Headline (print edition): New York Times, 7/9/2025
The proposed language was included at the bottom of a bullet-pointed meeting agenda, according to a copy reviewed by The New York Times. Mr. Trump said he would “consider it,” Mr. Bailey, who runs the digital currency firm BTC Inc., recalled in an interview. “We had no idea if that was going to happen.”
That night, Mr. Trump fired off a Truth Social post containing the exact message proposed by the executives: “We want all the remaining Bitcoin to be MADE IN THE USA!!! It will help us be ENERGY DOMINANT!!!”
The post was one of the earliest successes in a high-stakes lobbying campaign by the crypto industry that has put huge sums of money behind Mr. Trump and reaped enormous rewards.
