Survey Finds 62% of US Voters Distrust Trump on Crypto Oversight, Late-April Polling Shows

According to a Public Opinion Strategies survey commissioned by CoinDesk, 62% of registered US voters do not trust President Donald Trump’s administration to oversee the crypto industry, based on late-April polling of 1,000 voters with a credibility interval of about 3.5 percentage points.

The survey also found 73% of respondents oppose senior government officials having personal business dealings in crypto, and only 1% ranked crypto as their top 2026 midterm issue—far behind cost of living at 36%. Trump’s overall approval rating stood at 40%, despite his administration backing digital-asset market-structure legislation and appointing crypto-friendly regulators.

Hong Kong issues its first two stablecoin licenses! The HKMA reveals the conditions for subsequent issuances: a steady push to roll them out, with tight control over the number

The Hong Kong Monetary Authority has issued its first stablecoin issuance licences to HSBC and AnchorX Financial (a joint venture between Standard Chartered Hong Kong, Hong Kong Telecom, and Anz). The two are positioned for retail payments and enterprise cross-border settlement, and will roll out stablecoins for different uses by mid-year and year-end. The regulator said it will decide whether to issue additional licences after observing actual operations and risks, and the number of licences will be strictly controlled. Stablecoins are expected to reduce the cost of cross-border remittances, speed up payments, and in the long run enable second-level account crediting through AI automation of payments.
