Stablecoin regulation has long been a focal point of policy discussions and is expected to be one of the core topics of this summit. Currently, there are three stablecoin bills progressing in the U.S. Congress: the STABLE Act, the GENIUS Act, and the Waters proposal, which require issuers to maintain a 1:1 reserve, only hold highly liquid assets like U.S. Treasury securities, and undergo monthly audits.
Todd Ruoff, CEO of Autonomy, believes that this summit may draw from international regulatory models. He stated, "Looking at recent examples like Hong Kong's licensing system and the EU's MiCA rules, we may see U.S. policymakers push for clear reserve requirements, greater transparency, and strong consumer protections."
Prediction 4: Policies Related to Capital Gains Tax May Provide Tax Benefits for U.S. Crypto Projects
On the morning of March 4, Mike Alfred, co-founder of Digital Assets Data, tweeted that the Trump administration might announce a zero capital gains tax policy for cryptocurrency sales at the crypto summit on Friday. However, the tweet has since been deleted, and specific details have not been officially confirmed.
Previously, The Street reported that Eric Trump, the president's son, revealed that top U.S. crypto projects, including XRP and HBAR, might enjoy a zero capital gains tax policy, while non-U.S. projects could face capital gains taxes of up to 30%. If this policy is implemented, it could significantly impact the market landscape and further encourage crypto companies to relocate to the U.S.
Meanwhile, crypto KOL @BullNakedCrypto also expressed hope for this policy. He predicted that the Trump administration might offer tax exemptions for all cryptocurrency companies relocating to the U.S. to attract global crypto enterprises.
However, Dennis Porter, co-founder of the Satoshi Action Fund, expressed caution regarding the complete elimination of crypto taxes. He believes that a total repeal of crypto taxes is unrealistic in the short term, but changes like a "minimum exemption" could be pursued.
Prediction 5: The Integration of AI and Crypto May Become a Topic, Exploring AI Applications in the Crypto Market
The role of AI and cryptocurrency mogul David Sacks is crucial and is expected to play a central influence at this summit.
According to The Street, Powell noted, "Given Sacks' background, he may focus the discussion on AI applications in the crypto market, such as fraud detection, compliance automation, and risk management. Additionally, a broader question is how AI-driven financial systems will collaborate with decentralized finance (DeFi)."
If David Sacks can promote the establishment of a smarter, more efficient regulatory system, AI may become a key tool for transparency in the crypto market.
The interplay between policymakers, industry leaders, and market participants will converge at this summit, potentially triggering a profound transformation in the global crypto market landscape. This is not just a policy discussion; it may also represent a significant turning point in the industry's development over the coming years.
Although the specific agenda of the meeting remains shrouded in mystery, market expectations have reached a peak. Every statement and decision made at the summit could spark market upheaval. And when the curtain falls, new rules of the game may have quietly been established, ushering in a new era for the crypto industry.
