How will Trump's presidency reshape the institutional crypto landscape?

In this episode of 'Bitcoin, Fiat & Rock’n’Roll' (BFRR), we dive deep into the seismatic shifts reshaping the landscape of blockchain adoption in January 2025. Following Trump's inauguration and Bitcoin's ATH at $109,356, our expert panel unpacks the implications of potential strategic crypto reserves and evolving regulatory frameworks.

Our expert panel engages in a dynamic discussion spanning multiple critical themes: Ethereum’s strategic challenges, Trump’s inauguration, the surge of political tokens, and their unprecedented market impact. Alexander Bechtel (DWS), Michael Blaschke (SAP), Stefan Grasmann (Zühlke), and Max Vargas (Blockstories) collectively analyze the revolutionary potential of Agentic AI in the crypto space, while offering deep insights into digital asset market trends and institutional adoption patterns. Their diverse perspectives from traditional finance, enterprise blockchain, technology consulting, and market analysis create a comprehensive view of the current crypto landscape.

The conversation extends to crucial developments in the stablecoin sector, including Circle's strategic acquisition of Hashnote and USDC's milestone of $1 trillion monthly transactions. The panel also examines the implications of new crypto custody licenses in Europe and Luxembourg's groundbreaking blockchain legislation, providing a comprehensive view of the institutional DLT landscape.
