In recent developments, the U.S. administration under President Trump has signaled intentions to loosen cryptocurrency regulations. While this move is anticipated to boost the crypto industry’s growth, experts caution that reduced oversight could inadvertently benefit extremist groups by facilitating easier fundraising and financial movements.  

Additionally, analysts predict that the forthcoming crypto-friendly regulations might lead to a significant financial boom, followed by a potential bust, affecting the broader financial system. The proposed rules aim to reduce oversight, potentially making markets less transparent and more volatile.
