At the Bitcoin 2025 conference in Las Vegas, Vice President JD Vance emphasised the pivotal role of the Bitcoin Policy Institute (BPI) in shaping America’s digital asset strategy.
In his keynote, Vance urged the crypto community to keep providing feedback and to help policymakers understand how Bitcoin can contribute to the nation’s strategic future, noting,
“I know the Bitcoin Policy Institute is working on this very topic now”.
Building on this momentum, the BPI is preparing for its highly anticipated Bitcoin Policy Summit in Washington, D.C., on June 25.
The summit will convene a distinguished roster of speakers, including CIA Deputy Director Michael Ellis, SEC Commissioner Hester Peirce, Senators Cynthia Lummis, Jim Justice, and Marsha Blackburn.
Representatives Ritchie Torres, Nick Begich, Warren Davidson, Zach Nunn, and Tom Emmer, plus Bo Hines from the White House Council on Digital Assets, will also attend.

BPI Executive Director Matthew Pines welcomed the Vice President’s recognition, stating that Vance’s call for “concrete guidance on Bitcoin’s role in U.S. strategy shows how critical digital assets have become to winning the next phase of technological acceleration and great-power competition”.
The summit is expected to address issues ranging from regulatory clarity and national security to the strategic potential of a dollar-anchored Bitcoin ecosystem, reflecting the growing mainstream acceptance of digital assets in U.S. policy circles.
