The Trump era begins: SEC launches crypto task force led by 'Crypto Mom' Hester Peirce

 Bitcoin had a fairly quiet 24 hours as the market waited for US President Donald Trump to make an announcement. Still, flying under the radar were the spot Bitcoin ETFs, which racked up the best part of $2 billion of inflows in two trading days! Then, the SEC launched a crypto task force led by “Crypto Mom” Hester Peirce, Elon Musk’s DOGE agency launched its website with the Dogecoin logo, ETH struggled amid continued drama behind the scenes and then Trump officially pardoned Silk Road founder Ross Ulbricht.
