Trump economic advisor Scott Bessent told the Financial Times on Sunday that a potential new U.S. government led by Donald Trump will support a strong US dollar, consistent with U.S. policy for decades, easing concerns about a devaluation of the dollar during Trump's presidency. Bessent said, "Reserve currencies can fluctuate based on market conditions. I believe if you have good economic policies, you will naturally have a strong US dollar." In other words, the potential Trump presidency, while likely to have a positive impact on digital assets, may feature a strong dollar, which often restricts the rise of high-risk assets priced in dollars such as cryptocurrencies.
