The crypto czar era just ended.

David Sacks — Trump's White House AI & Crypto Czar — is stepping down and moving to co-chair the President's Council of Advisors on Science and Technology (PCAST).

Here's what you need to know:

• Sacks hit the 130-day limit for "special government employees" — Democrats had already flagged this issue back in September

• He oversaw the passage of the GENIUS Act (stablecoin regulation) and pushed the crypto market structure bill forward

• The new PCAST lineup is stacked: Marc Andreessen, Jensen Huang (NVIDIA), Lisa Su (AMD), Sergey Brin (Google), Mark Zuckerberg (Meta), Fred Ehrsam (Coinbase backer)

• In his Bloomberg interview about the new role, Sacks mentioned AI, quantum computing, and nuclear power — but NOT crypto

• No replacement for the crypto czar position has been announced

The silence on crypto is telling. With the market structure bill still in limbo and BTC struggling below $69K (-3.2% in 24h), the timing raises questions about who drives crypto policy at the White House going forward.

Major regulatory momentum could stall without a clear point person. Or maybe that's the point — let the bills speak for themselves.
