President Trump has been the most pro-cryptocurrency president ever to step foot in the White House.

However, he’s not the only one in the White House who’s been a big cryptocurrency supporter.

Vice President JD Vance has also advocated for cryptocurrencies during his time in office.

Last week, Vance was selected to be the keynote speaker at the 2025 Bitcoin Conference in Las Vegas.

In his speech, Vance described the White House’s goal to make Bitcoin a long-term strategic asset.

He also discussed introducing a regulatory framework that would allow institutions to adopt Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies without hesitation.

Vance later discussed China’s neglect of Bitcoin and why the United States should take advantage of China ‘s stance.

Here’s a clip of Vance speaking at teh Conference:

Yahoo Finance reported more on Vance’s speech:

A major focus of Vance’s speech was a reiteration of the pro-crypto regulatory approach of the Trump administration. In just five months, the White House has already taken a number of big steps — including a major shakeup at the Securities and Exchange Commission to make it more crypto-friendly, and the creation of the Strategic Bitcoin Reserve.

All of this is good news for Bitcoin investors, of course. It opens the door to more innovation, economic growth, and wealth for everyday Americans. As Vance pointed out in his keynote, millions of Americans now own Bitcoin. So any moves that can help Bitcoin grow and prosper will help everyday Americans as they save for the future.

And there’s more good news on the way. Next up, says Vance, is new legislation for dollar-pegged stablecoins, as well as a comprehensive regulatory framework for crypto that will help to establish the official rules of the road for Bitcoin. Once that’s in place, the mainstream adoption of crypto can really start. Institutions will no longer have an excuse not to get involved with Bitcoin.

Bitcoin as a long-term strategic asset

Vance also emphasized that the White House is thinking about Bitcoin as a long-term strategic asset. That was the stated purpose of creating the Strategic Bitcoin Reserve back in March. The next major step, says Vance, is new legislation that will codify the Strategic Bitcoin Reserve in law. Otherwise, the next administration could just as easily reverse the existing executive order with a new executive order of its own.

There’s a key reason the White House is thinking about Bitcoin as a “strategically important asset” these days. And that’s because Bitcoin represents the sort of American values — innovation, entrepreneurship, freedom, and lack of censorship — that are anathema to countries such as China. In fact, as Vance pointed out, the U.S. should look to use Bitcoin as a source of competitive advantage against China.
