The CEO of Cantor Fitzgerald is banking Tether and is a pro-crypto maximalist likely to provide advice on digital assets—something that would correspond perfectly with Trump’s growing interest in the sector lately.
The Trump campaign announced that Ohio Senator JD Vance would be a vice presidential running mate to the GOP nominee, while his sons, Eric and Donald Jr., would be honorary co-chairs of the transition team. This team will have to prepare for the second term through researching candidates to be placed in top administration positions and shaping the policy agenda.
Previous transitions haven’t been easy for Trump. Back in 2016, he jettisoned Chris Christie, formerly New Jersey Governor, shortly after his election victory, which put the transition off to a rocky start. In 2020, Trump’s team was criticized for not cooperating with President-elect Joe Biden’s transition efforts as Trump continued to dispute the election results.
For the crypto industry, Lutnick’s involvement is a huge win, as he has previously been an influential advocate for both stablecoins and Bitcoin within political circles.
Under his leadership, Cantor Fitzgerald has just pledged up to $2 billion to support Bitcoin investors; it could double if demand calls for it. The CEO of Cantor Fitzgerald also voiced very loud support for Bitcoin, likening it to no other than gold, stating that it should trade free of restrictions.
