Donald Trump

Donald Trump Jr. finds himself at the center of a new offensive in the U.S. Senate. Republican John Curtis, elected from Utah, is asking the judiciary committee to investigate the potential use of family ties to the presidency for financial purposes. He also wants Donald Trump Jr. and Hunter Biden to be subpoenaed to testify. For Donald Trump’s son, the senator notably cites his crypto activities, his links with predictive markets, and certain benefits received from foreign personalities. At this stage, it is a request for investigation, not a conclusion about possible offenses.

Scheduled for September 24 in Washington, the Trump-Xi summit is set to address tariffs, artificial intelligence, and sensitive technologies. This meeting would extend the trade détente, however many Chinese commitments remain contested by the United States.

Donald Trump wants to strengthen the oversight of artificial intelligence in the United States. On Saturday, the American president announced on Truth Social the creation of an "AI Force" and the upcoming appointment of an AI czar. This announcement comes as debates on the regulation of advanced models intensify in Washington.

The Graham law now offers Donald Trump a new economic arsenal against Russia and other countries that finance its energy sector. Enacted on September 18, this legal standard authorizes tariffs that can reach 100% against the main buyers of Russian oil and gas.

This Tuesday, September 15, the Senate failed to advance the CLARITY Act, with 49 votes against 50, while 60 were needed. After a year of negotiations, political disagreements, mainly around Donald Trump's crypto interests, thwarted the bill. This immediately shook crypto stocks on Wall Street. Can the CLARITY Act still be saved? Has Washington just indefinitely postponed the adoption of a federal framework for cryptos?

According to a new statement by Donald Trump, Iranian oil would become a lasting objective of the American presence. The president mentions a US presence in Iran modeled on Venezuela, without presenting any agreement or precise schedule.

The CLARITY Act returns to the Senate with a compromise that Republicans hope will be decisive. Donald Trump accepted new ethical restrictions targeting public officials involved in crypto, while the final text includes 126 changes requested by the Democrats. The bill now totals 635 pages. Cynthia Lummis, John Boozman, and Tim Scott presented it on Sunday, ahead of the procedural vote scheduled for Tuesday.

Trump is promising American adults $5,000, a plan Pompliano says could boost bitcoin despite major questions over how it would be funded.

3.56 million dollars worth of LAPTOP have just gone up in smoke. Two mentions, those of Eric Trump and Beeple, were enough to validate the first two political bets of Hunter Biden's anti-Trump memecoin, burning 10 million tokens while the crypto token already collapses 99.8% since its launch.

According to former federal prosecutor Renato Mariotti, the CLARITY Act is already "dead" in the U.S. Congress. However, the bill is still subject to a crucial procedural vote on September 15, which prevents its failure from being definitively confirmed.

The US trade deficit reached 88.6 billion dollars in July, a high since March 2025. Indeed, the gap evolved by 24.4% in thirty days despite the tariffs established by Donald Trump. This increase comes both from a rebound in imports and a decline in exports. Moreover, investments in artificial intelligence justify a significant part of the movement, as American companies acquired more computers, computer accessories, and semiconductors abroad.

The Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) has sanctioned Gabriel Perez, former teleprompter operator at the White House. He will have to pay 172,539.02 dollars after using non-public information to trade on the predictive markets platform Kalshi, notably on contracts related to Donald Trump's interventions.

Trump reportedly earned $1.4 billion from crypto in 2025, while Public Citizen estimates investor losses at $4.7 billion. Analysis.

Despite Trump’s decree on alternative assets, 77% of Americans consider crypto too risky for their retirement savings. Analysis.

Disagreements between the United States and Iran suddenly take on a new dimension. Washington has launched its "economic D-Day" against Tehran, with a massive strengthening of secondary sanctions on international financial flows. This campaign by the U.S. administration now threatens liquidity circuits. Moreover, it puts pressure on actors using alternative transfer systems. Between sanctions, compliance constraints, and risks of financial disruptions, the crypto universe is directly exposed.

Donald Trump's memecoin has just gained more than 80% in a few hours. TRUMP crossed the $3 mark before settling around $2.94. The move caught short sellers off guard: over $30 million worth of positions were liquidated within 24 hours. A rumor about a new crypto project from the Trump family was enough to start the momentum.

Trade talks between the United States and Canada suddenly failed this Friday, August 21. This failure has reignited tensions between the two North American countries. Given the entry into force of punitive tariffs and the announced Canadian retaliations, this conflict could therefore have repercussions on global liquidity, increase market uncertainty, and even affect risky assets. The crypto market and bitcoin would then be at the forefront of a new macroeconomic shock.

Eric Trump has just signed a written commitment to stay away from the management of the future deposit bank of World Liberty Financial. A goodwill gesture towards regulators. Except that the project is dragging a Justin Sun lawsuit still ongoing, and a loan that strongly recalls the worst hours of FTX.

Donald Trump pressures the American Senate. This Wednesday, the president gathered several major figures from the crypto industry at the White House to try to unblock the CLARITY Act. The text, stuck in Congress, now crystallizes a confrontation that goes beyond the mere regulation of cryptos. Washington is also playing its ability to maintain its technological lead over China, against a backdrop of political tensions and disagreements over the sector's framework.

Donald Trump mentions a legal entry of Hyperliquid into the United States. The HYPE crypto jumps 19%. All the details in this article!

Donald Trump gives Canada a three-day reprieve. The 50% tariffs that were supposed to take effect on August 19 are suspended while Washington and Ottawa finalize a trade agreement. Trump says the essential points are settled. Mark Carney talks rather about significant progress with still work to do. For markets, including crypto, a new deadline has simply replaced the old one.

The bitcoin market regains some momentum as tensions between Washington and Tehran dominate trading. BTC/USD surpassed 64,000 dollars, with a daily gain of more than 2%. Meanwhile, US stocks fell and gold accelerated, strengthening the divergence between major markets. This development comes as investors also watch derivatives, where funding rates signal a forceful long positioning in the markets.

The American crypto industry is now invited to the heart of power. Donald Trump is set to convene key figures from this ecosystem, prediction markets, and artificial intelligence at the White House. This meeting highlights the growing attention Washington is paying to these strategic sectors. Behind this meeting also lies the future direction of American policy towards these assets. Who will attend this meeting and what decisions might result?

Donald Trump opens the door to a new form of response against foreign criminal networks. In a memo signed on August 12, 2026, the American president authorizes certain licensed private companies to participate in cyber operations under federal supervision. Crypto scam networks are among the targets, but the precise rules of these interventions are still to be written.

Trump Media abandons two important aspects of its crypto partnership with Crypto.com. The group gives up on creating a listed company responsible for accumulating CRO. It also ends an agreement concerning certain future ETFs from Yorkville America. This decision marks a clear shift in priorities, without signifying a complete exit from the crypto market.

The TRUMP memecoin becomes a major political obstacle for American crypto regulation. Two senators demand an SEC investigation at the very moment the Senate is trying to save the CLARITY Act before its August break. The debate no longer only concerns the nature of the token. It directly touches on White House conflicts of interest.

Gabriel Perez, Donald Trump's teleprompter operator, no longer works for the U.S. federal government. He was accused of using confidential information to bet on the president's speeches via the Kalshi platform. His suspicious earnings reportedly exceed $100,000.

Markets will ultimately not get the hoped-for respite. As the temporary tariffs implemented 150 days ago expired, Donald Trump chose to revive the trade war by announcing, this Friday, a new wave of taxes targeting about sixty economies. Presented as a response to forced labor in certain supply chains, this offensive goes far beyond trade. It reignites tensions between the United States, China and the European Union, while fueling a new phase of volatility in financial markets and alternative assets.
