US President Donald Trump recently launched the National Cyber Strategy, which clearly signals that crypto and blockchain are now under the US government's protection radar.
For the first time in the history of the US cybersecurity strategy, cryptocurrency technology is explicitly mentioned as something that needs to be protected and strengthened, marking an official recognition of its important role in the future digital economy.
However, this six-page document is not just a hope for crypto enthusiasts.
Several statements also hint that the government may crack down on illegal crypto-related activities, including the use of privacy coins, crypto mixers, and unregulated financial channels that allow digital money to be transferred without supervision.
In addition, the strategy also outlines future technological challenges.
The threat of quantum computers to the security of Bitcoin and blockchain is taken seriously, with the government planning to accelerate the use of post-quantum cryptography to ensure that digital systems remain safe from future high-tech attacks.
Trump also emphasized that America must continue to be a leading power in the cyber world.
From AI security to developing a new generation of cyber workforce, this strategy not only aims to protect today's technology, but also prepares the country for tomorrow's digital challenges.
