Donald Trump is projected to have won the 2024 U.S. presidential election after capturing pivotal swing states, securing a second term in office. With projections from The New York Times giving Trump 312 electoral votes, major outlets including The Hill and Decision Desk HQ have declared his victory. In a speech to supporters in Florida, Trump expressed plans for “national renewal,” emphasizing immigration reform and national unity.
The election outcome holds particular significance for the crypto industry, as new legislation could reshape the regulatory landscape for digital assets, central bank digital currencies (CBDCs), and broader market oversight. Trump praised Elon Musk, calling him “a new star,” and highlighted Starlink’s contributions during recent natural disasters.
With his focus on reinforcing U.S. security and economic stability, the president-elect also addressed his vision to prevent conflict, saying, “I’m not gonna start a war; I’m gonna stop wars.”
