El presidente dent Donald Trump publicó en Truth Social que no habría lugar para Jamie Dimon en su administración antes de agradecerle a Dimon por su contribución a los EE. UU. La declaración se produce casi una semana después de que Dimon revelara que no tenía intención de dejar su puesto. como director ejecutivo de JPMorgan Chase.
La declaración de Trump también se produce mientras se prepara para seleccionar miembros de su gabinete y otros cargos públicos para ayudarlo a cumplir las promesas que hizo durante su campaña electoral. Se especuló que Dimon competiría por el puesto de Secretario del Tesoro de Estados Unidos.
El dent de JPMorgan Chase es muy conocido en la industria financiera como una figura prominente, lo que aumenta las especulaciones sobre su idoneidad para el puesto. Sin embargo, Dimon le dijo a CBS Marketwatch la semana pasada que continuaría ocupando el puesto que ocupó en JPMorgan durante mucho tiempo o "hasta que la junta lo echara".
Los miembros de la junta directiva de la empresa de Wall Street felicitaron a Trump por su victoria en las elecciones y prometieron contribuir a la actual administración. Los funcionarios del banco reiteraron sus asociaciones actuales con el gobierno a lo largo de los años y prometieron que nada sería diferente durante la administración de Trump.

The president-elect plans to engage a pro-crypto team to achieve his mission of making the U.S. the global crypto capital. Trump promised to create better and clearer regulations for the crypto community, employ a pro-crypto U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) chair, and introduce an industry-loyalist presidential committee and crypto advisory board.
Trump’s win came from his pro-crypto supporters in Congress and Senate, besides crypto company executives. The president-elect got a huge inflow of funds during his campaign from crypto, showing the faith the community has. Pro-crypto supporters, such as SpaceX’s Elon Musk, also boosted his popularity in the crypto space.
Some crypto executives, including Ripple’s Brad Garlinghouse, suggested that Trump begin by making changes at the U.S. SEC and firing Gary Gensler. Garlinghouse also requested more regulatory clarity the commission has failed to offer the U.S. crypto community.
That said, Jamie Dimon has been passive during the entire election, supporting neither Trump nor Harris. The JPMorgan president has also been quiet about crypto during his tenure as the Wall Street company’s executive.
Trump’s leading pick for Treasury Secretary — billionaire hedge fund investor Scott Bessent — is very pro-crypto, particularly pro-Bitcoin.

The billionaire hedge fund and pro-crypto investor Scott Bessent is reportedly the top pick for the position Dimon was speculated to vie for. Another prominent investor, John Paulson, is also allegedly among the options for the U.S. Treasury’s top job.
Fox Business’s Eleanor Terrett reported about some statements released by Bessent. The investor congratulated the president-elect for his election win before commenting that Trump would give crypto the freedom it required.
Bessent also confirmed that all the cards lie with BTC, which has seen significant growth since Trump’s victory. The investor believed that the king crypto could attract younger generations while still embracing people who have never explored crypto before.
