Investor poll shows 73% approval for Trump’s crypto policy, bullish views on prices increase

Over 70% of US crypto investors approve of President Donald Trump’s administration’s approach to crypto policy, according to a recent survey conducted by research firm HarrisX. 

HarrisX polled 1,096 adults online from June 18 to June 19, including 230 self-identified crypto investors.

Among that cohort, 81% said they follow the administration’s crypto actions, 73% approved of the policy track, and 71% judged those measures beneficial to the investment case for digital assets. 

Meanwhile, roughly 49% of all retail investors described the impact as positive, while 19% were unsure, and 17% viewed the policy mix as negative.

The poll’s margin of error was measured at plus or minus 6.5% for the crypto-investor subsample and plus or minus 3% for the general adult population.

Influence on allocation decisions

The report found that 64% of US crypto investors and 40% of retail investors stated that the administration’s policy makes them more likely to add digital assets to their portfolios. 

The intent lines up with a broader rise in risk appetite, as 82% of crypto investors consider the current environment a good entry point, up 9% from a March benchmark. Meanwhile, 73% plan to make purchases within 30 days, a 6% increase.

Bullish views on returns also accelerated, with 60% now expecting prices to rise over the next month, up 6% from March. Furthermore, 68% expect gains over the next 12 months, a 7% increase.

These outlook shifts accompany growing approval across other policy categories, but crypto remains the strongest area, producing a net approval score of +56%. By comparison, the survey recorded a 48% increase in reducing government costs and a 39% increase in the economy.

Segmentation and awareness gaps

The awareness of policy details among crypto investors far outpaces that of the general market. Roughly 81% of crypto investors said they were familiar with the policies, compared to 47% of all retail investors and 34% of the broader public.

HarrisX said the disparity highlights an opportunity for education campaigns targeting investors who remain undecided about the regulatory climate.

While 63% of crypto investors approved of the president’s overall performance in March, that figure climbed to 72% in June, mirroring gains in market sentiment.

HarrisX collected responses through multiple opt-in web panels and weighted the results to achieve demographic balance across age, gender, region, race, and income.
