Joe Biden won the 2020 Presidential Election after defeating incumbent Donald Trump. The current president has outlined many priorities and signed many executive orders since taking office, including a recent cryptocurrency regulation order.

Here’s a look at how some top cryptocurrencies have performed during his time in office.

What Happened: Biden signed an executive order last week “to establish the first-ever comprehensive federal digital assets strategy for the United States.”

The executive order was put in place to establish cryptocurrency regulation.

“An American approach to digital assets is one that encourages innovation but mitigates the risks to customers, investors, and businesses, broader financial stability, and the environment,” the White House said after the order was signed.

The new executive order did not announce what regulations would take place in the cryptocurrency sector, leaving many to question what it could mean going forward.

Cryptocurrencies have been volatile over the last year during Biden’s time in office. The COVID-19 pandemic, rising inflation and more recently an invasion of Ukraine by Russia have led to spikes in the price of several of the top cryptocurrencies.
