Could Cryptocurrencies Trigger a Financial Crisis? ECB Official Warns: Trump Administration Is Sowing the Seeds!

TradingKey - A member of the European Central Bank's Governing Council warns that the U.S. government is planting the seeds for financial turmoil, but Trump remains unfazed.  

Recently, Francois Villeroy de Galhau, a member of the European Central Bank's Governing Council, warned that the U.S. government's support for cryptocurrencies and non-bank finance could lay the groundwork for the next financial crisis.

Villeroy stated, "Financial crises often originate in the U.S. before spreading globally. By encouraging the development of crypto assets and non-bank finance, the U.S. government is sowing the seeds for future instability." He added, "Europe's regulatory system is more robust, and the eurozone is not at risk of a banking crisis."

During his campaign for the U.S. presidency, Trump frequently expressed support for cryptocurrencies in public, proposing plans such as establishing a cryptocurrency strategic reserve and turning the U.S. into the global crypto hub, while also improving crypto regulations.

Since taking office, Trump has continuously advanced his crypto-related promises and plans, drawing global attention but also sparking skepticism and criticism. This situation is reminiscent of El Salvador's president purchasing Bitcoin and adopting it as legal tender in earlier years. However, Trump remains unfazed and continues to push forward with cryptocurrency development.
