Trump’s White House Cybersecurity Roundtable Sidesteps Crypto

U.S. President Donald Trump hosted a White House roundtable focused on cybercrime on Wednesday, citing large losses suffered by Americans and highlighting government actions aimed at stopping criminals who operate through online scams. The event comes amid heightened political scrutiny over allegations that Trump and members of his administration have profited from digital-asset-related activity. Trump said “countless” Americans lost more than $20 billion to cybercrime in 2025, describing a range of tactics including impersonation schemes, ransomware attacks, scam centers, and other methods.
