According to The Block, US President Trump posted on social media in support of his appointed CFTC Chairman Michael Selig's push to expand jurisdiction over the prediction market. Trump said it is "crucial" to maintain the exclusive jurisdiction of the CFTC over the forecasting market and stated that the forecasting market should thrive. In the past year, Selig has filed relevant lawsuits against five states. Trump also emphasized his support for the cryptocurrency industry, calling the United States the "capital of cryptocurrency assets such as Bitcoin".
