Trump’s electoral campaign focused on cryptography, and already in its first 100 days in office, we have seen progress in support of the cryptographic industry. Canada celebrated a choice on Monday: can we expect the same focus on cryptography in other regions?
In the cryptography of today’s advisors, Morva Rohani of the Canadian web3 council explains what this political change for advisors means and why it is important to align cryptography with the updates of the financial system.

Canada’s choice: cryptography must be aligned with financial modernization
Canadians have voted. While digital assets are not a priority on the agenda of the new government, there is the opportunity to position Crypto as part of the broader financial modernization efforts of Canada. Whether the liberal party finally forms a close majority or a strengthened minority, the direction is clear. Stability is fragile, and political capital will focus on economic resilience.
This approach has only sharpened with the return to President Trump, whose economic strategy includes both radical tariffs in Canadian goods and open support for cryptographic infrastructure in the United States. In that context, the Canadian digital asset sector must pivot its message.
Financial innovation will move, but with caution
The background of the Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney as a central banker point to an approach to the systemic risk, the stability of monetary policy and prudent innovation. Crypto will not be an element of the upper agenda, but Stablecoins, the modernization of payments and the Blockchain -based settlement infrastructure could find a place under a broader modernization umbrella.
This means preparing for some emerging trends:
- Stage efforts where they improve the speed and payment security
- A possible impulse for custody reforms that would expand customer access to digital asset solutions that meet
- A gradual movement towards clearer regulatory expectations, with emphasis on due diligence and integrity of the market
Crypto has the potential to be treated as financial infrastructure instead of an atypical speculative value, but only if the industry strategically advocates and is positioned as part of Canada’s economic modernization.
Global pressures are accelerating change
While Canada moves cautiously, other markets are moving quickly. The Mica frame of the European Union is now live. The United Kingdom is advancing with Stablecoin licenses. In the United States, the return of President Trump has presented an aggressive impulse for cryptography as part of its economic strategy, along with radical tariffs in Canadian exports. This combination has forced economic modernization at the top of the agenda in Ottawa.
Digital assets are increasingly used as economic tools, not just financial experiments. Trump’s position has reformulated Crypto as part of national competitiveness, and other jurisdictions are responding. For Canada to remain relevant, the integration of blockchain and digital payments in the country’s financial infrastructure is no longer just an innovation work; It is becoming a strategic need. That is the case that the industry will have to present in Ottawa.
Here is a general description of where the key encryption initiatives are in several jurisdictions currently:
Jurisdiction |
2025 key cryptography development |
State |
---|---|---|
Canada | Commercial rules for cryptographic platforms and custody requirements are in force, but need a greater national consistency. There is still no clear frame for Stablecoins. | Partially implemented but fragmented |
USA | Rapid expansion of cryptographic infrastructure initiatives under the Trump administration; There is no integral federal framework yet | Accelerator |
European Union | Complete regulatory framework for stablecoins, commercial platforms and tokens backed by assets through Mica | Fully implemented |
United Kingdom | The licensing rules and custody of Stablecoin crypto advance towards the end | Ongoing |
Australia | Completed tokens classification; Legislation for Stablecoins and ongoing commercial platforms | Ongoing |
Singapore | License regime for fully operational digital payment tokens; Delete the rules of stablcoin and custody instead | Fully implemented |
Dubai (EAU) | Comprehensive licenses for virtual assets and cryptographic businesses through the regulatory authority of virtual assets | Fully implemented |
What comes next: a strategic pivot for industry and advisors
Canada’s political panorama is changing. In order for the digital asset industry to make significant progress, cryptography must reposition as an essential financial infrastructure. The approach must be in resilience, modernization and economic competitiveness, not speculation. Defense efforts must link digital assets a broader national priorities, such as updating payment systems, improving financial stability and maintaining Canada’s economic relevance in a changing global economy.
This approach is also important for advisors and investors. As the regulatory frameworks evolve, the demand for exposure to compatible and diversified digital assets will only grow. Those who understand how cryptography fits into trustworthy financial structures and who frame it as part of a broader modernization of financial services, will be better positioned to capture new opportunities.
Those who adopt this early mentality, both in the industry and advice sectors, will not only help shape the next generation of Canada’s financial regulation, but will also be better to benefit from the growth and innovation they follow.

Q. How have the recent elections of the United States change the cryptographic regulatory landscape?
TO. The 2024 elections in the United States marked the change of an important change in cryptographic regulation. In the last three months, the Trump administration has made several significant movements in line with the promises that the president made to the industry. This includes an executive order to establish a strategic Bitcoin reserve, the appointment of a cryptographic tsar, the creation of a cryptographic working group and, round table discussions on topics such as taxonomy, tokenized values, custody, registration and defi. Even key regulatory bodies have terminated their guide that discouraged the participation of cryptography banks.
All these movements have been in an attempt to position the United States as leader in the digital asset space. Since the US cryptographic market. UU. It is the largest and most influential in the world, these positive developments are likely to promote cryptographic regulations worldwide.
In general, for the first time, we are obtaining a friendly regulatory environment with cryptographic, although more clarity and adequate framework will take time to establish themselves.
Q. How are the political landscapes affected throughout the world the development and adoption of Stablecoin?
TO. One of the best cases for the use of cryptographic, Stablecoins, has become an important part of the financial system and, naturally, attracted regulatory scrutiny. But the global regulatory environment is still fragmented, creating uncertainty.
In the United States, authorities are actively working on Stablecoin regulations. However, the EU and Asia are not interested in the stable of the United States. The stablecoins, after all, undermine local currencies and allow capital flight, which takes the countries to Fiat Digital, which further complicates the matter.
But with the world advancing towards a digital financial system, the benefits of stablecoins, including financial inclusion, faster and fastest cross -border payments, which allows Defi’s participation and even serving as coverage against inflation, it simply cannot be ignored. This means that countries must recognize the growing popularity and demand for stable, and adopt innovation, or risk being left behind.
