Treasury Secretary Bessent Remarks at the Launch of the White House Digital Assets Report

Building the Golden Age of CryptoSecretary Scott BessentThe White HouseJuly 30, 2025 Introduction: The Next Digital FrontierGood afternoon. I’m grateful to be with you today. America is a frontier nation. From the Lewis and Clark Expedition to the present day, our people have always pushed boundaries—in exploration, politics, science, and technology. To be American is to be constantly moving, constantly innovating, and constantly living on the edge of what is possible. It’s only fitting, then, that we build the future on the frontier of digital finance. One year ago, almost to the day, President Trump promised to make the United States “the crypto capital of the world.” And he has delivered on that promise in every way.
