He is expected to step down from the role on January 20 after Donald Trump’s inauguration. Trump has already mentioned his plan to sack Gensler from the SEC during his election campaign days. This decision has to be the result of his anti-crypto approaches under Joe Biden’s presidency. Gensler is a strict foe of cryptocurrency projects but we all know Trump is an ardent admirer of cryptocurrency, so this sacking is not an unexpected one in American politics.

The dismissal of Gary Gensler from the SEC has already initiated favorable market trends for cryptocurrency projects. The news of Gary Gensler’s exit from the Securities and Exchange Commission has triggered and enabled bullish momentum in crypto markets.

Bitcoin has already shown unparalleled growth right after Trump’s victory. The price spike of BTC doesn’t need to be integrated with Gensler’s exit. But it has some effects on it too, the total change in the cryptocurrency policy will affect all the projects. BTC has also benefitted from the exit of Gary Gensler from the Securities and Exchange Commission.
