On January 23, 2025, President Trump issued Executive Order “STRENGTHENING AMERICAN LEADERSHIP IN DIGITAL FINANCIAL TECHNOLOGY” with the express intention “to promote United States leadership in digital assets and financial technology while protecting economic liberty.” The Executive Order consists of seven sections with Sec. 1 dedicated to the purpose and policies of the Executive Order and Sec. 2 dedicated to definitions for interpretation of the Executive Order. Sec. 6 is directed to the severability of provisions in the Executive Order and Sec. 7 is directed to general provisions applicable to the entire Executive Order.
Sections 3-5 of the Executive Order describe the substantive requirements of the Executive Order and explain the specific steps existing government agencies must take as well as the creation of a working group focused on the Digital Asset Markets. Some of the clauses of Sections 3-5 have deadlines associated with them. We have compiled these deadlines into a document for your perusal.
