According to CryptoSlate, Trump promised to relax cryptocurrency enforcement during his campaign, and current and former US government lawyers said at a meeting in New York on Friday that this change will happen as Trump readjusts the policies of the Department of Justice and regulatory agencies. Lawyers have stated that cryptocurrency fraud cases will not receive a free pass, but they are no longer a priority. The focus of government agencies and departments may shift to areas such as immigration enforcement, which was another promise made during Trump's campaign. Scott Hartman, co chair of the Securities and Commodities Working Group at the Manhattan United States Attorney's Office, stated that the office will reduce resource investment in cryptocurrency related crimes. This means that the number of prosecutors handling cryptocurrency cases will decrease compared to the year 2022 when the cryptocurrency industry collapsed and triggered a 'crypto winter'. @driveinsetting
