Excitement is building in the crypto world as everyone looks forward to the White House Crypto Summit on March 7. There’s a buzz going around that President Donald Trump might announce a zero capital gains tax on crypto sales, a decision that could shake up the entire U.S. crypto market. But is there any real proof behind these rumors?
Investor and crypto analyst Mike Alfred sparked the conversation with a tweet that sent shockwaves through the industry. He claimed that “sources say the Trump administration preparing to announce zero capital gains on crypto sales at Friday’s crypto summit.”
If this is true, people could sell crypto without paying capital gains tax, making the U.S. a more attractive place for investors and crypto businesses.
Adding to the speculation, Sumit Gupta, CEO of CoinDCX, tweeted , “Zero capital gains tax on crypto in the US? We will need to wait till Friday for a real confirmation. But any changes to reduce crypto taxes will have a net positive effect on the global crypto ecosystem!”
Popular crypto influencer The Bitcoin Therapist also added fuel to the fire, posting in all caps, “RUMORS ARE CIRCULATING TRUMP PLANS TO ANNOUNCE ZERO CAPITAL GAINS ON CRYPTO AT WHITE HOUSE CRYPTO SUMMIT ON FRIDAY.”
Despite the hype, no official confirmation has been made regarding this tax policy. However, Trump’s recent moves suggest a strong push for pro-crypto policies.
Crypto analysts speculated that the summit might focus on broader incentives for the industry. They suggested that discussions could include tax breaks for U.S.-based crypto projects, preferential treatment for American-made tokens, and incentives for blockchain developers to return to the U.S.
The excitement over Trump’s stance on crypto escalated further after his March 2 announcement regarding the establishment of a U.S. Crypto Reserve. Posting on Truth Social, Trump confirmed that the reserve would include XRP, Solana (SOL), and Cardano (ADA), with Bitcoin (BTC) and Ethereum (ETH) later added to the list.
The crypto community is anxiously waiting for March 7, hoping for a major policy shift. If Trump delivers on zero capital gains tax for crypto, it could draw big investors, boost long-term holding, and put the U.S. at the forefront of digital assets. But for now, it’s all speculation.
