Brian Armstrong, the CEO of a major US-based cryptocurrency exchange, recently shared significant insights. He attributed Donald Trump’s electoral success to factors such as the US economy, immigration, and the government’s stance on cryptocurrency. Moreover, Republicans notably gained a majority in both the Senate and the House of Representatives.
DOGE and Trump
Republicans secured 218 out of 435 House seats, achieving a majority. Five seats remain undecided; however, even if Democrats win all, Republicans will still hold the majority. In the Senate, Republicans took 53 of the 100 seats, leaving 47 to the Democrats.
Elon Musk endorsed Trump to reduce government spending and enhance efficiency, announcing the D.O.G.E Department. Despite the name’s resemblance to Dogecoin 
$0.361892, it is unrelated to the meme coin. Nonetheless, this announcement did not prevent Dogecoin’s price from rising above $0.42 during the elections.
Coinbase CEO’s Remarks
Brian Armstrong commented on the newly created Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE), which will be headed by billionaire Elon Musk and Vivek Ramaswamy. He sees this as an opportunity to “increase economic freedom” in the US and restore governmental structures.
“DOGE represents a unique chance to enhance economic freedom and reduce government size in the US,” he stated. Armstrong emphasized that the founding fathers, although brilliant, may have overlooked incentives that expand governmental size over time. He proposed that constitutional amendments limiting government spending could be necessary to prove this in the future.
