The 2025 Most Influential List Revealed: How Policymakers Are Reshaping the Cryptocurrency Industry Landscape

【Crypto World】In the recent annual influential figures list, U.S. President Trump ranks first. This is not surprising—he has directly reshaped the political landscape of the cryptocurrency industry through a series of executive orders, legislative pressures, and commercial strategies.

Interestingly, the list reflects a broader trend: the influence of policymakers is clearly rising in 2025. What does this mean? It indicates that regulation and policy have become core variables in industry development, no longer peripheral topics.

The head of the Blockchain Industry Association emphasized a key point in a comment— the entire industry needs to build a unified narrative. In other words, all parties need to find consensus and form a consistent voice outward, so they can gain more influence in policy negotiations.

However, progress in reality has been less than ideal. Legislation related to the U.S. digital asset market is still in negotiations, hearings in the Senate committee have not yet been officially scheduled, and parties are still bargaining over clauses related to financial stability and ethical considerations. This stalemate means that genuine policy implementation will still take time.
