## What changed

The President’s Working Group delivered a coordinated roadmap recommending legislation and specific agency actions on digital-asset classification, trading, custody, banking, stablecoins, DeFi, tax, and illicit finance. The recommendations are not themselves binding law or agency relief.

## Who it affects

- Congress and federal financial regulators
- Advisers, funds, custodians, banks, broker-dealers, platforms, issuers, and clients

## What is still open

- Which recommendations will be adopted and on what timetable
- How agencies will reconcile the roadmap with existing statutes and pending litigation

## What it means for an advisor

- Use the report as a policy roadmap and source index, not as current permission
- Track each implementing action under its own stable matter and legal posture

## Previous interpretation

Executive Order 14178 required recommendations but the working group had not yet delivered its consolidated roadmap.
