With approximately 50 million people in the United States holding digital assets, the importance of user sovereignty is gradually coming to the forefront. In this context, President Donald Trump has publicly expressed clear support for the right to self-custody of cryptocurrencies, which is seen as a policy stance aimed at strengthening individuals’ financial control.

This position, recently revealed through Coin Bureau, conveys a message that the centralized management in the Bitcoin and other digital asset ecosystems should shift towards protecting the rights of individual users. The right to self-custody means that users can directly manage and control their cryptocurrencies, serving as a key factor in ensuring both asset independence and security.

Currently, this policy stance of the U.S. government reflects an intention to protect fundamental rights in an evolving digital financial environment. As the cryptocurrency market grows and the importance of user sovereignty becomes increasingly prominent, Trump’s support is interpreted as a signal that could steer regulatory discussions in a new direction.
