Eric Trump, son of U.S. President-elect Donald Trump, has expressed his belief that crypto reform is critical for the U.S. to remain competitive. Speaking ahead of his speech at the Bitcoin Conference in Abu Dhabi, Eric Trump described global banking systems as outdated. He argued that blockchain technology could outperform traditional financial systems in efficiency and cost.
Eric Trump Highlights the Need for Crypto Reform
During an interview with CNBC on December 9, Eric Trump criticized the inefficiencies in the current banking system, saying, “If you live in America, you want to go out and get a home loan; it takes you 90 days. How the hell does it take you 90 days to get a home loan? By then, the house is already sold, and your dream is gone.”
He emphasized that blockchain could streamline these processes, eliminating the need for excessive paperwork.
Eric Trump believes comprehensive crypto reform is necessary to ensure the U.S. doesn’t fall behind other nations. He noted that his father, Donald Trump, understands the importance of blockchain adoption and is committed to creating a regulatory framework that benefits the industry.

Eric Trump underscored the urgency of transparent and sensible regulations to drive the success of blockchain and cryptocurrency in the U.S. He stated, “We will have a clear road map, and hopefully the rest of the world follows that.”
According to Eric Trump, crypto reform will enable the U.S. to set an example as a global leader in the blockchain space.
Transparent Regulations for Blockchain Growth
The recent election of hundreds of pro-crypto candidates to Congress supports this vision. Industry analysts suggest this could lead to the most crypto-friendly legislative environment in U.S. history.
Eric Trump expressed optimism that the new administration will prioritize policies that foster innovation and create a stable environment for crypto businesses.
He also mentioned Elon Musk’s anticipated role in the upcoming government. Musk, alongside entrepreneur Vivek Ramaswamy, is expected to co-lead the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE).
Eric Trump praised Musk’s vision, stating, “I think we want to see real innovation again. I think we want to see the government get the hell out of the way of great business.”
His comments reflect a broader push for the U.S. to reclaim its leadership in blockchain innovation. The lack of clear regulations has driven many crypto firms overseas, weakening America’s position in the global market.
Eric Trump and his brother Donald Jr. have been linked to World Liberty Financial, a decentralized finance platform focused on advancing blockchain-based financial solutions.

In other news, Donald Trump’s commitment to crypto reform also includes his recent nomination of Paul Atkins, a pro-crypto advocate, to replace Gary Gensler as the SEC chair.
Announced on December 4, Atkins, a former SEC commissioner and CEO of Patomak Global Partners, brings expertise in risk management and a favorable stance on blockchain technology.
This move aligns with Trump’s campaign promise to create a more crypto-friendly regulatory environment, further solidifying his administration’s focus on advancing the industry.
