As US election dust settles, crypto traders and analysts eye new administration

Traders and analysts across the Twittersphere and beyond chime in on crypto's future

While some in the community continue to question the outcome of the US Presidential election, mainstream media outlets and the Associated Press have definitively called the race for former Vice President and current President-Elect Joe Biden. 

But with uncertainty out of the way, traders and analysts are now looking to determine what a Biden administration will mean for cryptocurrencies — and they appear to have come to a loose consensus that a President who says nothing about crypto is preferable to a president who actively disparages it.

There has also been widespread speculation concerning the crypto inclinations of key appointees in the forthcoming administration. Compound general counsel Jake Chervinsky noted that whoever President-Elect Biden nominates to posts will be more important than incoming President's personal opinions:

To that end, Politico first reported that former CFTC chairman and Obama appointee Gary Gensler, best known for his hardline enforcement of Wall Street regulations in the wake of the 2008 financial crisis, would be a part of Biden’s transition team.

Major outlets also reported two weeks ago that economist Lael Brainard, the former Federal Reserve governor who led a MIT joint effort to research CBDCs, is a frontrunner for Treasury secretary.

For all the guesswork, however, US stock market open come Monday will ultimately paint a clearer picture for speculators. Said one popular Twitter trader:
