Bo Hines who is the Executive Director of the White House Crypto Council left the post on August 9, 2025. This marked the end of his 8-month tenure, during which he was at the center of the Trump admin’s crypto policy. Via a statement on X, he described his role as that of a lifetime which he was honored to have. He put in work with AI Crypto Czar David Sacks, which, in his words, positioned the U.S. as the crypto capital of the world.

Hines will transition back to the private sector but will still come forward to the administration in a role of special government employee to advise on AI initiatives. Patrick Witt, who is a defense and strategic capital expert, will take over his role. He succeeds Bo Hines in leadership.

Key Achievements Under Bo Hines

During the productive tenure of Bo Hines, there were a number of groundbreaking changes to the U.S. digital asset policy:

  • White House Digital Asset Policy Report: This report came out in July. It included 100+ legislative and regulatory measures put forth by them.
  • GENIUS Act: In July of 2025, the first federal framework for payment stablecoins was signed into law. It requires full backing by U.S. dollars or low-risk assets.
  • Strategic Bitcoin Reserve: Initiatives were put in place to store and secure about 200,000 BTC as a national asset. This positions Bitcoin as a component of U.S. economic infrastructure.

Hines had meetings with over 150 crypto industry leaders in three months. This included dialogue between policy makers and the private sector. It showcased Bo Hines’ commitment to collaboration.

Patrick Witt’s Incoming Agenda

Patrick Witt, who is the Deputy Executive Director of the Crypto Council and Acting Director of the Department of Defense’s Office of Strategic Capital, will now take the reins. Witt’s background in defense tech and capital management sees a turn away from traditional assets. His focus is on Bitcoin as a national infrastructure asset, which includes using the Office’s $5 billion loan program. This has a chance to expand to $200 billion. His agenda follows Bo Hines, aiming to sustain crypto advancements.

Market And Industry Reactions

Crypto markets saw a positive response to Hines’ support of innovation during his term as head. Bitcoin saw a 15% jump to $110,000 post Strategic Bitcoin Reserve reports. Also at the time, Industry leaders that included MoonPay President Keith Grossman reported that Hines did a “great job”. He managed policy for growth, highlighting Bo Hines’ successful leadership.

However, critics reported on the issue of delay in the Strategic Bitcoin Reserve’s implementation. They also noted that the transparency of the U.S. government’s Bitcoin holdings is a problem. They think it is much less than what is reported.

Looking Ahead

Bo Hines’ exit marks the end of an era where the US greatly transformed its role in global crypto affairs. While Witt’s in office will undoubtedly bring the same pro-crypto approach as before. However, the focus may be on infrastructure and institutional integration. This aims to build upon Bo Hines’ framework.

In the coming months, the White House Crypto Council will play a key role in establishing the U.S. as the world’s primary destination for digital assets. As Hines noted in his farewell message on X, the next chapter will be about turning bold policy visions into timely and practical results.
