America is embracing Bitcoin. Now what?

Bitcoin is one of the 10 largest assets in the world, worth ~$2 trillion.
Countries all across the globe are purchasing billions of dollars worth of bitcoin in real time, with the goal of outcompeting the US in the emerging technology race.
The US cannot afford to lose this race — which is why President Trump released a comprehensive Digital Assets Executive Order with the intent of making the US the global leader in Bitcoin.
